Hey I love the artstyle, very impressive!
Very creative idea, with nice art and audio. I was definitely a little confused at the start but still had fun. Thanks for jamming with us!
Thanks for taking it for a spin! And thank you again for hosting and organizing the jam, I had a lot of fun making this and now playing everyone's games.
Very fun game.
The art is amazing though the inconsistent pixel sizes bother me a bit. The audio is very good, I like the sound effects and the music with its evolving nature is awesome.
The gameplay simple but very fun, I like how frantic it is. It gets a bit too difficult at the end for me, I can't quite figure out in exactly what ratio am I supposed to plant the seeds in order to get enough feeding plants to the eye when both enemies are out.
It's a well crafted game overall, well done!
Thank you for playing and for the feedback! I'm really happy that you had fun with it. Our music and sound contributors, Rob and Becky, will be happy to hear that you liked it! We adjusted some of the sprite sizes very late in the jam, so it's totally fair that the differences in pixel size stood out. The difficulty was also under heavy revisions right up until the end. We have some things to improve with this one for sure.
I read the explanation on the store page & I was planting both plants but I had no idea what was happening lol. And I guess that was honestly just fine somehow. It all looks really amazing.
Thank you for playing it! I agree that it could use some more explaining mechanically. That's close to the top of our list of changes in an eventual update. I know mangoshake will be happy to hear that you liked the art!
I, in fact, am thrilled that you like the look of it :D - thanks for playing!
the way my fingers were click-clack-clackin' across my keyboard is a testament to how badly i wanted to beat this game; i got soooo close on my second try, but alas, victory is fickle - tho i will very likely return to beat it soon.
love the art, the music and it's buildup, the gameplay, the difficulty. i still don't really know what's happening and honestly, i don't wanna know, cause that's the fun of it, trial and error with different strategies until i win.
really great job! gives me Overcooked vibes .
Thank you so much! I'll refrain from giving away any tips about the mechanics, but I'm so happy that you enjoyed the challenge! I owe a lot to my collaborators for the art, music, and sound effects.
If you do come back and beat it, I'd love to know! It makes me very happy to see people defeat our game haha
took me 9 tries!!! i literally had to sleep on it each night and try again the next day so that my brain could think of different strategies lol cause ohhhyy my that's hard haha. the sounds and art are incredible. the victory is satisfying. so good.
Oh wow, you just made my day! Thank you for playing it so many times and reaching victory!
Really stoked to hear this - I did the art and I still haven't beaten it, but benignchaos and my brother Rob (who did the music) both beat it. So, it's very much doable.. which means I will be getting back to it as well, because I have to beat it before we balance it or I'll forever be a tourist to our own game and that's not okay.
ur pixel art is so good!! i'm learning pixel and it's hard, but i'm slowly getting the hang of it....and ya you gotta beat it pre-nerf - glhf it's hard! lol
I realy like the gameplay but I think it needed a bit more explanation (especialy with the bars) cause I died twice and I'm still not sure why. Cool game though
Thanks for playing it! I agree that the game needs more explanation. The blue bar is a timer and the game will end if the time is up before you fill the green bar. We spent so long tweaking it near the end that we didn't have time to add anything like that.
Thank you to everyone who has played and rated the game so far! For any new players, the game is tough but I promise it's beatable!
Hint: The game has two kinds of plants. When it gets tough near the end, make sure you're planting both types!
