It's a nice cozy game (bit stressful at times though maybe), I like the artstyle generally and for some reason it's really endearing that the player hops everywhere with a cute sound effect, lol. I definitely did not do very well though, at least partially because I hit a bug at some point where I could no longer water plants (it just stopped working, even though the UI said it was full and I could not fill it any more, idk maybe it was user error)
The radio was a cool feature and some of the songs were awesome, although there is a bug(?) where the background music continues playing when the radio is blasting, talk about over-stimulation haha
Really relaxing game, and I love how simple it looks, but there are all sorts of systems in place, the gameplay loop is engaging and O love how some plants have their prefered music, I liked how quickly it went from oh nooo I’m a terrible gardener to I have more than 10 plants alive :P Really great game, I just wish it was a bit more polished
Very relaxing game taking care of the plants . the 3d models with the shading around the environment are also very nice . It gives a nice animal crossing vibes. Do you mind playing my game too ?
Nice cozy game about caring for plants! I've also been blasted by some intense music which scared me a bit :D. I like the aspect of having to place plants in specific places for right light levels and all other management for plant needs. I like the cute artstyle though it would be better if everything had consistent shading style (as in just just changing shading to smooth on things like player model though that might just be my opinion). Overall really nice game. Good work! (Also at some point I think my watering can disappeared somehow).
My max was 10 plants before things started dying lol. The collisions needs some work; I got trapped in place my first playthrough and had to start again. Good entry ( ദ്ദി ˙ᗜ˙ )
Really cute! Informations and controls are clear and it was fun to play. Maybe the character movement is a little sticky but, as you said in a comment, it's hard to polish the game in just one week. The number of elements to handle (water, insecticide, trash, etc.) is not overwhelming but it allows the run to become more and more challenging. Good job!
Btw on my first run plants died in 5 minutes ahaha
I really loved it!
Very cute and wholesome ! I think I got soft locked because I trashed the watering cane by acident xD But the gameplay was really great, good job !
I found it to be very cute, wholesome and heartwarming <3
The neighbors ringing the bell 24/7 was legit giving me anxiety though NGL XD
I liked the chill, relaxed vibe of just going around doing everyday stuff. Great job!
Really cute game, really embodied my irl experience of owning too many plants LOL
The movement was a little sticky and sometimes couldn't keep up with my plants but that's probably inevitable. Thought it was a really fun time overall tho!
Thanks so much! Sounds like we’ve all been there with too many plants and not enough hands haha :D
Yeah the movement can definitely feel a bit overwhelming at first.. classic game jam problem, never enough time to polish everything haha. Appreciate you playing our game! :)
I understood I am as bad gardener in real life as I am in game, lol. Great game overall, the game loop was very well implemented. Only issue was that sometimes when you want to interact with the flower with anti-bug or water, it placed the object on top of the flower instead of just interacting with it, otherwise, awesome game!
Thank you very much for playing our game and your kind comment! :)
Yeah, we noticed that issue too, and it’s definitely something we would’ve liked to polish more, as well as adding more plants.
Super happy to hear you enjoyed the game though! :)
Cool game! Player movement was super responsive, it was hard to understand what to do at the start but once you get the hang of it, it was great.
Thanks for your comment! Glad that you liked the player movement :)
It’s definitely a lot to take in at first — there are quite a few things to remember about what each plant needs. We probably could’ve explained that better, but we hope the little guide book helped point you in the right direction. Thanks for playing! :D
Cute game! Got blasted by the music whenever I put the radio on though as it was very loud and was occasionally confused on what to do when the plants died (I only managed to bin one dead plant, the other ones didn't want to be binned), but I really liked the art (cute characters!)
Glad you liked our game and our models!
At the beginning it's a bit tricky to see what the individual plants need, but if you play it a bit longer, you'll get the hang of it. The radio is obviously too loud, we'll fix that later. Promise ;)
And the problem with the bin... the trash can was probably full. Have you tried emptying it and filling it with a new empty bag before putting a new plant in? I think we forgot to make some kind of indicator, like the watering can one, where you can see how full the trash can is. Shame on us :D
I hope you enjoyed playing anyway :)
Fun game, love the art in it! Though I was sometimes confused why my plants turned black when they got everything they asked for. Overall it was great!
I'd love to play your game, but sadly I only have a mac with me right now. But just going by the screenshots it looks great!
Oh no, that's a real shame about the Mac! We don't have any experience in customizing and exporting games for Macs yet, but maybe that will come at some point in the future so you can try out the game later.
Thanks for your lovely comment, it's also nice to hear that the screenshots alone are well received. :)
Controls are really responsive, feels great to move, music sounds peaceful. could use some animations or particle effects for the items tho. Neat game!
I love the art style of this game! I did notice that when changing music tracks the original song does continue to play as well. Is there a way to interact with the plant and view its requirements again? I was having trouble remembering what each one needed.
Thank you very much, the models are completely made by ourselves for this game. :)
We will adjust the music settings in the future, unfortunately there was no time left.
You can not interact with a plant later on to see all it's requirements again, but you should see them with the speech bubbles above if something is not right. So if it needs e.g. fertilizer, water or a different sun location. You can also see the sun requirements if you pick the plant up. When you have a not friendly plant near by it gets a sad cloud above. That's it.
It's a great idea to show the stats for the specific plant again if you forgot them!
Fun cozy game concept, really like the music. It's still a bit confusing about all the different requirements necessary for each plant in my opinion.
