The game has no restart button anywhere. Whenever the plant can't grow anymore, I'm forced to restart the entire game.

it's not well communicated it seems, but you are able to click on the flowers to restart the vine from that locatio

A little hard to understand what is my mission, but clever use of theme. Well done.

Once I got the hang of it and understood how it worked it was actually a really cool and unique game design. I bet it was really fun to program this. Did you use a shortest path algorithm? For things I think could have been better I wish that you could restart the level you were on. It would be cool if the tiles were a bit more defined so you would know exactly how many vine resources you were going to use. Anyway good job for the time given. For sure the most unique game I've played so far.

i had a better tutorial planned, but i spent too much time getting the thing to behave how i wanted it to, and didnt have much time otherwise. Thanks for the criticism.

I like the idea! It was hard to understand how to play at first, but it was fun once I got the hang of it!

I think this was very unique! Really love the ingenuity. It was a bit confusing to figure out, then it just became hard :D

thanks, i had a better tutorial planned, but i got a bit more ambitious than my skill level allows, and i had to spend too much time programming and debugging the behavior of the plant

I know how it is :) You always run out of time on these jams...

Amazing game! I love trying to guide the ai though it was very easy to get stuck and I wish there was some kind of reset button.

in the instruction page, it tells you that you can click on any of the flowers that appear to start a new vine at that location
