I played it now that you've got a download link and it was pretty cool. It was not at all like I was expecting. It gets really hectic with smashing all the monsters really quickly. The graphics for everything having the same face (was it your face?) was hilarious. I loved the music. It sounded like a the Stardew Valley theme in minor key. Very cool. I felt very overwhelmed at first, but after I realized I don't need to have all the plants going at once and I probably shouldn't, it got much more manageable. The click to interact was a little janky sometimes and didn't want to do what I wanted it to do. I'm sure it was probably just due to time, but I found the fact that your character didn't turn their body around, but their head spun around really funny. I managed to escape the farm after a few minutes. I liked it.

I'm sorry, my dear friend, the browser version does  not work :(

Developer

Thanks for trying anyway! I've changed it to a downloadble Windows version now

Unluckily it doesn't launch on the browser for me...

Developer

Sorry - have changed it to a downloadble Windows build now. It's rough but should be playable now

Just letting you know the description sounds absolutely rad and I want to play this if/when you update it.

Thank you for attempting to play it! I've changed it to a downloadble Windows build, which I know is not very convenient, but keen to hear feedback if you have time to try it :)

Does not launch for me (on any browser), which is kinda of a shame, since you had me hooked with the premise. Looking at the browser console, I think I had a similar problem before - did you check Decompression Fallback in Unity's Project Settings/Player/WebGL tab/Publishing Settings? I think it fixed it for me, but of course I'm not sure if your problem is the same.

Developer

Yeah doesn't work for me either, I was tired and rushed to export it I think 😭 thanks for the advice though, hopefully I can get it working! Might re-upload if I'm allowed to

Developer

Couldn't get it to behave as a WebGL, so I've changed it to a Windows build instead.


Thanks anyway for the advice - my sprites are quite big so I suspect it might be that
