The game builds a cozy mood effectively through the art and music I assume. Gameplay has potential to be developed further. Liked the game overall.

Beautiful game! Best audio of the games I've played from the jam so far. I loved the music and the sound effects were all super satisfying. The menu screen makes me think that if I was better at the game and could collect all of the pickups before surfacing to grow my mushrooms, perhaps  I could unlock two more levels in the bigger jars?

I noticed a few small issues with the audio (you should hear my submission...) but only because I was having such a good time playing and was appreciating the sounds. There is one point in the music where I hear a click/bad edit, and another with a strange and abrupt transition. Also if you trap yourself in a small area and cause many collisions in quick succession it creates a cacophony on top of blocking your path to the surface.

This is a great achievement for a weekend and I had a lovely time playing. Well done.

The atmosphere was super enjoyable with the music and graphics! It's missing a little bit of polishing, but otherwise awesome game:)

The therapeutic music and art-style of the game is really catchy. I'm wondering about the implementation of the growing vine mechanic. It looks nice when it grows longer and adjusts its size. Also I over shot the root and it started growing out of the bottle. I guess that's not intended, but its a lot of fun doing that :D. Great work.

The game has super good vibes and nice graphics. Sounds match nicely with the game as well, feels like a cohesive piece.

The theme is well implemented (kinda similar to what we have but then again totally different).

The gameplay is not super polished though, the shooting mechanic gets stuck and it's unclear what the fail (or succeed?) state is exactly. Some feedback or improvement could be made.

Lekker spelletje hoor!
