OMG. So dang cute!! The level of polish on everything is so good. The art and animations are top notch!! I also really love that palette. This game just oozes charm and personality.

I love that it had a health bar. The balance was better than most other platformers I felt. I was compelled to actually complete it. (Even when I died a few times). It felt more forgiving in that way, which I really liked.

My main gripe was no controller support. :( I had such issues with the controls on keyboard. Like I was playing backward or something. My brain just had a hard time switching everything over. So many times I would jump when I meant to shoot, or shoot when I meant to jump. If it had controller support, it would absolutely be the top imo.

I also had trouble pulling plants at first, (until I realized you had to press 'up' first, then X, I tried doing them at the same time and it rarely worked). But the mechanic of killing an enemy to then get a dropped plant that was more powerful was great. I also loved the surprise of pulling up plants, not knowing what you might see. That part alone was really cool.

The amount of completeness for a jam, and a level of finish and detail on everything  was insane.

And that end boss..... WOW. The design and animations were hilarious. lol. It made it worth getting to the end. Really great stuff!

these graphics are so cute

Very well polished, makes for a great experience. I do feel it's a bit chunky for the resolution, the attack is very short range and the sprites are very big for 160x144, but it overall comes across well for gameplay!

Loved your idea to take the breath attack from Kirby and turn that into the main mechanic. Really well crafted!

I got to the boss, then I somehow broke it. I had to pause a couple times and the screen went black the second time. But it's a very nice game, solid gameplay, cool graphics and art. Great progression. Nice work!

With gamepad support this would be perrrrrfect. I had a blast with this one, even if the boss did kick my butt. Very well done!

Super satisfying breaking blocks! Really felt like you were exploring the levels with the changes. 

One thing, the size of the player on the webpage, for me, is way(!) too big.

Really cute game. Kinda wish some of the enemies had knockback but found it pleasant overall

Amazing game. The sprites and the colour choices are so cute! The vegetables mechanic and some of the tiles threw a strong Doki Doki Panic / Super Mario Bros. 2 vibe at me. Had a lot of fun playing it through and through. Well done. This is one of my favourite entries of the jam so far.

Being so embarrassed you evaporate on the spot, how relatable.

Really great entry. Simple mechanics that play well and feel gameboy-ey.

It was pretty easy, but can't really fault the balance of a game jam. It was nice to be able to see it all without being frustrated by an impossibly hard game.

Cute game but a little too easy. If there were more varieties of dug plants, it would be very interesting.
