Cool concept for a game. Reminded me somewhat of the old balancing ball labyrinths. I would have liked to see settings for the inverted mouse movement on the y-axis.
Nice atmosphere you have created. A minimap would be helpful though.
The artstyle you went for is really cool, but my sense of direction is waaaay too bad for this game, as I was never able to get back to the starting point after picking the seeds. xD
I liked the old school graphics (retro style). Menu needs a little bit of more polish but they work. Music was greepy.
Theme works. You really want to have those melons. But unfortunately it was so foggy that my record was 2 melons. :( Maybe a pointer or somehting could help after getting the seeds.
But ya good work :)
Thank you for the feedback. I was planning on having a better menu system, but didn't have the time to make it in time for the jam. I will most likely return and polish this project up in the future. The fog was meant to introduce a sort of difficulty, but I will probably tweak it later in the future to make provide a bit more visibility. The pointer is actually a great suggestion and I'll probably consider adding that once I do polish the project. :)
