Cool idea. It would have been cool to be able to see your previous plants, to see which directions you built in before.

very fun game with a very interesting idea! although it would be really nice if you put the changing from stems to leaf stems in the game, but anyway very neat concept!

Developer

I'm not sure what you mean, you can right click to change to a leaf stem, or did you mean something else? Glad you like the idea tho!

i meant in the game if there was a text saying this

Developer

OH yeah the game is definitely unpolished, I had to submit last minute :( I'll probably finish it up and add that soon tho! Thanks for the feedback :)

I love how the game felt very incremental (somewhat a cookie clicker vibe). I had to go read your text underneath to see about the leaf stems, but once I did I was flying! Fun game! Although, I found out that if you press space it'll reset the maze, so I just went upward and spammed space ;) Great job! 

Developer

Ahahaha I had the spacebar do that for debugging I guess I forgot to take it out, glad you liked it!

We made games with similar themes! The destruction of the plant was very satisfying! 

Developer

Haha no way how did we have such similar ideas? I really love the aesthetic in your game!
