I really like this one. It's super polished for such a short timeframe, every aspect is very well made. Congrats!

I loved this game! It's a great take on the classic tower defense genre - it's fast-paced, feels challenging yet fun and also really well polished. The gameplay seems balanced and fair, with plenty of strategy involved. Whenever bugs would break through my defenses I felt encouraged to patch the holes and keep on fighting, and building walls of fearsome plants was a rewarding and satisfying experience. The artwork is also spot-on, it blends a cute artstyle with a pixel aesthetic well, and the 8-bit sounds and chiptune music were a great touch to complement the arcade vibe. Really impressive work, this one made its way straight to my favourites list of this game jam :)

Went to round 13 first try, nice game !

This is genuinely my personal favourite so far. I love the wobbly-outline art style of the plants, great to admire them up close with the zoom feature.

The gameplay is very complete, especially for a 48h jam. I really enjoy the risk of investing big into sunflowers early on, being defenceless as a consequence. It is fun and easy to get into, yet strategically challenging in the long run.

The music is charming and pleasant to listen to โ€“ even for an extended time.

Having an indicator of the firing ranges would be nice for the placement.

I can see myself actually playing this for fun once in a while. Fantastic submission!

Awesome game and I love the visuals. The tower defense gameplay is just great and the music is calming. Great work !

This was fun!  I think it fit the theme very well.  I liked that Sun was the currency.

Fun game! Really satisfying audio feedback, and quite forgiving with the little bugs getting to the big plants which was nice. I liked the ability to scroll in and out for zooming. :)

Always love a tower defence game too, so much replayability!!


Thanks for jamming with us again :)

Developer

A very solid tower defense game. I like the turret types and being able to zoom in/out is a nice touch!

Got to round 11, then realised I got all the way to round 11! Time fly's when playing this addicting game, super fun. Time to push for a higher round!

Fun game! Is there a way to stop the bees from flying past everything?

Developer

Nope, just more shooting flowers

Really cool, frankly the gameplay is too nice, it's been well realized, I think the only thing that could be missing would be more juicyness, from my point of view. Otherwise, it's really cool ^^

Developer

100% agree, it needs more JUICE, but I ran out of time for that, instead I wanted to make sure the gameplay somewhat balanced

Such a nice game, a completely different take on the same basis as mine! I'm impressed by the visuals. Gotta try a few more runs to see if I can make it past round 7!!


Edit : Round 12!!

Thanks! Round 12 is pretty good :)

Loved that game! You nailed that! Kind of sad that it is a big plants vs zombies remake, I mean you're surely talented enough with those graphics to produce a banger of a video game, in addition of the fact that you did this in only 2 days. Truly amazed, have a nice one!

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it!

The game is great overall, I love the graphics of the plants, I hope you will expand it in the future, so that there will be more ways to play ! Good job ! ๐Ÿ‘
