very eye-catching art style and creative application of the theme! i'm definitely impressed you guys managed to get a full options menu going in a jam game, that can be quite time consuming haha. i did have to play in windowed because the UI is a bit obscured at more square aspect ratios, and my laptop screen is 1920x1200, but it wasn't a huge issue
the gameplay is very satisfying! the animations for decaying plants are super smooth, and its fun to line up plants in a row :) especially near the end of a run, when you get to infect plants on diagonals, that's superrr satisfying when you get big chains of plants. i do think highlight spaces should be on by default as i feel it makes the game immediately easier to understand, i personally preferred it that way anyhow :P
either way, i had a fun time! the experience of your team definitely shows in this game, nice one ^^
