This is a really smart platformer with interesting mechanics. Definitely in my top 10 games of the jam! The fact that you made all of the assets during the jam as well definitely means you guys need more attention! Excellent work!

Super awesome game! interesting mechanics that was really satisfying when you get it right :)
Hey, thanks for stopping by the stream last night, I rated just now and the VOD is posted here if you're interested:
Wonderful game! Great art style and awesome presentation. I had a litle bit of a hard time controling the gardener but other than tha, great game.
Hey friends! I played through your game and tried to give helpful feedback. The vod is here: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/679993926 (21 minutes in)
It's got great gamefeel!
One of the best games right here. I didn't complete it very fast, but got 141 flowers on the way! Great job dude.
I really loved the idea and the execution, the art was on point and gameplay too. it smartly fits the theme.
The only small critic I can give is that the control felt a bit slippery while the leaves/cuttable flowers were tight to jump to
Great entry, congrats on your work, and best of luck!
The art style was great and the out of control element was fun! Loved it!
Fantastic game! The mix of 3d and 2d is gorgeous. I love the progress bar on the right especially.
Really cool concept and pretty fun to mess around with
The keyboard bindings felt really awkward and I really think you should tweak the air control
But aside from that it's great !
I love the animations and overall look. I felt a bit uncomfortable with the air control (or maybe the leaves could be a bit wider) but the jumping between the flower petals is really awesome. Great job!
