I enjoyed trying to get the paint in the right places & it's a cool concept & good use of both the limitation & theme! I also love plants haha so that was definitely a big appeal of this game for me!

Very cool idea! A little too hard for me but I enjoyed trying :)

Cool concept, surprisingly challenging. One nitpick is that I feel like the words should change color or something once they're 'painted' as that wasn't always immediately clear.

I really liked both the game and the idea.

The game has a lot of potential, but past the tutorial, I feel like it lacks direction as to where to place the plants. Other than that, it’s an fun, relaxing gameplay, and it mixes the theme and limitation well!

I really liked both the game and the idea. I don't know if it's just me, but I've tried 5 or 6 times and I can't get through the tutorial. Good job! You've got a well-polished piece of work.

A tip to get through any of the levels would be to wait until the timer reaches 00:10, then the locations to drop plants and grow them start to flash. One thing which also might not be obvious is that plants need to be covered 2 times to fully grow. That’s one of the “multiple applications” limit in use.

Thanks for taking the time to check it out!

Preety cool concept, i like it, the art its good, the gameplay feels nice and polished, overall a good entry on this jam, congratulations, also I'm dumb so I lost like 3 times in the tutorial cause I didn't read it XD

In my opinion I didn't like the main music, cause it looks like a relaxing game and the music (in my opinion ) didn't fit the relaxing style, but its not bad.

Thank you so much!

Very unique concept! I couldn't even name the genre of this game...maybe "puzzle" would be the closest one but still not fitting well enough.

The art looks gound, the music is good.

The gameplay were really confusing at first and I needed to try 4-5 times until I got it right, but aside from that it's a nice, relaxing experience :D

Developer(+1)

Haha, I felt the same way about the genre. The closest would be puzzle, since you have to find the spots to plant in.

Glad you enjoyed playing!

This game was super relaxing once I got a handle on the controls. I do think that the bucket could do with a bit more paint so I can live out my fantasies of being that guy who spins a paint bucket on a string and makes cool paintings on youtube lol

Nice! I found it confusing when I first started but later I discovered what to do! GG! I really enjoyed this one. the controls were nice. I do have one thing, I felt the first level was a little hard. GG! If you have time could you give my game feedback?

Submitted(+1)

I like it :) Pretty fun and relaxed, sometimes it was a bit hard to figure out where to plant stuff, as apparently there are specific spots to plant things but those spots are only revealed as the timer runs out.

Also could use a volume slider somewhere as the music was very loud (maybe i missed it though)

A chill game like this was just what i needed after 1 week of hectic game making. The visuals are also stunning!

very relaxing game , i like it

Submitted(+1)

Cool and unique kind of concept. Very chill and relaxing gameplay until you get to the third level with the tight timer and spread apart plants. I had to wait for the red clues at that level to come up and memorize where the plants are. The game is really fun though, first entry I play and I think it is one of the best already =D. I think it would be cool to have a bit more water level on the bucket so we can get away with a bit of spamming because spamming around is without worrying about resources kinda fun. But yeah I think it is good to have a bit of a challenge with that mechanic.

Good stuff. Very good and well made game overall. Excellent work!

Thanks so much for your comments!! I aimed for a balance with the resources in the last level to give it more of a challenge than the previous.

Glad you enjoyed playing!
