Presentation is nice. Sound is good and so is art.
Personally, I dislike to constantly move my attention between combat and clone creation. If it was your intention, then you did a fine job. If I were in your place, I would cut matter drops 1/4 and use the tank to store 4 clones. This would also solve wasting picked matter when the tank is full.
I liked discovering what different genes do. It is a shame that there are only 3 of them right now. Perhaps some rare ones like regen, attack speed or range would make it more interesting. And maybe an option to inject yourself for a temporary boost.
Harder difficulty is a must for this one. Earlier and more frequent attacks. The max number of workers tied to the number of houses. Make player make strategic choices, not spam bread on the first two days.
I personally do not like randomness in getting seeds. It would be better if the price for each was set (it can scale, depending on various factors), or at least an ability to keep seeds so as not to plant them immediately. Cause being, that right now there is little point in removing plants.
If you plan on working on this game after the jam, I would suggest adding more interactions between plants and between plants and enviroment. Something that would not be immediately apparent, require experimentation and interesting to discover. Loop Hero is a great example.
Also, cactus is bad. That makes me sad. Change it and make it viable. =)
