I like this concept! I struggled with the controls and I wasn't really sure what the goal of the level was, but it would be cool to see this concept developed further.
I like the art style a lot (especially the way the sprite flips around like it's paper thin) but I found the controls difficult to understand and use. The music is very calming though!
I think it's a little broken...when it said to only check one box, even if I only clicked on one, multiple boxes would get selected so I couldn't progress past the first 30 ish seconds :(
The vine is weirdly satisfying to control? I wish there were more instructions on how far you could move, how to make the most of your available length, etc, because I did find it confusing. But I like where you're going with this!
I like the concept! But, the text on screen was kinda hard to read, and I did encounter a bug after dying and restarting where the screen just displayed a blue sky and nothing else. Also the snails are OP T-T
I like the concept and the art a lot! Someone else mentioned it would be helpful to see how much debt is left to repay, and I definitely agree. I also think it would be helpful to have some kind of time pressure so there feels like a reason to keep all the available slots full of plants (and risk growing the Voidheart).
Yeahhhh I kind of ran out of time for everything else...this was my first jam so I definitely learned a LOT about time management. At the end of the day though I wanted to put something up, no matter how imperfect. I'm glad you liked the assets! I'll definitely do my best to pair good assets with good gameplay next time.
Hi out there! I am new to solo dev and am hoping to make this my first completed jam (I tried a Jame Gam but didn't get very far). I'm not looking for team members but I really found myself wishing I knew people I could talk to as fellow coders, game devs, artists, etc. I am learning Godot using GDScript and I also know some C#, but I'm open to hearing from ppl using other languages or engines too!
Basically, if you would like to have someone to commiserate with about game dev and game jams in particular, it might be fun to chat!
If anyone is interested u can add me on Discord at toxicmintdev and send the secret code phrase (ice cream has no bones)
Also if there's a group discord for this jam pls let me know bc I don't see one on the jam page but it's possible I'm missing it
