• I was given a choice between an Antidote Seed and an Antidote Seed, which seemed unfair and disappointing
• I saw one of these white puffy guys trapped inside a hole walking back and forth and flashing

In the main menu (where you can press up to view the leaderboards or down to view options), pressing left or right on the controller appears to try to navigate up/down, but immediately navigates back. In other words, it seems like it's responding to any amount of "up" or "down" input, which is too sensitive and results in jittery movement when pressing left or right. I'm using an Xbox One controller.

Sometimes quitting to menu during a run and then starting a new one makes the seed get stuck at fixed x position and jitter back and forth, kinda like when something's stuck between overlapping colliders. Then there's a copy of the seed helicopter sprite at the seed x and the camp boundary Y. If you move through the boundary (seems to be no collision when this is happening) then things go back to normal.

Sidenote: having a great time so far!

Hi! I am not sure if this is a feature I have not figured out or a bug - but at two times, holes have appeared right where I am rolling. The first time a hole suddenly appeared right next to me (In the place I just had been). Second time a huge hole appeared where I was hanging out, killing me. Did not spot any animations or indications for a hole to appear there. I think this was..once in the 3rd area and once in the 2nd area.

My theory is that this hole creation where the player rolls is in fact a feature- but I didn't spot any feedback or warnings for it and it felt like a bug so I figured I'd tell! :)

A few things I noticed tonight. On the death recap screen, the background behind the gems count is too small:

This might be by design, but I found that gems on the ground in the post-forest camp are kinda hard to see:

After going into a button challenge room, starting the challenge, then leaving the room before the timer expires, the challenge UI (timer and gem count) remained on the upper right corner of the play area until I quit the game.

Vert Laser Seed has a planting cost of 0 crystals? Is that by design? If so, there's a small grammatical error, as it says "Costs 0 crystal to plant".

I generally use a dvorak keyboard layout, and the game seems to hard-check for up/down arrows, w and s. With dvorak, w and s are actually o and . which doesn't work out so well. It would be great if these keys were rebindable, or if the game could detect by keyboard layout.

After hitting the spring into the second camp, my seed was inside the camp but the balance stick was stuck below the camp. I took a screenshot, but accidentally overwrote it, so you get an mspaint recreation of the events:

I couldn't move the stick up, but could move it down. After moving it down far enough my seed fell down, and I could resume moving up again. Unfortunately, as you can see in the screenshot, the spring was already sprung, so I was stuck.

1. When I started a new game, I immediately pressed up on both control sticks (like you do). The seed got a big kick to the left. Might have been a physics glitch; I know Unity physics can occasionally be weird.
2. Three-button bonus crates can sometimes appear off-screen below you without any indication that they've done so. I've also had one block my forward progress, without any way to break it.

Looks like Vert Thorn Seed is using the Horizontal Thorn Seed sprite in play, but the seed selector shows it with the correct sprite.

If my controller becomes disconnected the game should automatically pause.

Having a ton of fun! Some bugs and thoughts.

• The yellow shield persists after single death.
• The blue shield persists after all deaths and starting an entirely new game, only cleared after restarting TS.
• Horizontal flying, vertical shooting, hammer looking enemy spawned 2 on top of each other facing opposite directions and were stuck and flashing.
• Resolution size text partially hidden behind window showing graphic.
• Bombbud appeared as only eye and fuse in selection zone.
• Jungle rain is not visible most of the time, only saw it once?

Love the game! It is really really good.

A few bugs I discovered while playing, starting with the most major one:

• Was using a PS4 controller on macOS Sierra, and while it is capable of switching between keyboard and controller on the fly as inputs are detected, if the PS4 controller is ever unplugged and plugged back in, no more inputs will be detected on it until the game is fully turned off and on again. Not sure if this happens on other machines/controllers.
• If the jumping spider that chases you around the first area jumps past your crossbar vine, it appears to jump underneath it, layering wise, which looks strange.

and a couple of harmless visual bugs I can't seem to recreate:

• Late in the tutorial, upon using my third charge the of crystal seed, 5 crystals seemed to pop out, but after landing only 3 of them stayed. Haven't seen it happen since though.
• Another time while using a crystal seed in one of the safe areas, the crystals that popped out had their shadows layered in front of the crystals themselves, producing a dark shape on top of them, as opposed to behind them. I also saw this happen only once.

Haven't fully diagnosed this but I think there are some issues with the music system, occasionally there will just be silence (in an actual biome, not the camps) and then the next music starts up when you reach another biome.

Also I had one of those black dashing/spinning guys end up in a camp once. Seems like the "dash" function doesn't check for the walls properly? (side note: maybe a glossary of all the enemies' names w/ pictures would help us communicate better on here?)

So had a hang. Not sure exactly what happened, I had just teleported up on a new run. I got hurt somehow on the right most part of the orange teleport bubble trail? I don't remember seeing any enemy there. The trail started being displayed and it hung in the middle where there is the gap for like 5-10 seconds. Then it started animating again for a second until it got to the left most part where it hung for good and did not clear after maybe 2 minutes. The music/sfx was not affected.

Ah! Poked around this morning and saw there is a log file that luckily I didn't clear. Relevant parts:

Those 2 error were repeated many many times. Sending full log in email.

• I returned to a hole, the kind where you get to choose between 2 classes, after passing it so far that it went under the bottom of the screen. When the screen changed to what's in the hole, the camera was still centered on the player, instead of above the player, resulting in the class descriptions appearing above the top of the screen.
• I planted a crystal plant (the 3rd one) right next to a wall. One of the crystals that spawned out of it went into a wall. :(

• One of those tiny green flies from the first region followed me into the town between Region 1 and 2. I thought I could keep an eye on it, but I apparently lost track. Due to the light color of the body and the white wings, it pretty much disappeared against the white floor background. Of course, I ran into it. Just seemed a bit unfair.

bug report: i played the game too much

• I had a spring plot spawn in such a way that it would catapult you into a wall. Granted, one could steer away from the wall while flying up but then one would quickly find oneself above a nearby hole. Pic
• Quitting the game during a "You fell into a hole, now watch your progress reset"-cutscene causes the red screenflash when starting a new game and causes some unexpected behavior.
