How does your game represent Mode?
Mode and Mowed share the same pronunciation, and the entire premise of the game is to make sure the various worlds have a nice clean cut of grass. Additionally the disembodied mower you control can switch between blades up and blades down allowing you to cut grass or to get to where you need to go even quicker.

This was cozy to play through!

The level design was fun and the controls were smooth and responsive. I would’ve liked some additional aspects to the blades up mode, maybe the ability to glide on water or something.

Overall, a really solid entry that I enjoyed playing!

clever pun! I got filtered by the first level. nice controls, platforming and movement feels good. I liked the intense music for mowing. I would have liked to see the mode switch be taken a bit further. its really just a toggle-able sprint button in effect

Very cool levels and liked mowing around and getting all of the grass in any order. One thing to maybe change is the clear condition. Maybe a lot less grass to beat some of the levels?

I really liked the smooth controls. I'd also like to point out the score I found fitting and fun. Plus, the variety of challenges was also very much appreciated. All in all it was original and fun. Thanks

I want to give a little appreciation to the level design in this. There's some good variety in the stages reminiscent of the old collectathons, the levels are pretty open and can be approached however but there are still directions given to help you easily and cleanly get to all the grass on each stage. I barely needed the arrow to help find the last stuff which is how I know you did good.

This is a somewhat surprising implementation of a 3D platforming collectathon! Really wouldn't have thought to make mowing grass into a collectable mechanically, but it does the job well and each mode has an important function in its motion mechanics. The environments are varied and interesting, I especially liked the spooky themed one where grass was hiding in high places and in fog. Definitely contributed to the collectathon feeling of older platformers.

This was awesome and creative. Every summer I think about making a mower game but I've never thought up anything like this. It reminded me of a fusion of Tony Hawk games and Glover, really neat and a solid challenge. Also easily one of the best 3d Godot games I've seen in the jam.

This was awesome and had by far the best soundtrack of any game in the jam! I really enjoyed the level variety, and it's sweet seeing all of the lawn mowing games!

Submitted

Well this game was a joy to play! 10/10 would mow again.

saw you on the comments on the other mowed game and just knew i had to finish the "mowed" trilogy of games lol. this game controls great, and the movement feels good. the presentation is pretty good and i love the music. but maybe there should be an option to finish the level at 90-95% patches mowed? i loved this one! the mowed games truly are great lol.

I love how the mower felt to control, very satisfying to hunt down and cut through each patch of grass. Bravo on the arrow pointing to the last bits of grass, that's one of those things that makes the experience fun instead of painful.

Well done!

I didn't expect the lawnmower to control so well lol. Felt like a sonic semi open world game except instead of collecting coins, you mow grass (also probably due to the music). Really fun game to try to speed run. I like the special rewards for completing the levels within a certain time/ deaths.  Really nice execution of the theme!

I love how hardcore the sound effects are lol


Only complaint is it's a bit tedious to track down every single blade of grass, but the arrow does help with that a ton.

Submitted

I like the metal music and the sound effects!

Not where I would go immediately with interpreting the theme, but I like it! The world could use more serendipity. Overall a fun romp, even if I didn’t expect it to be so hardcore.

Very original concept and a fun game!. I liked it a lot, and the contrast between the music and the game surprised me. I was expecting a chill game, and instead, I found a heavy metal mowing platformer, haha. The sensitivity of the controls makes navigating the platforms challenging, I think increasing the precision of the controls would make it more enjoyable.
Great job!

Damn, this game goes HARD. I would call this the super mario 64 of lawnmower games. From the second I heard the hardcore music, I was amped to go mow some mf grass. Absolute banger of a game, well done!

Submitted(+1)

I like the comedic contrast of the heavy music with the peaceful environments. Nice "Power Washing Simulator"-type game :D

Submitted(+2)

Great Idea! I'm not sure how much this fits the theme but the idea of mowing the grass is really nice, and can turn into a really satisfying game!

Submitted(+2)

That was some hardcore mowing! I think it would be great if there were settings to tune sensitivity for finer control.
