i like the art and  idea and the music i thinked the roof is liking good job

Submitted

I liked the idea but levels became too easy. I think a change in rain direction or something would be better for levels

Submitted

Nice physics based concept, but I could often complete the levels by standing still. I think it might have been more beneficial to try water the plant instead. Still, a very good effort! I liked the sound effect of the rain and the pixel art was simple but efficient!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback. :-)

After listening to the sound effects for 3 levels my bladder had some urgent matter. Nice concept. Music would be nice.

I actually think the concept may have been better in reverse. Use the 'bucket' tool to water the plants. More movement around the screen that way, but I guess that would go against the less is more aspect. I liked the character art too. Nice job!

Hey, good job on finishing your game! I like the idea of this game but i dont expect water to have these kind of physics ;p

the consept is fun! Maybe better gameplay is needed.

I think it was a bit too easy, how about needing to protect a few flowers at the same time? in the version we have right now you can just stand over it and that way just win.

good job anyways.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback A lot of people have been saying it was too easy. I did play around with multiply plants but I though it was to hard. This is my first Game Jam so I hope to do better next Jam. :-)

Interesting little game, I thought it was pretty funny and a unique idea. I can picture a crazed botanist, sleep deprived and cold trying to protect a flower by all means necessary and unnecessary. 

If you wanted to improve, I suggest adding some form of wind mechanic or some way to force the player to move around. I ended up being able to stand still and beat all three levels due to lucky RNG. You could also add in other threats like people trying to walk on the flower or animals trying to eat it.

It's a short game but entertaining for what it is!

Developer

Thank you so much for playing my game. Thanks also for the feedback.

Nice job!

The less the water provided, the more the tree grows! I like it! At first I thought just standing on top of the plant is a shortcut for me to finish the game until I reached lvl 2. Great game!

Developer

Thank you!
