In what way does your game fit the theme?
It incorporates chaotic combat which increases in difficulty over time. The combat is chaotic, because you have to keep your Plants watered, while keeping enemies at bay.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Almost everything. Code, Art, Animations, Sounds, ... EXCEPT for the Music were made from scratch by a team of 2.

How to use a leaf blowerLove the graphics and the fact that there is a upgrade tree!
Also sometimes i think that that theres a but that the plant starts to get regular damage even though there is no enemy and i keep shooting it with water

Light Speed DeliveryGlad you liked it, was very fortunate to work together with a great pixel artist! :)
The plant requires a lot of water, you probably couldn't provide enough/more than it requires at the time -> Buy the Water Magic Power Upgrade or Plant Water Reserves, they should help out and avoid some of the wither damage:D
Amazing game! I had a lot of fun playing. Reminds me a lot of online flash(rip) games I used to play. Wonderful artstyle and I really like the upgrade tree.
Some very minor issues:
- The upgrade progression is a bit too slow. Getting all of them would probably take 1,5-2h of playtime
- The golem's hitbox does not match the sprite (it's too far in front of him)
- The secondary plants seemed to have no purpose (?). I couldn't keep watered more than 1 at a time anyway.
Great job overall :)

Doom FarmThanks for playing and the feedback!
You're very right about the 1,5-2hours, nice guess haha, unfortunately I couldn't playtest most things and relied on feedback from friends and then tried to get as many fixes in as I could. Still missed quite a few though (These Jams are no joke)
The small plants are supposed to be a kind of "bait/shield" for the main plant. You do loose some hp when one dies, but if you purchase most of the Plant Upgrades, you will see that they help you out a ton!
This is one of the most fun games I’ve played! I loved the mechanics and the growing system.

Faroz: The BeginningReally nice game, solid fundamentals and the upgrades keep you playing :)

Treefighter's Chaos ZooVery cute looking and addictive game! sometimes I have this weird bug when nothing hit the plant but it takes damage though.

Zombie MadnessLook, mom, I'm little chaos mage! ^^
Lovely game :D
Hints, in case you would like to continue on development this game :)
- Sometimes, if enemy is too close, I miss him, because projectile point is already behind that enemy and projectile flies away.
- Ingame music seems to not loop, so after a specific time, there is silent :/
- The game could do have more levels - every level would be more difficult, but would give more XP :)

The Chaos KnightAbsolute banger soundtrack and great sfx. Loved the artstyle and great idea for a skilltree to give replayability. Ended up really enjoying this game and it's my favorite in the jam so far. Well done!
