How does you game fit the theme?
The story of the game is that your garden is infested wit vegetable snail hybrids (it makes more sense in-game). Some of your crops are real, and some of them are not real.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
No:
• Pixellari (Font font used in this game) was
made by Zacchary Dempsey-Plante.
• Music: "8 Bit Play" By HeatleyBros

• Music: "Quirkii" By HeatleyBros

• Base of the battle system made by Brackeys
(asset downloadable in the description).

Haha, nice idea combining minesweeper with combat:D
Had to polish up my minesweeper skills again:D
Thanks for playing!
Loved the music. Top notch
Thanks! it was made by HeatleyBros :D
Interesting take on minesweeper
#EASTEREGG
Thanks!
#EASTEREGG
Wait i played it wrong and attacked every vegetable rather than picking them welp now i have 0 points. Anyways, i went across the #EASTEREGG randomly, not sure what triggered it tho.
It’s 🍀 luck if you find it. It’s okay if you played it wrong, I rushed the instructions quite a bit. Thanks for playing!
#EASTEREGG
nice game, pretty enjoyable gameplay, a good combination of arts, music & story. Although there are quite some noticeable bugs, like one that allow me to trigger multiple mines the same time and only have to fight 1 :D so i could made it to the end with 34 pts. Anyway, #EASTEREGG
Yes, I agree, there are quite a few bugs in the game and I’m surprised that you are the first one who reported a bug so far. Thanks for playing and #EASTEREGG
One of the highest rates I have given! It was well thought and presented. I like how you combined several game mechanics and made this. It was refreshing to see something like this. I will save this to my collections to come back and play more
Thank you so much! I would have never even though of this happening. This gives me even more motivation to expand on this and make it a full release!
I would love to see more details in the artwork but it is a funny game! :D also the music in fun!
Thanks for playing!
Love how quirky this game is. I think the minesweeper bit can be made faster, maybe can do without the dialogue. Also, is there any ending? What can I do with the vegetables I picked up? Hahahah #eastereggs
Yes, the delay is annoying and is caused because of the dialogue. Unfortunately it was something I couldn't fix.
The goal of the game is to attack (with "c") every snail (the equivalent of mines in minesweeper) and pick up (with "v") every vegetable. You win when nothing is left on the board (only numbers.
Thanks for playing!

Very nice audio, and an amazing art style
Thanks for playing!
Such great graphics! Loved the overall aesthetic and vibe of the game.
Thanks! I also love the pixel art it's probably the best one I ever made in my opinion.
Fun concept!
Thanks!
Amazing Game 😁
Has alot of potential
And It was very fun!
4 Star rating in each field 👍
WOW! That's mighty generous. Thank you so much!
Np :)
Vege Pokemon... PERFECT 👌
A fun twist / add-on to minesweeper! Although I enjoyed the switch between playing minesweeper and the turn-based combat, the gameplay got a bit tedious when I only had fake veggies to fight at the end and my attacks missed most of the time.
Thanks! Yeah I should probably just remove missing attacks completely.
not my game, but still really great concept, good job!
Thanks!
Giving an old game concept a twist was a cool idea! Would be cool to see this expanded on. I got a little confused with the control scheme when it switched to a battle, but overall neat idea!
Thanks for playing!
Unfortunately i'm quite good at minesweeper so i destroyed the game but when i had to fight the remaining snails i had like 60% of my attacks that missed so i lost because of that ... Just a little bit of balance to do here in the fight section but the game is globally good ! Well done mate :)
Thanks! I will definitely make the battle system better in the future.
great idea but the execution was only ok. the turnbased battle part of the game was too easy and the i didn't really have to think about what i should do next also the text in the combat was a little slow. the minesweeper part was way too slow moving with keys instead of using the cursor was a lot slower and it was like there was delay between perssing the buttong to check a tile and actually checking it . #EASEREGG
Thanks for playing!

I loved this fresh take on Minesweeper. I've played loads of the classic Windows Minesweeper in my past and this was great. Oh ja - #EASTEREGG! I did find fighting the little vegecreatures a bit frustrating because a) I miss often.... b) they never miss c) some of them can take ages to kill when I just want to get back to vegetable minesweeper lol! I gave this a good rating, and I think for a 7-day game-jam entry this is very impressive. Awesome work.
Thanks! I definitely think I'm going to make the battle system a lot better as it's a complain many of my playtesters and raters her gave me. Thanks for playing!
