Played it multiple times...

The best score I come up with was 31 points....

Sometimes I accidentally shifted a bit from potential growth items, because I thought it would cause deaths...

So is the score the amount of things you collected???

I felt the contrast of design was abit confusing for me personally as i could miss the rocks showing up then the background soil.
It was good gameplay and very unique idea of picking up stuff leading to your specific plant all grown up once completed.

So fun!! This game was super nice and relaxing and the premise is really sweet :) It was fun to play and I love the added replayability with different flowers every time you beat the level!! It feels very satisfying and it piques my interest to see what other text might show up and what other flower may appear.

My biggest gripe with this is just that the text is kind of hard to read; not just the title screen, with all the text really close together but also with the score (too close to the background color = hard to read) and with the end-of-level text (white text on white/light colored flowers). Adding either a shadow box behind the text, moving the text somewhere more clear or changing the color would remedy this quickly. 

Other than that, this is a very simple, fun experience and I played it multiple times haha

Great job!

Love this game, nice work on the visuals, I love the way the plant is drawn through with the arrow, a little difficult at times. The music is wonderful, and the vibe of this game is demonstrated amazingly. This game knows what it is and executes itself perfectly, peaceful and chill, all while being slightly challenging and beautiful. I love it. though the connection to the theme isn't very strong.

Thank you very much, although the topic can have many interpretations haha <3
