The music and visual style you achieved is very cohesive and enjoyable. The effects were also on point. I would have played this game a lot longer if there were more mechanics. The core gameplay loop got a bit stale after 2 or 3 stages. Excellent submission overall!

I'm OBSESSED with your music and your sound effects - did you do them yourself? they sound SO GOOD and like truly analoge, and I'm so here for that! together with the spot-on-pixel art they create an awesome nostalgic feeling. 
gameplay is great, too, though. if you had 1 or 2 more enemie types and maybe a real boss - this would already be perfection!

Thank you for your feedback! I agree, I should’ve added a wider variation of enemies; now it’s always the same.

I’m using my own obscure editor/player to create the sound. See this example. Though, you can’t export from the web version at the moment.

Who knew watering and growing plants was this much fun. Great job. Really loves this one. Great art, music was pleasant, and boomerang mechanics where a hoot.  I honestly need more, was that good.
