Very creative game, with a good style and an interesting gimmick. The vine mechanics are a liiittle confusing in later levels, but it's a very nice puzzler that I'd like to see expanded into a bigger game.

Underrated gem! Very fun game with amazing sprite work, with a unique interpretation of the theme! Hope this gets much more attention soon

This game deserves so much attention. I loved the game so much I wasn't satisfied even with the bonus levels lol. Really good game, the concept, the art everything

Awesome concept! felt really polished, I could see this being a full game :)

This game is really great, you got a ton of mileage out of the main mechanic! When the levels started having me push vines that would push other vines that would push other vines it felt really great, the game has a really excellent difficulty curve to ease you in and then has you solving crazy puzzles that make you feel like a genius. Great work!

Amazing game! Love the art, sounds and music. The puzzles were all really enjoyable and kept me playing

The vines are a fun and unique mechanic that fits the theme well. The bonus levels were too hard for me!

Enjoyable puzzle game. Was gonna say the puzzles are a bit easy, but then I got to the secret levels which were an appropriate challenge. Also, props for including an undo button for this style of game.

Loved this! Great use of the mechanic, 6th puzzle puzzled me a bit but great overall!

A neat take on sokoban games. Nice work

Love the baba-is-you-esque artstyle, love the hidden depth of a simple mechanic, love the sounds and overall vibe.  If I had one suggestion, it's that you didn't need an explainer for the level where you push the vine from multiple sides - I think your level design already tutorialized that nicely,  as your levels seem very good about explaining their own mechanics in design alone.  Nicely done!

Love the game! Reminds of Baba is You. I really like this simple art style and the sound design. Puzzles and the introduction of new mechanics were really satisfying. Great job!

Super polished. I had great fun playing through and it ramps up complexity really well! I also loved the humour on  level completion.
