OKAY DOUBLE CONGRATS ON THE VIDEO!!!!!!!! You're killing it!!!!

Congrats on top 100 Luka! Super great work, hope to see you next year!!

This is a really in-depth puzzler! The mechanics are simple and work together nicely, and the level design was really impressive for a game jam. I really had to think creatively on a few of them. Nice graphics too! The only real critique I have is that it could sometimes get a bit tedious waiting for the vine to grow, but it wasn’t too bad. Really nice work!

*Note: The game window seemed to be slightly zoomed in, which clipped off the edges of levels and text on the menu. Nothing I did on Windows seemed to work, so it could be the game? Might be worth looking into.

Really cool take on the theme. An impressive puzzles with a good selection of mechanics.

The water simulation aspect must have been hard to code in the jam. I found the puzzles where you have to redirect the water really fun.

My only criticism is that the orb dropping and getting lost if I make a mistake. Would appreciate an easier way to stop growing the plant. It's too easy to twist the plant unintentionally while trying to tuck the orb away. For example, you could make grabbing the orb permanent but the orbs ability only activates when LMB/RMB is pressed. This'd work for multiple orbs too.

The pixel art is really good. The tree looks really pretty when it gets big.

Overall this is a great entry! 

Very impressive idea, have not seen anything like that! I loved it. And the art style with chosen music made the whole experience very enjoyable.  I did not manage to solve all the levels, but I really liked the unique approach to the theme, really well done!

The one thing that might be worth checking out if you decide to continue working on this game in the future, is that water stops filling up if you make a big hole. I think I encountered it on level three when I needed to use one plant to make a pool of water so the other plant would start getting some water. Even if the water was constantly running pool stopped filling after some time. But it was not something too concerning, since I just replayed that level by making a smaller pool.

I liked the fast-forward feature too!

Overall, I enjoyed it. It was actually a unique and nice experience!

Awesome game. One thing that is a 'bit' annoying, is where to put the shiny when you don't want to use it (perhaps some sticky place on wall could do the trick ?).

Well done. 

The art style is great, and it’s a really interesting concept! I love the idea of growing a plant that interacts with the puzzles in the different levels!

This would be great extended into a full game. One feature that I think would be good would be to have a “rewind” feature to ungrow your plant a little, because it’s rather easy to get stuck when moving around to look at the level/read signs.

Well done!

This is great.  The mechanics create some great puzzles and overall they play really well. The artstyle is also very pretty and looks clean: I think the pixels properly being on a grid really helped it (I will admit that's not something I ever pay enough mind to for a jam).

I only encountered a couple issues: 1. it seems like the water stops building up at some point even though it's not leaking anywhere 2. I got stuck on level 8, where the blue shiny didn't shrink the other vine, even after I brought water to it.

This is unbelivable. How did you make this in 96 hours?! Great physics, great art, funny signs, ultra level level design.  Making us use the mechanics wisely.I'm a huge fan of physics based games. And I hope you and other skilled game developers gain a lot of fame, money, and power to make the world a better place. Save us fro m ubisoft bugs, EA moneylust and other prolems in game industry.I can't say much. Everything is perfect. I can only say some funny tiny things, I didn't read the signs and the art was a bit sharp, dropping the ball would destroy everything. Please make less levels next time. This game is really cool and I don't want to play it forever because I can't resist to.

I really liked the puzzles and the core mechanic! The way the game is presented gave me major World of Goo vibes
The design is very clever, and the way in which vines can interact with water and environment feels very thought out
If I were you, I'd take this project on into a full game after the jam, maybe with improved graphics? They're really the only aspect of the game that didn't quite gel with me right, the more detailed vine does clash slightly with the more simplistic backgrounds, so that could be an area to improve later on

Other than that, like I said, I'd be fully interested in getting this if it got a commercial release! Keep it up :D

This is my favorite game in the jam so far! The aesthetics are charming, the puzzles are challenging and fun, and the mechanics fit perfectly to the jam. This game has everything you could ask for from a game jam submission and even beyond that. Great work!

This is probably the best and most creative game I've played in the jam so far! The level design is very creative, especially when it gives you control of multiple vines and you have to find a way to get them watered to control them. All of the puzzles were extremely fun and felt like they were in the perfect order.

One criticism I have is that sometimes I want to put the shiny down somewhere to stop controlling the vine and pan the camera to view the level ahead, but usually there aren't many good spots to do so. To rephrase it, whenever I want to the vine to stop moving for whatever reason it's hard to make that happen, especially when the shiny is still active even if dropped.

Nice game and idea, I enjoyed it!

Some criticisms I had:

- Cannot read signs while holding shiny

- Sometimes vines will get stuck and I have to restart (in earlier levels)

- The last few levels were very finicky (especially 'Oiler') and I had to retry many times, because it was very hard to use the shinies to manipulate the vines how I wanted, very often I would try to "rush" a shiny past a vine I didn't want to move, but the vine would still catch the shiny and move just a little bit which was enough to mess up the flow of water. Also I would sometimes lose the shiny if I moved it at a very high speed, because it would get caught in some terrain, which was very annoying in the last few levels.
