Feels a bit weird at the beginning, but after you get used to the controls and mechanics it quickly becomes really pleasant. I still don't quite understand some of the ways this games work, for example bugs on the plants that you can throw in the bin but they don't affect anything, at least i didn't see they did. I really like the audiovisuals, although they fit more into a relaxing game, while this is fast-paced fight for the life of your plants. Still like it though!

We talked more about this game in this video.

I love the art! I was excited for it to be chill and cute, and before I knew it my crops were dying of thirst! I got the hang of it pretty quickly after that, but man is this game tough. I made 70 bucks in one day, which I was proud of. Nice job. 

Also that bird noise was cute :)

"You're great at gardening! You made 0 bucks" that made me chuckle. Cute game, I really like the art style here!

Are you able to share a Mac or HTML version? Unfortunately I'm unable to play this otherwise.

I really was thinking in the beginning that this will be a chill nice grow plants and pick up fruits game. Oh boy I was wrong. Suddenly the plants start to dry so fast that I dont even realise what happens. Then I was panicking to try pick up fruits to get money but I also needed to be fast to water the plants and eventually get the bugs off too. So stressfull.

Otherwise great game and nice design and art and sounds but I would have liked to garden peacefully. If you continue development maybe you can add a zen mode for those who wants to just chill and relax while gardening :)

Good Job!
