I finished it! It seems like only two of the DNA strands were there to get. Pretty chill game. Thanks for making it!

Thanks! The level is randomly generated, so if you're unlucky, some strand could be hard to find yeah.

This was a really cool and interesting game. I liked the different mini games and there is definitely room for expansion on this idea. I can see there being a bunch more different plants, more dna mutations, more minigames, and so much more. The only thing I would suggest is revamping the movement controls because they were a bit odd, but that wasn't a huge deal. Very well done.

Wow ok. So.., there are games, within this game. You can tell it's a real labour of love. I can't believe you got multiple game modes in during a Jam! Full marks on the music, this is the first game that I played so far that made me feel cosy and wholesome, BUT yet is still on theme. The art grew on me. And there's the element of exploration too! I went around looking for Fancy Trees after I realised they gave 30pts per harvest.

Much thanks for your nice comment! This really made my day :). I hope I get better at the art design haha.
