Very cool game!
Very cool. Nice polish with visual heat effects. Feels like there's interesting opportunities for strategy in the gameplay.
Thanks! My favorite startegy is writing "HELP" with flowers, but it always turns out illegible.
this gives me pvz vibe
I appreciate the comparison!
I love this game! I love how you use texts in news paper to tell the player.
Thanks! Do you think these texts were enough to understand the rules?
Yeah! It could be a bit confusing for some people but it was perfect for me.
I really liked it omg, it was really original and had a good amount of effects, I like the heat distortion effects, really nice. Also, the sounds were good. Like others have said, it is hard to understand, the newspaper didn't tell me much, it only gave me hints, like water your plants, but didn't know they were heaters. Also, why is there a limit on the water can, seems kinda unfair b.c you need to plant 1 seed but water it twice, and since you can plant 3 seeds it means you must water it 6 times, going back once to put it down and fill up the can, just a petty thing. Overall, I really liked the game, please develop it further, I can definitely see some sort of radioactive meteorites or some other hazards if you chose to develop it, and then maybe some leaded plants to block the radiation?. Good Job 6/5!!
I'm glad you liked the game despite it coming off as unapproachable! Now that I have some time, a proper instructional manual is in the works.
You're totally right about the water limit, that's just me being petty and forcing the player to take another trip to the hose. I should've made the sprouts at least somewhat useful, so it would be okay to leave them half-developed.
I like it, but I couldn't fingure out what I was supposed to do with the meteorites so I kept losing quick
Thanks for trying it out. My in-game "explanation" is so minimalistic it's almost absent. Duly noted.
Edit: I've posted instructions on the game page, so now you can check what you've missed.
