Really fun, very visually polished and the gameplay is simple but just deep enough that it doesn't get old. I know you mentioned it in your description, but I really think the only thing this game is missing is sound, I also wish you could see your kill count as well as number of mutations on the leaderboard. My highscore was 15 mutations with around 1200 kills

Very cool game! Really like the art and ascetic. The gameplay is fun an can keep you playing for a long time
What I noticed though, that the player isn’t that relevant if you get a few plants/towers to help you out. So you maybe need to look into that (maybe add upgrades for the player?)
Overall a very nice and polished game :)
The game is awesome! I wish it had sounds and music, but everything else is done just perfect.
Loved the art and really enjoyed the gameplay loop, quite addicting you might say! Great game, good job!!!
I really liked the art. The gameplay is also as fantastic as art. Different enemy types make the game way more enjoyable.The thing that I don't like is that the player gets weaker (has less impact on the game). It would be cool if you could choose the mutation type or some sort of upgrade (even if that doesn't give you some good advantage). Well done!
Really beautiful game, I wish I had your pixel art skills !
It took me a while to understand that some bullets are friendly.
As many folks have said, very pretty but no sound!
While the gameplay is fun, there is a lot to be desired as far as clarity goes. I couldn't easily tell what mutations I was getting outside of things like the pea-shooter or spike plants. I would've liked to see some text pop-up when I completed a mutation with maybe a little blurb on what I gained.
The game seemed to get too difficult too quickly, which it understandable. Balance is tricky during game-jams.
You're a very talented pixel-artist, and should be proud of what you've made here! Great job!
very nice game but It's a real shame there's no audio, really nice art syle and animations
It's sadly really missing audio but the game feels great and looks awesome too
Amazing level of visual & gameplay polish, but the lack of sound really takes away the 'oomph' that I was craving from an enemy massacre game like this. A little hard to see enemy bullets when the screen gets filled up. Love the variety of bullets, enemies, and the graphics are amazing. I know you were pressed for time, making this even more of an impressive achievement. I also like how the health bar is tomatoes haha. Great job on this entry!
Cute little game, with simple mechanics to understand and man, i love this art style :) Sounds and Music would improve the game a lot, but i know, there is no much time in a Game Jam :)
Really cool game! I liked the visuals a lot! The gameplay is also quite fun!
