Interesting use of the theme. It was an enjoyable game, certainly one I would play when I want to chill out. Well done
Cool game, cool visuals, cool music
Cool is cool
I love all your games.
Also check out my game
Beautiful and original, and the music fit well!
Beautiful and original!
Couldn't beat your score :D A very nice idea and the atmosphere of the game was oddly relaxing despite the urgency of what you actually have to do... cool game!
The atmosphere you created is really sweet. Everything looks great and sounds really relaxing! A really neat use of the theme.
Thanks for the compliments! I enjoyed your game as well! Good luck! I eventually was going for relaxing, but fear I treaded too far into boring haha.
(Adding to the game-name convo below) Do you happen to like alliteration? :)
I kept burning the plants at first but I finally found a strategy, which is to never stop in one place!
I thought at first that the game ended because I was killing too many plants. I later figured out that the game always ends at sunset.
Haha, yeah my past couple of games have alliterated. I do enjoy it. Thanks for the note about not knowing when the game ends. I'll add that in the instructions. Plant murder doesn't end your game, but is strongly discouraged against as it does reduce your score...and the environment and all that, but you're the sun, you don't need the environment.
Not gonna lie, that 'Saga' at the end of the tittle made me think of Candy Crush 🤣
The graphics are simple yet cohesive, the sum of every sprite together is more than each of its parts on their own, and it just works!
I liked your game, I found it to be a very original take of the 'day/night cycle' theme, and I enjoyed playing it too, excellent work! 😁
Thanks buddy. Yeah, I wasn't sure where I was going with the name, haha. But it looked good size-wise in the title screen. Thanks for your kind words!
