Hmm, I think you have a really great idea here, actually, like it gets pretty fun a little while in. I think it mostly needs to be sped up, Or started with many plants already grown. But the changing map thing felt really good. The music was a great choice, that made it still work with the slower pace.

Yeah, I learned as I rated other games that faster-paced games work better for game jams so people can get the feel for it sooner and rate more games 😅 But honestly I'm happy I erred in the too-slow direction this time because my tendency has been to make things too hard.
And I'm glad you liked the music, it was my first time writing jazz music and my first time recording my own music rather than making the computer play it. It's actually based on the original PacMan theme, slowed WAY down and jazzified.
