Minor issue: on the Game Contents card, it lists that there are 15 White Plant Cards and 15 White Seed Cards. Well, there are actually just 14 White Seed Cards in the PnP. It's not a big typo all things considered, but it did make me freak out about misplacing a card for a good couple of hours until I finally cross-referenced each prepared card with the PDF file.
Well if this is the case, then I'm glad I made some noise! I definitely want to experience the game in its entirety as intended by the designer.
As for a B+W version, I can say that, as someone with only a grayscale/B+W printer, the cards do come through okay in general. This is thanks to the design of the card being minimalistic and words such as "necessary" and "harder" being easily discernible.
The only place where my printer struggled is printing out the card backs for the seeds. I could tell my printer was straining to print the solid black consistently. I thought I could make up for some of the deficiencies by going at it with a black color pencil, but as you can see on two of the cards at the bottom, it does NOT make the situation better (lol).
Looking forward to printing the new version so that I can have a complete set! Would also like to see improvements for grayscale printing if you can manage it (but don't stress yourself over it if you can't).
It's definitely my intention to provide this! When I print things at home, I can definitely tell that the printer is struggling with all the color! (it has looked very similar to what you showed). Since I'm sorting through what kind of lower ink style, I'd prefer to hear your thoughts after I release it. Currently thinking of having a band around the edge to remind players what card it is they're playing, similar to the band on the front of the even numbered cards
