Very cool take on the theme.
Awesome game here! Fun graphics, gameplay and items!
I'm loving the art. The controls work really well too.
Loved the pixel art. Especially the growing alien animation looks really nice. Good job!
Nice! You fit the theme really well, game is pretty fun!
Great job!
This is a very interesting game. I like how the green "plant" stuff only grows when it is attached to the core flower thingny. It gets really difficult with the stronger grey leaves growing. I may have missed something, but what can the coins be used for?
Awesome!
Such an addictive game, and such a simple idea but one I've never thought of, I really did enjoy this game
Very nice game how it is and it was unfortunate that you were not able to put in other features you wanted to add. I had one question though: Was the core of the plant supposed to automatically be destroyed by the vines being destroyed?
I beat all 5 levels, woot!
Awesome take on the theme. Great audio, excellent graphics, and very solid controls. Gameplay was great. With another 10 or 20 hours thrown into this, you'll have an excellent game on your hands. Great work!
Pretty swell!
Wow, great game. Awesome graphics, gameplay, audio - everything! Only thing I noticed that seemed like a bug or something was that I beat two levels without actually killing all the hearts - somehow they were destroyed on their own or something. Anyway, great job!
Beat it ;) Fun game :)
Great idea and well executed.
Simply hilarious =) Great work with the organic growth and pixel art!
That was fun -- it was neat how the vines kept growing and attacking.
@chamberlainpi: Go back to the trailer and press S. There's a shop that lets you buy things. :)
@Justin Kibbe: Correct! This is intentional, though I toned it down in the final version. The idea being that, if the core is too heavily defended, you can just sit back and kill encroaching vines. It also prevents the player from just coin-farming infinitely.
@kato9: Not a bug, intended behavior. But if you played an early version (before jam submission deadline), then the kudzu hearts would blow up too early. That's been re-tweaked.
Hmmm... Well made game=) Nice pixels and gameplay.
Can't beat blue bullshit at third level. It has many HP and grow too quick.
Awesome work! Love the growing kudzu..
Excellent game! Really fun to play. Don't actually have a whole lot of critique except that the trajectory of the coins is super irritating, they always seem to fly over my head making me waste time and life picking them up before they vanish. And that might be intentional. :P
This was fun! It really captured the feel of battling overgrown vegetation. The upgrades all felt good and the feeling and strategy of trying to stem the vines was unique. Great job!
Really great. There are no big flaws, although I wish there were more options for upgrades. That's super nitpicky though, especially for a 72 hours game. Really awesome work!
Amazing, simply amazing. Fun!
Very good, been hooked for the last 30 mins. Damnit level 7 got the better of me. Very good, fun game!
Fantastic! One of my favourites. Smooth gameplay, nice retro graphics and sound effects, and a very Duke Nukem style mood to it. Great job!
Really good game I think. One thing that bugged me a bit is that when I'm shooting directly at a kudzu heart, half of my bullets still don't hit it because it keeps growing so fast. It kinda feels to me like at that point I should be allowed to just kill it. Maybe if hitting the heart slowed down its growth for just a tiny moment? Unless that breaks some balance I'm not observing, of course.
Awesome
Really nice, the graphics and sounds are good and the controls work very well. Lots of stuff you managed to create in such a short time, great work!
I'm coming back to this game for the third time in last three days :)
Excellent game, innovative twist on platforming gameplay! Top-notch entry.
Great arcade game. Somehow the shop didn't open consistently for me.
Sountrack is great.
