My name is Sam, so by default I love this game.

I don't quite understand whether there is a way to tell if what you pick up is going to be a vegetable or if it's pure chance.

The graphics and sounds were nice :)

Was that a tapeworm?

Seems to be complete chance whether you win or not.

cavf88 2014-04-29 02:27

@ninjacharlie It's complete chance weather you win or not. So you never know if you're gonna win or not. @Miltoast that's not a tapeworm lol, That's a grub, I would't recommend you to google that lol!

More akin to rolling dice or flipping coins than playing a game since there was no way to tell whether a plot would hold a snake or a vegetable :)

@Cake&Code that's true, but don't tell that to Two Face ;)

Great feeling in the game!

This is a fun game, albeit a bit short :P
It feels a bit like gambling, so naturally, I had to keep playing until I'd won at least once :D

I like the pixel art and sounds, gameplay wise I think it needed to be more than just pure luck/chance. Maybe by including a tell in plant itself? Or a way to see the snake/worm things move from plant to plant under the dirt (so it becomes like a cup and ball trick). Pretty cool though

It was a bit short, but nice pixel art and i love the music, hehe :)
It would be nice if the music were a bit longer and not repeat itself so fast, but good choice for the mood!

Plays more like a scratch card than Minesweeper. If you could somehow subtly tip the player off to which have snakes it would be great.

is farmer sam parappa the rapper?

It seemed random where the veggies/fruits were, but still I enjoyed it. Nice presentation! Grubs are nasty little buggers.

I didn't like when the win condition is decided by a simple probability of luck. Btw, nice music. :)

Great art and vibe.

Love the art and game play! I included your game in part 6 of my Ludum Dare compilation video series! http://youtu.be/K5ATRciKj24

I like the graphics and sound but the gameplay seems to be just a lottery...

vigrid 2014-05-19 00:21

This is just a simple gambling game with a nice background tune ;)
