I like the take on the theme i feels so familiar yet different :).
maybe make the first leaf only 3 sun to get going, i had died half a dozen times before actually getting to the tutorial screen about leaves.
I would also consider speeding up the plant, getting the sun can be really difficult especially with the randmomness of the games I played 90% I died before reaching 4 suns and got every one i would be capable of getting without some sort of precognition about where it would drop next

Nicely made - I really like the art! :) Works perfectly with the Growing theme

Nice little plant simulator, simple yet has additional mechanics in it. Good job ;)

Interesting little game, but a bit difficult...kept dying before i could connect enough sun for leaves!
Fun game and fits both themes! Great work, well done :)
Really interesting take on snake! I think there could be more suns, but maybe I'm just bad at snake. Also, it would be nice if there would be some kind of way to enhance your "sun-catching skill", as it gets almost impossible very quickly to grab sun at all once you get higher. Very good game, loved it!

Nice! Some feedback...
I like the game, it's fun!
Tooltips are hard to read over other text, less transparency maybe.
Press any button to continue doesn't accept mouse button.
When playing, it interrupts to show some more tutorial text, but I immediately hit a button (I was playing) so I didn't get to read it. I had to do the tutorial four times to read it, before I could see how to grow a leaf.
There are times when the white text is on the white (right) half of the screen so it is unreadable. Actually, maybe that's a bug, or my LOVE is slightly incompatible? Because my screen looks different.
Super cute. Music is nice, gameplay is fun. It lagged like a motherfucker for some reason (which is odd, considering I use Löve all the time and never had that much slowdown)
I suddenly know so much more about plants ... I think. Nice job! The tutorial was really good!
That was great. I suck at this game, but I had loads of fun. I don't get the formula. It seems I'm always to short on sun. :)
Anyway, gonna try again after work.
Very well done.
This is a great entry, simple as that! You covered all bases; the only gripe is that maybe the player starts with just too little sugar to make the game as accessible as it could be. I had lots of fun
Great. Sugar production could be a bit easier but other than that it's a good game.

The use of achievements was a really good idea, it kept me going. Music fits really well, art adds to the relaxing vibe, theme is definitely accomplished well. Challenge is pretty satisfying, still playing it! :D
Great job, was quite fun, and included both mechanics so gets my "double mechanic" bonus.

The sound is a bit odd but good game. Follows the theme and is a clever mutation of the classic Snake game. I would be scared however if flowers grew that way.
The sound is a bit repedetive, but nice. The rest of the game is extremly well done, even achievements
Good idea, mechanics were all there and seemed to be working. Balance is really harsh, and it's far too easy to die right away. I feel like the suns in particular were often simply impossible to grab, and the early game was too unforgiving as a result.
Good job though, nailed the theme, and great to see a fellow lovecraftian. <3

Hey! Liked this game quite a lot :-)
Had to restart the tutorial a few times because I kept skipping the help tips, those should have a retard.
But the game itself was a very nice mix of skill and management.
great job!
I kept losing before getting instructions on how to grow leaves, it also seems a little random when sunbeams come down and when they don't
