That was great :)
That was really fun. Such adorable monstrous plants!
Nice game. Wish there was more interaction with plants.
This game got very nice looks and simple mechanics, which is fun to play at first. The music is fine, but a little bit too repetative.
Great graphics. The musical choice, not so great.
As with many other entries I've tried so far, here too we have a chronic lack of challenge. Choosing what to do is already decided for you by the rules. Only certain plants can be used in each season (no choice there), each successive plant is outright better than the last (still no choices to be had) and there isn't even any major consequences for planting too late (the one, silly, choice you can take). All you lose is a little bit of real-life time.
Interactive media thrives when interactivity is utilized in interesting ways. For games decision making (overcoming challenges) is the way to go, for puzzles deductive problem solving is the key and for interactive fiction exploring a non-linear story is the meat of the experience.
Without interesting interactivity you are left with something boring and that is the biggest crime of them all (apart from real crime, of course).
Hey Guy,
I liked your art style and the mood.
Please go ahead and check my game (LocusLudi) nad check my Youtube (Acuadoy Studios) cause ill redo
my whole game and then you'll get all the links to updated versions of my game!
I like the graphics and ui and it feels polished and finished but I would replace the song you have used (luckily there is a mute option).
The game needs much more complexity, more choices to make, therefore it is not challenging.
I have one more question, what about autumn? :)
Oh god it took me years to complete... (Quite literally!)
I really liked this game.
I love growing things, but the easiest way to not lose money is to just grow daisies!
Good game, love the advanced bomb plants.
Awesome. I like this kind of game, and I think you have the scale just right (much longer and it might get tedious).
Great graphics. I got a little tired of the music loop in the background. If you were looking to revise/expand, I might consider changing the music for the different seasons.
Very fun and addicting game. The web version doesn't seem to work and that might make some players make bad ratings or just leave.
Really good plant selling system. Was able to progress nice and smoothly. Found the later plants (like the grenade corns and cherry bombs) quite amusing.
