its fun. Controls can be a little bit annoing sometimes, but not bad.

Some parts of the UI can be a bit more polished. But other than that it is a pleasure to play, listen to and look at :-) Good work!

Very cute game with nice UI (except the window should close when I select the flower). I like the audio and the visuals are very nice. Very calming and relaxing game. Well done, keep it up. :D

The polish on this game is great. I like the little bees flying around and smoothing music. I feel like th gamplay was missing something though. I planted the flowers one by one, watered them until they disapeared and still won. I may be wrong but I think it would be more fun if the goal was to cover the entire garden with flowers instead of simply reaching 5000 life points. That would assume flowers don't disapear if you water them enough. That being said it is very impressive that you were able to have this amount of polish in just 48h, Good Job!

So the visuals and audio are quite solid. My only issue with the game was that it wasn't always clear what was happening. I'm still not totally sure why the flowers would disappear, or whatever raises or lowers your score, or what even determines why you can plant one flower over another, or why even one should. I've seen other games like this for this LD, I just feel like people are having trouble expressing their goals to the player for the most part. If you can figure out how to make feedback to the player a little more clear about what the goal of the game is, it could be an interesting experience.
