I really liked this game! The pixel art, the animations & effects and upgrades. the intro sequence with photos was a lovely touch! That guy really likes his plan :D Finally, the game title is a PUN(!) and who doesn't like puns?! It would be even cooler if the time of day changed as the game progressed.
Really sick game. The graphics are well done and the music is chill. I also like the intro and outro with the little polaroid images :) Super fun.

Nice graphics, and the intro sequence adds to the polished feel of it. Nice variation with the enemies and that you get to choose your upgrade. I didn’t clear wave 5, maybe because I chose more grenades by mistake most of the time. It’s easy to do as you click all the time while playing.
I am a sucker for pixel art so I genuinely enjoyed the graphics and this game. Good job!
Really nice game!! I gave up after wave 3. Wave 4 was too tough for me. Although pretty nice audio to support as well! Loved the game

Awesome graphics, lovely sound. The movement felt not as tight as I'd expect (faster rump up speed maybe?). Also, am I wrong in that there's no way to kill the little ones other than grenades? Lastly, I'd add delay between the end of level and upgrades being selectable, once I was shooting and accidentally selected an upgrade before I realized the level was over.
Great game! I really enjoyed it and the graphics are beautiful. I really liked the sunset background.
I was doing fine until those tiny guys showed up, I couldn't hit them; good little game
Cool game, felt it was kind of easy but I guess I chose the right upgrades haha.

The boss fight was certainly unexpected! Even though the jumping mechanic teased that there could be more. Nice little game :)
I don't like the ending though :cry:

Great game. I felt the game was just challenging enough while still being fun. The grenades were a little underpowered but I do like the upgrade system. I was also suprised to see an ending. I was expecting it to be endless. The ending was creative and a nice plot twist. The art was good, though the main character does look a lot like a broforce character.

Thanks y'all for the positive feedback!
Loved the intro-sequence; the humour of the whole game was spot-on (even the ending). The machine-gun firing noise got pretty annoying (once I had max fire-rate), but I especially liked the inclusion of a volume control on the title screen. Graphical style was brilliant; managed to perfectly convey the post-apocalyptic desert scenario in low-res.

Great game! Not only does it have a story, but the gameplay is really fun and cool. It was also super nice to have a final boss fight. I also loved the graphics/mood. Great job.
Not much bad i can say about this game. I did not like the menu screen, but the rest was just great! (the end was a bit sad though)
That was soo much fun! Each shot is so satisfying. The game is challenging, and I almost lost near the end but it was paced so well. Only criticism for me is that the intro is a little bit too long. Other than that it was great!

The pixel art looks really good! I love this sun set style. The game was a little bit too easy for me, but that's maybe due to me upgrading the gun to max. Really like the art, and the upgrade system.
This was a lot of fun! The in-game control tutorial was really nice, something I would like to implement in my own games in the future!

Fun to play and very good graphics.Sound effects are also cool but I think the music is a bit out of place.
Had a lot of fun with this, super polished. Ending was so sad :'(

This was really well made game. Really had fun playing it. I wish there was more waves so I could upgrade my gun to it's max. Really enjoyed playing it, Thanks for sharing the game's link.
Nice little game, really simple but well-designed mechanics. One thing that you could think about is adding a stamina bar, since now there is now drawback to holding down the shift bar constantly.

Very cool game. It's well polished, the upgrades keep the player interested, the intro/outro are funny, the controls were simple but effective and the boss is epic. Really good game.
Haha I first clicked on that game because it looked like Broforce. And i realized it's that, like one of the characters of Broforce decided to retire to spend his time gardening :) rellay nice concept, i enjoyed the game a lot, even if my plant got eaten
Really fun game, if only the player could get hit by colliding with zombies at least it would have been perfect and more hard to beat, nice job anyway :D

Nice little game. I included it in my Ludum Dare 46 compilation video series, if you want to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/BkQLNdwwwdM
The ending had me shouting, well done :D Overall great game, i had fun.
The sound effects (especially the gun) could use a little more juice i think but this is a game jam so we all understand haha. Also, i totally forgot that you could jump until the last wave :o Giving more reason for the player to jump in the early levels and to not shoot would be nice! Cheers
First two stages are a bit too slow. I think game would be better with just three latter stages.

Fun game with nice graphics and audio :D I noticed a misconception, you can move with the arrow keys but you can't jump

Fun game, the boss fight came as a surprise. I really liked how clear the upgrade mechanic is, it can sometimes be overwhelming for short games, but in this case it was very clear and nice addition. Good work!
i liked the music and the visuals, also the gameplay was entertaining. my only concern is with the shooting sound effect that, after i upgraded it to the max fire rate, became very irritating to my ears. not only this, but the background became jittery when i was shooting really fast. liked the rest though!!

Pixel art was fun, and the overal game was interesting, although it got repetitive. I found it very easy - won on the first play with nearly zero flower damage - and only used the jumping for the boss. Good work.

I enjoyed playing your game. Maybe it is slightly too easy, as I also won the first time playing, while the flower had no damage. I like that you had an in-game tutorial and how there was a little story told with pictures (and the twist at the end!). Well done! :smile:
Es muy bueno. Cumple con lo que ofrece y más. Tiene buen manejo de controles, el tema de conseguir algo al final de las rondas, está muy bueno. Yendo por daño o por fire rate, se cumple el objetivo. Felicitaciones, el mejor juego que vi hasta ahora!
