Just awsome ! Really good gameplay. Nice

Wow! What a fun one. A little learning curve but I could see myself coming back to this.

Very chill bravo !

It's a good game. I found it a little bit hard to control (and understand - tutorial is too massive but after few seconds I completely forgot about it), but I really like simplicity of visual and gameplay.

Good game! I like this minimalist style and I kinda like how physics make controls hard, it's like you're too depressed to even water your plants correctly... But still keep going and try to build a whole party of plant friends for yourself <3 I'd definitely play this game when I feel sad :)

I like the fact the you get to decide which plants you want to get in which order. The graphics are nice. It gets a little repetitive after a while, but it's a good entry nonetheless!

Very cool idea. I like the fact you can just fill up your room with cacti in hats. Graphics are great. I liked the game! It emits friendliness and made me feel good for some reason. Am i weird?)

Like the concept. And a nice graphics design. But HUD elements a little bit buggy

This looks nice - any chance of a Macor Web build?

Aaaahhhhhhh, I love the chaos of it all! Before I knew it I had flowers needing ranch sauce, heaps of radios playing different tunes and I was madly trying to 'water' plants without flipping them on their head, it was awesome. I only wish that I could lift plants higher than waist level, but that just served to increase the chaos. Really fun game, I love the irony of completely stressing the hell out, just so you can get some flowers and attempt to be happy. :heart:

@justcamh I appreciate your feeback SOOOO much! Thank your for playing Plant Party!

@neontropics The download is a standalone Windows/Mac/Linux .exe file - so unless you are running MS DOS you should be okay. I ran into several issues with a WEBGL build - so I decided against it.

Looks beautiful!Good job!

what a fun game !

looks soooo nice! At the beginning I find it a little bit hard to control, like how can I water the plants etc. But after a few min I got it. I also like the style of the plants - great job!

Good colors palette. Good idea but it was quite not obvious for me that I also could (and should in fact) buy ingredients to combine them with water in the same menu. So, I tried to pick them from fridge, searched in the flat in panic :laughing: That's how I've got my 1st 2 Game Overs.

Also, it seems there is a bug in going to controls section (I think menu layer interleavies with it + cursor is center and I cannot move it to go back to menu or game) bug_menu.png

You did great job with this game. Keep going and good luck!

A really interesting concept, I found it a bit frustrating though if I could be honest. nice atmosphere and good graphics though. good job!

moritz-jaeger 2020-04-27 14:50

love the artstyle!

samboyer276 2020-04-27 16:27

hey nice job! I had fun finding out each plant's requirements and grouping them together for better happiness :smile: I was frequently knocking plants off tables with the watering objects, which I think was an intended mechanic, but the objects seemed quite sensitive to any collisions and would fall over easily... I wonder if the plants could be weighed down a little to keep them in place more, but still fall over for heavy-handed players?

Aside from that (and the UI issues mentioned above), it's a great execution! well done :D

Wait what? I’d swear the LD results system is broken, how did this game rate that low? This game was awesome, and certainly deserves higher than it’s gotten... I dunno how that happened, but regardless, congratulations on your game, and best of luck for the future!
