viniflores 2020-04-20 02:09

I liked so much this low poly-like style :P good job man

The art looks great! Unfortunately it seems the character keeps walking off screen when I am not pressing anything. It's not you. It does that with any Unity game for me. DOn't know why.

Hmm, for some reason I'm unable to move or do anything except open up the menu (withe escape) when I start the game. I've tried both WASD and plugging in a gamepad, but to no avail.

Plant Boy! It's Plant Boy! He's so cute. Everything's cute. I love the music.

@bmo same here

The graphics and the low poly art style is amazing but for some reason I am not able to control the character. Does it require a controller/game pad?

Holding off on rating because my keyboard inputs don't seem to be going through. I think I have the same problem as previous people do.

Let me know if you find a fix so I can come back and rate!

jonah 2020-04-20 07:11

Sadly, I have the same problem as @bmo.

I do really like the music in the game, and the art style I see in the screenshots.

Would love to play this game!

@bmo @ch4oticau @pulkit-garg @jeremy-ryan @jonah Thanks so much for the feedback guys! I've fixed it now so you should all be able to play it!

omg its adorible! I had a really hard time with the controlls though. but omg it's so cute

I had my fair share of Problems with movement as well, but I really loved the Sound and visuals.

Game is realy cute, I love this look (only floor seems a little bit off) Controls: GamePad - I think it would be more intuitive to have our little boi rotate towards movement, and then use/pick up in "X" and "A" Mouse and keyboard - little boi should rotate towards mouse position - not on mouse movement vector (personal opinion) I totaly had to read controls manual before playing

Love the music.

jk5000 2020-04-20 11:44

The idea is really funny, and both the music and graphics good. For me the controls was a bit funky, but it was not a too big an issue. Overall a well made jam game. Well done.

maggardjosh 2020-04-21 05:39

Loved the art and humor in the game. Had a really hard time with the controls though, if you use the mouse for controls the character should look at where the mouse is. Had fun playing!

Awesome game, I love this game a ton more than I enjoyed it though. The style really rings to me but the controls and gameplay are just a little off. The game appears relaxed from the outside but has an Overcooked style gameplay. I think it would really match up with its art/music if it leaned more on Overcooked's micro-management aspect rather than the fast timing. I say this cause I wanted to be a little happy plant but instead I was stressed out af. I've no actual recommendation though, its a tricky design! But I really adore the area you went for with this game, I feel very *one* with the protagonist. Besides my criticism, I am actually a fan!

Really cute game =) The controls were a bit finicky but the overall experience was really nice ^^

weirdybeardyman 2020-04-24 17:27

Very nice, equally fun and frustrating, if he wasn't so cute I would hate that slow waddling plant guy. The feeling when the last pot rolls of the edge...

benbonk 2020-04-26 02:29

This game is really neat. Love the graphics and gameplay.

maagicpig 2020-04-27 19:53

Love this cute clumsy plant :) unfortunately he was spining around bit too much.

doot 2020-05-01 21:46

Great job! The visuals made me really want to try the game, and they are indeed very good. All the animations and text are cute, the music is simple and nice.

The controls are painfully difficult. I get the clumsiness that emerges from this, but here there are a lot of things that could have been tuned better with more time I guess, such as the grab range and time needed to water the cactus.

I had fun, thanks for the game!

ninjacatz 2020-05-05 11:18

Wow, really nice work. I like this character. Despite being clumsy, he still tries to water all the flowers. It's cute.

herzig 2020-05-07 16:27

Awesome, I loved the graphics and sound, nice mood. I did have some problems with the controls though, the mouse was really sensitive and confusing, my plant boy kept spinning around way too fast. I think it would have been more intuitive when the boy would always look where the cursor was (or no mouse at all and rotate with keys/autorotate in moving direction)

thepiratenun 2020-05-09 19:10

This was a super cute little game! The visuals and the audio were really nice and created a nice mood. unfortunately, the controls with turning around really kept me from enjoying the gameplay as much as I could have. I think if that could be ironed out this would be a really great project! I still enjoyed though, great job!

I love it! The low poly art style and the music fit really well with the overall theme. I had a hard time controlling the little plant boy with the keyboard and mouse.
