The art for this game is super nice! I enjoyed playing this game, well done!

Got to the tomato, it was pretty fun! The art is nice and the gameplay is quite fun, pretty polished game

ng-vicious 2023-01-10 07:44

I like the art style and the sound design! The game is pretty limited but it was fun :)

bufalloo 2023-01-10 07:46

Love the spin off the plants vs zombies theme and amazing art!!

kingpotatocannon 2023-01-10 07:48

Fun game! The art is very well done.

The first play through, I didn't understand that missing meant you couldn't shoot for a while. And then once Tomato showed up, I tried spam shooting them and quickly learned that I needed to take that fight slower! Got Tomato down to about 40% health and unfortunately missed 1 too many shots and lost my rhythm.

I'll definitely be back!

Great art, and surprisingly fun for such a simple game! I enjoyed playing for 10 minutes or so, but unfortunately I'm bad and didn't make it to the ending. Music is very catchy!

turegrappa 2023-01-10 07:50

Had fun playing it, nice work!

supbanana 2023-01-10 07:52

A pretty fun game! I like how the boss spawns enemy after you shoot him so spamming can screw uou over. Art and music are amazing and the difficulty is just right

Fun game with cute graphics and damn I found the tomato tough, was only getting worse at it after a few tries.

const-arch 2023-01-10 08:00

Oh my god this game is hard

The second phase of that tomato turns him into quite the monster. It killed me the first four tries, and then on the fifth I got curious if I could spam click him down and win by killing him despite having his minions kill me. Super did not work lol. Try #6 I finally got him though. That was fun, and I loved the voice acting and the animations were so good!

I wish I could've skipped through some of the earlier bits to get back to the tomato, though. Also, missing a shot when the tomato goes underground for his second phase feels kinda punishing.

Pretty good game, though gameplay is basic, there was a challenge completing it. Loved the artstyle and how enemies are designed.

hyster 2023-01-10 09:21

Oh my god this game is so funny :D I love the art and sounds, especially shooting animation. The gameplay is simple but entertaining, the tomato boss is very creative :)

yumepix 2023-01-10 10:05

Oh no the tomato ! :D Well done I enjoyed it a lot !

vrerabek 2023-01-10 10:25

So cool. Art, sound effect are great and the gameplay is fun! Hitboxes on the enemies are clunky sometimes, but I got used to that after few tries.

Could not finish the game, but the tomato boss is very engaging and fun.

I'm going to pick out tomatoes out of my next salad though!! :smile:

noskro 2023-01-10 10:32

Oh no it's a boss battle! Cool game with a good increase in difficulty. The tomato at the end was really hard, but that made it exactly the right amount of challenging. And the game is short enough to try multiple times

loig 2023-01-10 10:42

I love the art! The characters are very cute and the animations are nice. The game is also fun, but, in my opinion, a bit too slow paced for too long at the beginning (too much waves that are very easy and take a "lot" of time).

erik-kubiak 2023-01-10 13:29

The game is really really nice and the gamefeel is great, but it is a bit hard to play it a long time :)

hacktrout 2023-01-10 14:44

Really good art, the character animation is really charming. That's how I'd describe this game as a whole, Charming! Congratulations on this submission :)

aey 2023-01-10 15:35

I loved the gunshot!

afrasiab352 2023-01-10 17:33

Amazing art-style and animations. Very original approach, very satisfying. The difficulty however, feels a bit too unbalanced. I love the approach with SFX as well. Very well done.

d3kryption 2023-01-10 19:13

Fun little game!

I enjoyed spinning around shooting the carrots :D

Nice job :D

sludgekey 2023-01-11 10:14

Works very well. Simple elegant game with a great look and feel.

soonthespoon 2023-01-11 20:30

Nice art, fun music and sounds. Very fun game!

fluburbio 2023-01-13 16:28

The art is superb, and the shooting noises cracked me up! I love how simple and effective, it's easy to get into. Great job!

roroto-sic 2023-01-13 16:35

I really love the art style! the tall grass and those ground textures are fantastic to look at! The animations are also super cool, and the funny and cute charaDesign too! The music immerses us in a good atmosphere and the sound effect are good and funny ! Despite a simple gameplay mechanic the game is really fun! I beat the tomato but her children with the help of corn avenge it !^^ the game is super neat in its details, congratulations!

odey 2023-01-13 16:49

@roroto-sic Ooohh well done! Yeah the cherry tomatoes can be mean little bastards, we felt like with how the level is designed though, the win condition should really be to kill all the veggies and not just the tomato. Might have to come up with an alternative solution later if we keep on working on the game!

Thanks for the nice feedback anyway :)

ravernt 2023-01-13 17:51

Nice game! Love the art and audio. The game is very simple but still I really enjoyed my time.

ninnec 2023-01-13 18:41

I really liked the art. There were also many nice thoughtful touches that made the game play better. For example, giving us invulnerability after being attacked was much appreciated :-) I also play the html link and didnt see any problemns

mr-lazy 2023-01-13 19:09

hey nice work...first i thought like i have seen this game mech somewhere before...then came to know I made the same game like you...your game is very similar...#wavelength E>

yogurtthehorse 2023-01-13 19:32

I really like those sound effects and simple art style :DD

jj-cruikshanks 2023-01-13 20:57

super simple game but the graphics add so much! the shooting and enemy dying animations are super reactive so the game feels so good to play. playing on a trackpad so tried a few times but couldn't get past that first tomato phase holy haha. great game!Screen Shot 2023-01-13 at 12.56.34 PM.png

thiradil 2023-01-15 20:50

A simple game but it's well made; seem like you took the time to make some extra assets(once you die for example) which is a nice addition. bonus point for the mouth sound +1

stevepixelface 2023-01-15 23:44

Nice and polished. Loved the graphics, the boss fight was a nice surprise. Really appreciated the restart animation, super slick. Great job.

bobo-oh 2023-01-18 12:06

I loved the graphics and the animations! Great job ! fun entry!

kikiriki367 2023-01-19 03:46

Great game and the difficulty was spot on! As an ass as that tomato was somehow i did it! Good job to me, and a good job to you! :))

svenerik 2023-01-19 11:42

Very lovely aesthetics overall, could add two more frames for shooting towards upper side of the map for extra polish, but otherwise marvelous work on that. Sound made me quite amused and worked really well with everything else. Gameplay loop was solid and fun and the difficulty curve was spot on as I had felt at ease at start and had trouble later on. Altogether its a lovely quite polished coffee-break game!

Awesome work!

fishmasterino 2023-01-19 12:32

outstanding art and animation, I felt the first phase was a bit too long since the tomato is where the real challenge is at

schmalex 2023-01-24 17:14

I'm in love with the art style! Congrats on making such a straightforward and polished game. Would love to see it developed further!

sdelay 2023-01-24 21:16

Great job ! * Love the graphics, the menu picture * The wind effect making some of the grass move * the shot animation * the mechanic : simple yet effective * the fact that carrots are coming from differents place, like army strategic positions * The boss idea: "oh no it's the tomato" made me laugh! * The boss is waaaay too hard to defeat in my opinion * The progress bar : it's a good idea to have one, but the guy walking is not logical, because the actual hero is staying in the garding, not moving.

Anyway, I Love it.

sephowepho 2023-01-24 22:43

Really really nice job, I've only got a few points of feedback for this one! This might've been me personally, but I think that the difficulty spike between the first and second round was a *bit* too steep -- I know the first round acts as the tutorial, but that means if you die on the second round, you have to go back through it again. Secondly (or as a fix for the last point), I wish it could've been a *little* easier to hit the enemies, or bring the concequenses for missing down a bit, because I found myself failing in high intensity combat just because I was a few pixels to the right or left of the collider I was trying to hit; it wasn't *bad* by any means, but I think that change would make restarting a lot less likely. :clap:

That said though, I really liked it, good job, all of you! Keep it up, and I'll see you next jam! >:3

maimai 2023-01-24 22:47

Haha, love the art, animation, and those mouth sound effects :laughing: Quite simple idea but well executed, well done!

artofluba 2023-01-26 00:33

Nice little entry! I really like the art.
