LOVED the intro and the music, really creative. The mechanics were a bit tedious after a while, but simple to understand without explanation!

Simple enough it didn't need a tutorial! My plant died quite a lot :(
I think that the animations could have been a bit faster and overall the game could have done with a bit more polish. The game's idea wasn't bad though. The mechanics were also fairly easy to grasp which is a big plus.
Played until the end and loved the vibe of this game especially the sound effects. The screen transitions felt a bit janky and sometimes the items interacted with the plant when I already switched to the item select screen. Maybe interactions could be locked while doing the transition?
Nice and chill, music fits perfectly. It does not respect my phone orientation and always is in landscape mode, should be portrait though. Hope you know what I mean :laughing:
Using the scissors was a little unintuitive. I first tried clicking on the buds, then the scissor, but not the scissors then the buds.
I liked the atmosphere of this game quite a bit. Music was really appropriate, I literally checked to see if there was a mobile version of this because I was thinking of switching over to a phone since it feels so much like a phone game. Was fun, I would've liked to of seen a better ending, like a reason for harvesting the seeds, maybe sending them to another planet so this plant can grow elsewhere. But, I see you did this in 48 hours instead of the 72, so time wasn't on your side lol.
I really liked the game's atmosphere and the audio design. The animation to switch screens was very slow for me, and I think I would have found it a lot more enjoyable if I could switch between screens faster. I felt the game was very easy to understand and I liked that I could just jump in and start playing.
Nice game. Really enjoyed the mood and the audio went a long way to making this feel engaging. It felt like a good balancing act throughout. As others have mentioned, having the screen scroll faster would go a long way in improving the feel. On the whole, this was an interesting take on the theme and a nice game (with mobile support!), so you should be happy with what you've accomplished.
Atmosphere was really nice with the music, but the screen transitions were very jarring and slow when playing on PC. All the tools could have just been on the plant screen. Gameplay itself was chill and easy to understand.
It's simple, but interesting game! I'd like to add more speed in changing screens (played on PC). Well done!
I like the idea of going back and forth between screens but it was a bit painfully slow! The button to move back and forth wasn't always working for me either. I think having the tools on the planting screen would have made things a bit smoother, but it was still very satisfying to grow things :3 The whole vibe of the game was nice, with the music! Overall, really nice job!
