This is really cool! I got stuck inside the trex for about 80hp lol. Pretty amazing, I'll get the unicorn someday.

Pretty cool art, had some good chuckles, scoring seemed random, couldn't choose to retake the picture, not very much content.
This is a rather good game. The aesthetic really seemed to clash with the "selling people for guns" thing. I assume they were originally going to be rum barrels or something before the theme was announced lol. The damage upgrade could maybe be nerfed a little bit. At my first port i got the broadside cannon (which was fun to use) with a couple damage upgrades. From then on I one shot everything. But yeah, the theme vs vibe mismatch was a bit strong.
Got to about 80% and then couldn't seem to get any higher. The controls were a little finnicky but overall I thought it was fun. Good job!
Great submission here. Graphics were definitely on point, gameplay made sense but got a bit boring after a while as the gameplay didn't change much over time.

I awoke on a conveyor belt with comrades. I realized I could hop upon my fellows in order to escape. After many minutes of striving, I escaped! I wandered around in the void and tried to investigate the horrors I narrowly avoided.
walked straight through the wall and got et enyway
@balance686 what os are you on? I have not been able to recreate this yet.
It seemed like the idea was cool. Like it didn't seem like you had to finish a level so you just grab what you could and move on. There didn't seem to be a clear goal though so the ending was very sudden. I didn't really feel like I solved many puzzles and I didn't really use the trading system. I don't know, I was mostly confused throughout.
I think the prank is it's not possible to win. But maybe I'm bad. I had 25 right but was still dead after the first shift.
got to wave 8 by thinking i had tricked the game by buying tons of health regens and then spamming damage upgrades for a few minutes. wave 8 laughed at my 3 times stacked health bar.
game won't go past the first image? am I missing something?
@bigwhiteshogun Thank you! This is incredibly good. One of those games where really all I'd like is more levels lol. One minor qualm is that you "die" earlier than expected since going back in time takes the same lives as dying does. My first run through i was stuck in a cavern with 0 hourglasses in the kid. It was until my 3rd time reloading the page I realized the game would restart once you reached the bones age. I think this system is fine, but maybe help the player figure out they are supposed to suicide to restart. It initially felt like a "reset" button was missing. Very good entry though. Enjoyed it all.
Very good, i was having overwatch ptsd. I think they could have been complaining about how few kills i had a bit more. lol good game
This game feels insanely good and creative! I felt so stressed playing it though and had so little idea what she was talking about the whole time. Played like 4 times and saw sooo much red lol. Great game!
I am also on mac and the mac build was still saying cannot be opened. It did not tell me more than that so can't really say why. played the windows version on a vm
The graphics are so clean!
@peterfiftyfour It is because there is no link to a easily usable game. punks like me are too lazy to compile the game to play. Could you guys host your build somewhere? you can host on Itch.io for free! I hear it is very good ;P
the music and the models in this game are fantastic. I spent the beginning of my play spinning around and wondering why i was in this herd of crazy cars and who i was supposed to be shooting with my cannon. Then the music clicked. I am an icecream truck and supposed to be shooting everyone lol. good game!
I managed to get 10000 units i believe and it was a struggle. Buying things didn't seem to take money which confused me. bought my kid quite a few tablets lol. good game!

maximum science achieved!
I love the models. I often early in a game would drop an fairly easy feeling ball. I can't quite put my finger on why, but I think i was having trouble telling whether the ball further y or z of me. Maybe having the ball change color slightly when it goes higher might help. Or maybe i just have horrible depth perception lol. Good game!
the music was very fitting and the art was adorable! I think i would like to see some juice applied to the buttons though. They felt a bit static. Very good game
dang ,this is heckin pretty. no gameplay, but i'd say 'worth it'
very hard, very well put together though. good job
lol very good, very tough. I was confused at the beginning how to get out of my fishbowl. But once i managed to get out I was free to flop about to my heart's content. Good job!
@ryan123rudder It was most obvious on the spawning fishbowl. it felt like i immediately hit something and tried flicking about 45 forward. I then tried directly upwards assuming 'maybe there are walls'. That also collided. I tried 45 forward again and it worked. The few fishbowls i got into later on also seemed to work right. I really like that "spicy" poster lol
@ryan123rudder I just tried again I think what i had been doing was make small jumps out of the initial fish bowl. It looks like jumps of less than 50% power weren't getting you out of the fishbowl. I was on a laptop touchpad which may have been why i was having some issue. At full power flicks i had no trouble getting out of the fishbowl so i think it is working, I'm just bad lol.
@briibot @joh Thanks a lot for your extended reviews! We are working on a bit of a "Gardening Guide" to help with this because it is a bit more complicated than is immediately apparent. Hopefully the gardening guide will be up later today, but the short version is growth, hp, and water are all separate meters, but water is connected to both. High water allows a plant to mature faster, and if they are fully watered, they will heal. Low water plants will begin to take damage and mature slower if not already grown. Plant color is determined by their current health
@huang-sicheng Thanks for playing and sending a review! Yeah, the nuke is very expensive. But you will only ever need to buy one. *hint hint*
@peterfiftyfour wow nice, how'd you lose so few plants!? I only beat it the first time myself yesterday lol. I was quicker, but lost so many more plants youwin.png
@sandra-jasionowska nope, losing the lemons is permanent lol. Thanks for playing!
@spreadsheetlover hm, is it just our game that is giving you frame issues? Controller support is definitely near the top of the priorities if we decide to continue building this. Depends on what people think lol
@trexxak that is weird, glad it worked out :P
@lars-erik thankyou! we had big dreams about all the plants and enemies that would be in the game. most of it got jammed out of the game lol
@ekilibr nope, no cheat codes. You just have to farm really hard. if you ever have money, invest it in plants, if you have too many full grown plants sell 'em and buy new plants. The fastest I've heard someone getting the nuke ending is around 16 minutes.
Thanks for playing our game!
The graphics and aesthetic of this game are fantastic! I liked the bit of world building. Despite the tutorial i was still confused about was going on and almost immediately killed all my flowers because i had not put a light down first lol. A second run I lasted much longer, but the shadows just avoided all my traps. Also, the goose said some things that were a pox upon my eyes lol. Other than that, fantastic!
I really like the graphics and the music also goes very well. The slight murmuring also makes this game feels quite alive despite the guests not actually walking around lol. I found myself incredibly struggling with just trying to keep the hype up that I didn't really feel free to try and explore i was just a constantly running to and from the kitchen but i was wanting to explore. But yeah, also the camera was very difficult to handle i kept overshooting just about everything lol. having a settings menu to adjust that would be phenomenal. Good game!
Great game!
this is an incredibly interesting way to play. I tried playing without looking but the controls being relative to the ship and the sound being relative to the screen made that hard lol. good job!
I liked the theme and the unicorns dance moves. The unicorn's dancing was definitely a highlight. I think also the main character looked pretty good, but he looked a bit static while idling, even if he had a toned down pulse effect like the enemies, i think he might fit in better with the unicorn and enemies. The camera also felt a bit claustrophobic when i was trying to stand between the unicorn and the enemies. If the camera focused on a average of the player and unicorn positions, maybe 2/3 hero 1/3 unicorn I would have felt less blind. But maybe you actually want the player sitting right next to the unicorn. I liked it, it was pretty and the unicorn danced like mad. My first play through i never even stepped off the dance pad, I didn't even check to see if there were walls lol. that unicorn didn't last very long
a tax paying hero
wow this was art. I was getting a little emotional. even worse i missed the node revealing the *event* and had to keep trying knowing what was going to happen sadlol. The clearing the fog image was so strong and well done! 5/5
I really like your artstyle. I went back and played nudacus too lol. Good games
Hello, your mac download link is having some trouble. I would like to try it out :P Screen Shot 2020-04-21 at 9.19.10 AM.png
Hello, with the current state of your ludum dare page, I do not think you will get many people trying your game. The reason has nothing to do with your game. It is because you need to advertise. Boot up your game, take some screenshots and put them on this page. Whip out photoshop or paint and doodle up a nice title graphic for your page and put it right at the top of the page. Then put some text to engage the user so that they will download the game. Tell them a bit more about your game, the goal, the controls. Anything to keep them on the page and increase the chances of pressing the download button. When i stopped by your page I almost didn't download because it looked a bit empty.
on a side note, your post is what brought me here, so you're doing that right :)
lol the voice over and art are sick loved it. This is heccin hard! I was having health economy issues lol. Very polished, good job!
This is a very solid entry! Keep submitting to jams! I would suggest trying to invite a friend to join you in a future jam. Working with people has made my jamming experience even better
dang when this game started it was feeling very simple. but then you added multipel people and a story and expectations subverted lol. Very good submission! I did not quite beat lel XP
this is very good game I really like the art and the music. I'm a fan of point and clicks and clicked on just about everything even before even thinking about looking at the map. I think i may have accidentally solved all the puzzles or collection bits before needing to collect things became a stated goal lol. EXCEPT for the lady in the bar, ohmygosh i clicked on her like 3 times. The 3rd time i clicked, i had the key item, but the conversation started out the same and i almost quit lol. Being able to skip repeat dialogue would go a long way in making this feel better. Good game
this game looks very good. it also interesting and tough. good job

very good game :) I liked to give everyone I could chicken nuggets.
This plays very smooth! Also I like your music choice? or did you make that?
@sanjana sweet, ill have to check it out it was good
I love the light bouncing system!
that wizard is genius. turn people's moms into carvavans. I would never have thouhgt of that
I don't know how you would balance it really in this game, but I would really like to be able to catch more than 3 blocks. Right now, i actually felt encouraged to kill off my own blocks as they leveled up so slowly grabbing a higher level wild one was preferable to try to waste fruit grinding my current blocks. Even though they were just blocks i still wanted to collect all of them lol good job
This is a very interesting submission. I went through quite a few endings :P
the art especially the horse and the cave itself were fantastic. Also exploring around was very fun. I once was climbing dropping platform and hopped into the wall without a plan only to find a hidden cave. It was pretty hype. One thing that i think would greatly benefit this game is a short idle animation, the animations were fantastic and pretty which made the idle feel a bit lifeless in comparison. I had fun searching around for all of the apples, good game :)
This is remarkably cute
Hello, this game was very pretty and once i understood the mechanics they were interesting and fun. Felt a bit like a puzzle platformer except i was only allowed to think for about 4 seconds lol was very stressful. I would love it if maybe instead of dying and starting all the way over you can keep in the game nearer to where you died. Maybe checkpoints? Very good game though! It was very fun
Wow this game was fantastic.
one thought was that the 2d controls felt very slow. the other, when it was over was, "oh man, I want more"
very good game
the link doesn't seem to work :/ i wanna chess man
edit: sweet :)
i made it to lap 7 before i wondered what other things you could do in the car. did not make it to lap 8 lol
very nice
The game creates quite a beautiful scene
im using chrome on windows, and the dudes are booking it so fast the bullets never hit anyone lol Untitled.png

Thanks for the reviews people
it had humor pretty sure the black hair girl is invincible
moahFly.jpg possibly the most intense lawn mowing game ever. was fun :P
