Really cool style and fun controls - the background audio killed it for me though.

This has really good gameplay and puzzle design. Played through the whole thing. I really like the physics, super solid and never frustrating. I wish the rest of the game's sounds and visuals matched how vibrant and expressive the main sprites are. Great job overall!
I really love the style on this one! The thing that tripped me up was the controls, but cute little game altogether.
Super fun! Graphics remind me of PS1 days.
Generally I don't like games where you just walk around, but this has a really good vibe to it, and you get a bit of environmental narrative that keeps it engaging.
Like the others have said - you don't really get feedback for the actions you do, so it's hard to tell what is going on. Played the web version if that makes a difference.
When I lost the first time... I wanted to try again because I wanted to see what new plants there could be... but then I didn't want to try again because I would have to do all that clicking again while listening to the kiss sound. Great visuals and interesting creatures!
Fun, polished, challenging!
Not sure if I was missing something - but all I could do was mine and build roads.
My longest play I scored a 267, I don't how good that is. Graphics are amazing. Sound is good. I really like the gameplay. It was hard to understand at first what was going on with the watering can - but after that I really got into the flow of the game and had a lot of fun. There is something odd about watering mushrooms though..
The feel and look are great. It's got that SNES Out of this World vibe mixed with a more modern narrative game.
A smooth game with a neat, finished look. Pretty fun, and the population growth mechanism is a fun twist on a game like this.
