Not bad for a first shot -- it's kind of fun :) The glitches were pretty annoying, but not showstopping: at one point i was pressing 'r' everytime the room restarted as a matter of course.
The music is extremely repetitive -- if you play guitar and know music theory, why not improvise some hot licks instead?
It's strangely compelling! I found a slalom technique to be optimal for turning on multiple plants quickly. I wanted something more out of the controls, but i'm not sure what -- maybe just some feedback as to where the plow is currently headed.
Also, i was definitely creeped out by the ice spiders at first, but less so when it became apparent that they weren't bothering me :)
Couldn't really figure out the point, so i just made thousands of boats and drew lots of lines :) Even without a clear objective, some measure of progress like a score or some inventory counts or something would help make this fun.
That penultimate puzzle was a doozy! I agree that the "Bring all robots..." message comes a moment too late. As for the punishing deaths, i found them frustratingly motivating :)
Well done.

I also got stuck in the H, but i did make it to the end, and also finished. Fun despite the "ballistic" controls..
