Gun Garden by ElliotFiske
Choose what seeds you want to grow at the beginning of each round, then defend them from an onslaught of cubic enemies!
Each seed you grow makes your gun evolve to gain better stats.

The enemies seem to converge a bit too quickly on the centre and then spend too long once they're there, so you're mostly just shooting into the centre. I'd suggest making them move a bit slower, giving the seeds less health and maybe putting the seeds in a few other locations too.
The other thing that seemed a bit odd was that you couldn't get hurt by the enemies (unless I'm mistaken?). That could add an extra element of strategy and tension to the game.
Also, some shapes other than boxes for enemies would be nice. :-)
Yay, woo.
