Thanks for your feedback
As others have said, it was a bit unclear what to do after you had planted the seeds. Perhaps some text explaining what to do right before the game starts would have helped. I think some prompt at the door or some arrow pointing to it would help players understand that you can interact with it. Level was way too large which made it hard to determine where the aliens were coming from. Perhaps the sound of alien could be local as well so you don't hear it wherever you are, would help to localize where the attack is coming from too.
