The defence of the last plant is vital for the rebuilding of civilization. Unfortunately, abominations kinda wanna eat it. The final flower is protected only by you, your shotgun and it's own mysterious defences. Best of luck.

I was initially going to enter this in the Compo, but it turns out managing time wasn't on my todo list this weekend. Either way, the Jam was still a fun experience and I wish the best of luck to everyone.

A nice simple easy to play game, would have been nice to have had an end screen for dying. As it feels a little abrupt going straight back to the 'home' screen.
Nice sound effects, the pixel art was nicely animated. The hit box on the enemies was a little bit random at times, maybe that was because I was spamming shoot?

Hey , firstly wanna say that the game is pretty awesome. here is a list of things i feel should be changed / added
1) The jump duration in air should be longer
2) enemies should come in the form of waves
Other than that , impressive work for a 72 hour game jam :D

A Good Game You got there. You should have mentioned the controls somewhere because i thought the fire button was the left mouse button... didn't know it was a space bar.

Great sound and animation. It did feel a bit strange shooting with the spacebar and jumping with the up arrow - might have been better to use the mouse for shooting. Also the shooting distance felt a little too short. But overall there's potential and the game had a nice feel to it.

nice game, good sounds.

if you would add some kind of "story" through a start and end screen it wouldn't feel so generic tbh :-)

Great Game pretty fun to play...
But the jumping was a bit too stiff,

This felt way too difficult. It was almost impossible for me to dodge the enemy's bullets and the range on the shotgun meant that I was going to get hit pretty often. I didn't feel like there was much I could do to defend it.

Interesting game. What I need to do to finish the game? Survive certain amount of minutes? Kill some number of enemies?

Cool little game with some fast action!
The jumping made me fall a little too fast so it was really hard to dodge the projectile spitter. And I think it would be helpful if you added a little controls guide on this page somewhere :)

Nice and simple game! It would be awesome to see a polished version with some more assets added to the background as it's currently looking quite empty. I agree with one of the comments above and adding a story hook, even a simple one, could flesh out the experience more. Solid game overall though!

I liked the animation of the gun!
