停不下来。。。。。非常简单又好玩。就是鼠标灵敏度有点怪,有时候把握不住碰口的对准方向。
Making a simple idea utimately concreted! Like it.

Hey, good job! I really enjoyed your game, it was short but fun: the objective is clear, simple and the game is not too hard. I also really like the graphics, simple but effective !

Hey that's not that zen, that's some hardcore watering we are doing here !
I liked it a lot tho. It's beautiful, the plant must have taken a lot of time to get right I suppose ?
I also like the cute ending.
Max grade in graphics and mood at least, favorite compo game so far :)

Very zen thank you

Very interesting concept, and very satisfying! But the problem I have with it is that the mouse sensitivity was way too high, I could barely aim where I wanted. But ultimately, a very nice game.

Interesting iddea. Hard to play because of the mouse control senstivity in the game. But a good game overall!

Interesting, it was a bit confusing at first where I was not sure if I have to hit the plant or the earth. The gameplay is a bit too basic for my taste. Instead of water just recharging there could be some water ressource that you have to get trough some gameplay way. The basic look has a lot of charme though

Dude really nice execution of a great idea, the particle systems were amazing. Also, really impressed by the plant growth mechanic

The animations and sound effects really made this game pop for me - unfortunately had a hard time moving the camera around (that may be because I'm not using a mouse, though) - but overall, very enjoyable! I really appreciate how much personality the plant had! :) Nice game!

Really enjoy the art lol thought the control of mouse is a little trick for my 900dpi mouse! Anyway this is a very cute game to play with. Nice done!

不错的游戏,让人心情放松。不过也希望摄像头的控制能够更好一些。
总的来说很喜欢这种简单而又有禅意的游戏!

The bugs dying are hilarious XD. The game felt polished and the graphics is really well done! Liked the additional difficulty when the plant started moving away, or how the water gun needs to be refilled after a while. Overall, great game!

Really love the concept! The flies really felt like they were there in person. And the graphics were amazing.

What a lovely game! Might be my favourite plant game of the jam so far :) it was really polished, and looked really cute. The plant animations were fantastic, great job. My only issue was, as most others said, the mouse sensitivity, which was too high. Having a mouse sensitivity slider is pretty much a must-have in first person games. All in all, good job! I wish it was longer :)

The models, animations and particle systems are great! It looks like a fps demo with a cartoon style, well done to do it alone in 46 hours though. A little bit simple about the gameplay.

Hell yeah I'm calm now!!

Seriously though, one of my favorites so far. The plant moving was a really nice touch!

It's a nice little game, I like the art and sounds and the Plant animations were cool. The mouse sensitivity was definitely a bit much for me but I'm not great with that stuff anyways. Good job :D

优点:

1.无障碍的交流,我认为这个最厉害,从头到尾不需要文字描述,很符合直觉;

2.交互细节很丰富

缺点:

1.玩法有点单一,我确实没有体会到禅意,突突突并不能放空我的思维

2.射击手感确实有点差,还不能调节灵敏度

Yes! I got a flower!
Your game is really fun and I cannot stop myself.
Great graphics and nice game play!
But, why the flower pot is moving :laughing:

美术效果做得反馈很强,这种动画过渡不知道是如何做出来的,gaoming大大,开头木鱼很好的铺垫,很有趣的变化是,花盆开始移动,虫子的射击也没有任何反直觉的地方,基本都可以一下射死,细节很赞,需要一点点地浇花,而不是疯狂发射,有些隐藏的规则和交互方式。
