Honestly wasn't expecting the animals to explode in a shower of blood lol. I like how the paths change in each run and more appear as you progress. It took a while to figure out how everything worked but it only took one retry to understand. Only managed to reach wave 9 but I liked what I saw!

The art and animations were fantastic. I managed to get to the next day, but near the end had to do a lot of headbutting. Sometimes I was confused about what different plants did, when I put the fly traps down it seemed like they weren’t really doing anything whereas the melon bombers defense was really clear, and I think a short description of their skills would help out. The difficulty curve is good! Adding the new pathways increases the difficulty a lot (especially when you’ve run out of seeds) so strategically placing/saving seeds for different paths becomes clear in the second playthrough. Plays and looks really well in full screen! The plants do have a slightly different pixel aspect ratio than the MC which caught my eye - but having to make separate sprites for all of their states would just be a crazy amount of work for such a short period of time. Would have loved to see a little idle animation for the owl as well, the MC’s bobbing is done perfectly. Also love their colouring.

Managed to get to day 2! Really like the sprites and the animations! For the players sun shot, I couldn't tell if it was hitting at times and felt like it wasn't doing much. Maybe increasing the rate of fire but lowering the damage so the player can see it more visually would be of help? Or, adding health bars to the enemies. I also liked the nice variety of towers and animals attacking.
