I love the artwork, though the gameplay could use some more improvement, in terms of difficulty (the worms get to you fast wow) as well just features I suppose.

The game's art is cool, the ememy spawning could be more balanced though since they overwhelm you really fast
Really fun game! I’ll admit it took me a while to get past the first few minutes, maybe I’m just bad at it. I really liked how you used the theme, it’s a great idea since roguelites fit perfectly with it, and that hadn’t even crossed my mind. The sound effects also add a nice punch to the actions. Anyway, congrats on the game!
I see. PVZ inspired roguelike shooter game. I like the cantaloupe guy, very interesting take on the theme :))
A few issues I had was that the peashooter gun doesn't lock-on enemy correctly sometimes - I guess it's an issue where the lock position is not aligned with the barrel. Moreover, the retry button doesn't work properly, cause when I press it it go back to the beginning scene but nothing moves afterward, only the looping ambient noise. Lastly I guess the map doesn't have an end point on any of its sides, so I just.... walk away :))))
Well, just some thoughts of mine. Some improvement post-jam could help a lot, cause I think it's still a really cool concept. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much for the review I really really appreciate it 🙏🏼
And yes, all of what you mentioned are bugs that I could not fix in time
Im currently working on an improved version fixing all of these problems with better balancing and quality of life stuff and I'll release it when the voting ends.
enjoyable little guy. I wish I could've done more about the endless torrent of worms
Funny take on the theme haha. I like all the small "juice" you added to the game. It's kinda interesting that the gun shoots all by itself even though you had a button to control the shooting, so I'm not sure it was a bug or a feature where you try to make it survivors-like.
Ah, it says Mouse - Aim and Shoot on the game page, so I assumed it means you have to manually aim and the manually shoots the gun like a usual FPS game or a top down shooter game, but now I see it can also means just aim with your mouse. No worries though. Also the seed planting mechanics is kinda interesting take on the upgrade loop of a survivors game.
I kinda wish I'd been able to aim and shoot myself instead of it being automatic, but the game's very cute and I had fun playing!
Fun vampire survivors like game!
The game had good and fun upgrades, and the fences were a great obstacle.
Overall it was a simple but really fun game. Good job!
Is there a way to harvest plants or do they give you their boost automatically once they've grown up?
cantaloup sounds like loop hahah
nice game, maybe regeneration of life over time could be more generous though, cool game
