How does your game fit the theme?
The loop concept appears in the game core mechanic: the day cycle. Every 3 seconds, the game shifts form night to day, and vice-versa. Your goal is to make your plant grow to 100% while facing many hazards. If you happen to wither on your journey, your remains will be shown in the screen to remind you of your failure, thus consisting in a life loop.

Congrats on your first game!
It's got a good idea, and it is implemented well.
:)

I would suggest making the day and night longer; but also make each sun/moon tile disappear after a short time.
This should make things more interesting because it will force the player to move around.
They can't just find a nice spot and camp for the cycle.

I like the day and night cycle concept. Art was clean and movement was well done. Nice job.

Pretty fun game loop (but it eventually got a bit repetitive). Good first game though!

Love the concept of day/night shifts. Also, the swarm of enemies and the random tiles make staying alive really challenging. Great game!
