I kind of felt bad for the flowers in the end, but I'll do anything to save my wife. Well done!

I like the idea, and the unique designs for all the flowers gave me a good laugh. However, there's not much of a challenge to it, you just keep cutting down flowers without much else. The shop is a nice addition to make getting rid of the flowers easier, but it's still just kind of mundane. Also, I don't know if I did something wrong or whatever, but I couldn't actually use a weapon I had just purchased.

Loop, Swoop & PullYeah, this was really fun. I loved the off-kilter tone, the weird, obnoxious flowers and the whole vibe, although I kept expecting something more horrible to come along. I managed all 1000 flowers in the end. Funny ending - nice work (I would have liked some kind of horrible punchline, though)!

Buzz!Such a unique and creative idea. And also really fun with great progression. Awesome game!

Retro MortisFunny concept and story, i liked some of the flower designs, tho i don't see how it fits the theme...

Until I Find TreasureGreat idea and well executed. Very fun with the more destructive weapons cutting down a whole swathe of flowers at once. I did find the scissors and sword a little odd, sometimes they cut and sometimes they didn’t and I couldn’t quite work out what the “correct technique” was.
I also find a sorta bug, first when going inside at the end of the night I could tap it more than once meaning the door sound played a lot and sometimes I ended up back outside :D
Also I got to 995 flowers but couldn’t find the last 5 :(
Great fun though, well done.

Nova LooperAtmosphere and art is really stylish, love love love it. The gameplay itself was not very compelling as I was just kind of running around spamming LMB (ow!) with not much else to do. However I do really love the vibe that you've created here. Great job!

METEMPSYCHOSISInteresting game! The guns felt really satisfying to use and the katana felt clean. I'm using Firefox and I was able to play the game. However, I'm not sure if the lag from cutting lots of flowers happens to other people or its only because I'm on Firefox. Otherwise, great job!

Dead-End LoopCute and silly game and was a blast to play! Nice graphics and tutorial!

Circuit LoopThis game was absolutely great to play, I was laughing to myself when the flower came up and flipped me off and overall the game is just super satisfying to play and progress on as you get more upgrades. Great work and some additional great job on the flower designs, they came out great and hilarious!

Sleep CycleWhat an interesting little game! I will never forget the flower that appeared and flipped me off, 10/10

SHINSEI PROJECT: COLLAPSEThis is my 65th game review of the jam and I'm calling it now. This is my top game. I think it's almost perfect. It gave me the hardest laugh of the jam for sure and the loop is so appealing and enjoyable. The art stlye is right up my street from the incredible designs of the flowers to the dopey ass mine craft house you wake up and sleep in every morning.
I will say that I wish there was a way to stop yourself from automatically going to sleep after waking up but maybe I need to not be so trigger happy. Either way 5s across the board. This is brilliant and truly something I want to see (and play) way more of. I will be shocked if I'm not back to play this over and over again in the future. Thank you.

In The LoopSuper addictive loop! It also has a perfect balance of silly, creepy and cruel with the pools of flower blood they leave! Loved it!

Laika's Space Defence - Jam EditionI’m glad to have discovered this one.
- The invisible tutorial is great at teaching you how cutting works at a small scale.
- The upgrades are great
- I dig first-person 3d games with simple geos, it has a special vibe that only this kind of aesthetics brings.
- The first-person controls fully satisfy.
- The shop on the computer is charming.
- The late-game weapons are fantastic.
- Fun progression. I like how I can try my hardest to make as much money as possible.
Cons:
- The katana seems to have started acting weird after a while, where the slice area is offset a bit?
- The text speed felt a bit slow.
- The red grass flower is hard to tell if they are dead or not.
Very good!
