How does your game fit the theme?
Your garden lacks walls, and instead infinitely loops on itself. To some extent too, the enemy waves also loop infinitely

(Optional) Please credit all assets you've used
The assets themselves are made by me, but I used Aseprite for the graphics and JSFXR to create the sound effects

Very cool idea and has a lot of potential. Though i completely didn't understand how you made new plants. I just kinda mixed randomly and sometimes i got a new plant. In the end I just filled the entire garden with the standard wildflower (I could've spent my time better) and just watched as everything got melted as they stepped into the flower field. Also, the art is very detailed and i like it very much. The sfx aare also very solid. So overall, very cool game. Good job!

Incredibly unique idea for a tower defense style game. Very in depth, though it is a bit confusing, even after discovering a couple of plants. A little tutorial could help, but very well done!

Developer

Will def add that in as soon as I can. The help page on the title was literally the last thing I added so it’s a bit scuffed LOOOL but thank you!!!

The garden is looped for sure but to me the real game loop is pollenating seeds to find new type of plants. Too bad I  couldn't figure out how to vary my plants cause I ended up with same plants most of the time.

I wish there's a notif or something to tell me that I couldn't plant unpollenated seeds.

Yeahhh the seed cloning and pollen crossbreeding was the first thing I added, so by the time I added the tutorial page and tweaks to make things more clear I was too used to it without thinking “Yeah maybe planting straight pollen isn’t very intuitive” LOL

Appreciate the feedback a lot I’ll def heavily adjust that stuff so players are more aware how the mechanics work, thank you :D
