Even though this is unfinished, I did have a lot of fun watching the butterfly bounce around :D like a DVD menu screensaver. Nice music choice too!

Jam Judge

The idea seems promising, cool game

Even if unfinished, the concept is great :D

Could become a really good game with polish.

Good game concept, I really wish to see this game completed.

"interesting" comes to mind when I play this game... I feel like the game itself is a bit lacking; its definitely a game, but it feels like it isnt. some clear goals, obstacles, and a way to lose might be missing.

also the music starts to lag and jitter after a while. funny coincidence I used the same music for my [game]

Developer

Thank you the Host. This mechanic has been in my head for some time and I just have to get it out. While I am designing and playing at the same time, I could not come up with anything that can make the winning and losing screen interesting, hence I left it open. 

Thanks for playing.

Definitely a very cool game concept; one of the more original ones I’ve seen in this jam. Not quite a game itself yet, but you’re already on a good track.

Using a bouncing NPC to convert the outside edge of the grid is a really cool mechanic. I see lots of potential for implementing a really interesting puzzle game based on it. However, without a losing condition (some kind of countdown timer or other mechanics within the grid that'd lead to losing) your game feels more like a technical demo than a game, but I think it's really awesome that you submitted your game in its current state, even if it's unfinished—I wish more folks would do that instead of giving up. Based on what I've seen so far, I don't think you're far from making something really special. I'd be curious to check it out again if you continue to developing it. Thanks for making and submitting your game!

Developer

You are right. Feels like a tech demo. I am still in the sandbox mode of the game. And I originally plan to add more plant types and obstacles to make it more engaging. Thanks for the encouragement. !

Interesting game, not joking. Maybe adding some puzzles in the grid would give it more potential. I think the theme doesn’t fit too much with the game. 18/25

A cool idea for a game with some real potential for the future. Although I seem to always end up with 1 flower left that I can get the bee to hit. Also there some bugs I found, firstly if you repeatedly hit the spacebar to rotate it, the game crashes. I found this happening quite a lot, especially when I was trying to chase down the bee to get the last flower to bloom. Another problem was that when the bee bloomed the flowers, although it was meant to bloom the flowers beside it, it would bloom the flowers it was originally beside, so if you were like me and tried to bunch them up, a flower on the opposite end would bloom with them. Still a cool concept and I would love to see how it will be developed

Developer

thanks for the lengthy explanation. Some of the flower bloom in unexpected places I likely need to patch that out.

Would've love to see where this would end if given more time!

Nice, you managed to update it just in time! I like the concept, you could have added a timer to try to finish it as quick as possible. :)

I agree that would have been a really cool idea!!
