A game with nice visuals, but not much in terms of gameplay. I like the idea of having to buy the seeds as it adds a nice extra thing to worry about. The problem is, there is nothing to worry about. There's no way to lose as when a customer's timer runs out, they just walk away. The time given of 60s is way too long, meaning you can always easily buy the seed, grow it and give it to them. Really, the player should lose if they do an order wrong or not in time and the customer's timer should be shorter with each next customer. Nobody ever wants the smart brain which, while funny, means that you just never grow any. Instead a better idea would be that sometimes a customer will come that wants a smart brain but with a very short timer <10s so you have to have it in supply. Also, when you give a customer their brain, they still accept more brains until they move away.

Thanks for the honest feedback!

Couldn't answer any comments until now. Sadly, we didn't have much time to add a "game over" mechanic and the smart brain thing was actually an unintentional bug, but I like the idea to give the brains different timers ^^

I love the visuals and I love the characters! The gameplay could use a twist, like recipes to create different brains. Perhaps a mortar and pestle to smush brains together!

My girlfriend thinks the characters should FNAF jump at you if you give them the wrong order lol.

Very strange feeling this game evokes, I felt like you created a very surreal world, kinda awesome 

At the start, I had some trouble figuring out the controls and what everything was, and with that ticking timer my smooth brain felt panicked BUT

Once I figured out what to do (and what the paper on the top right meant) it was smooth sailing though!

Awesome work the funny looking customers are funilly creepy i enjoyed them

I am glad you liked it! Looks like it hit the vibe we were looking for.
