I like the idea and I love plant games. I wish the camera was more zoomed in. Also you have so much empty space I'm not sure why you needed two separate menus. Being able to control speed a little would be nice as well.
I'm starting to get the hang of this one. The water was difficult to manage. It goes red if it goes above 60% and below 40%, and the water button works on a 10% increment. (Making it easy to over correct.) I'm not sure if the actions and toggles should be in two separate tabs like they are currently. I'm finding myself swapping between them constantly.
A fun game none the less.
I could definitly see this becoming a chill idle game. Some more visual queues on when to do what. More time to react and slower changing values will make it almost perfect in my opinion. Great Job!
pretty nice game but my plants keep dying
It's a pretty relaxing game. My only critique is I need to to quite a few steps to switch between toggles and watering my plant.
Seems well coded and drawn. But the plant is the most important part of this game (and you drew really nice sprites for it): Make it bigger! The mechanics are all there for a fun game, they just need to be tuned somewhat. Interesting take on the theme too, good job!
I will not lie, I actually like the game. I think I found it helpful that my plant died the first time in order to start playing well.
The things that I see that would heavily improve the game (not that I am a seasoned game dev or someone better just what I feel like suggesting) is that you increase the font size, maybe make the game fit into a smaller box with all controls laid out through the left side of the screen instead of buttons for navigation, the plant in the middle as the center of attention with some light or something, and all indicators as you have them.
I feel like that would make it easy to see, compact thus easy to navigate, and a spotlight on the plant we want to keep alive. Overall, I enjoyed the idea and I am sure adjustments would make it more fun.
font size is very small ):
