Too slow for my personal taste but I see you were going for a more dreamy vibe. The music is very good, it evokes some memories, but it stopped playing for me after few minutes, seems it's not looping or some bug.

I liked the music and I thought the art worked well even with such a simple style, it was enough to set the mood. The controls could use a little work, I thought you were meant to play with the numpad but I still ended up needing my left hand to press 1.
This game really draws you in with its atmosphere. The art, and especially the music, put me in a rather gloomy mood. I’d say the character should move faster, but his slow speed suits the mood of the game
I like the music and the visuals of this game as also the idea of it. The character moves very slow I guess cause otherwise they would be OP. In general all game's movements could be faster imo. The plant boss was a well made boss fight with different attacks depeneding on the phase you are in. Good work!
The music was very nice, and I like the theme it was very intriguing! I would love to see this with a better attack mechanic!
Environment and atmosphere was compelling! Was a bit confused the first time around when I got to the plant without getting any items and couldn't attack, but restarted got items and went back and defeated the plant.
Nice work, I like the aesthetic quite a lot, choice of colour and music worked really well.
I wasn't too clear on what was happening but I was able to defeat the plant monster after a bit of wandering around.
I like that the boss felt kinda like a bullet hell enemy where your attacks and aim aren't as important as dodging.
I think having arrow keys for movement and 1 for attacking was a little strange and could use some additional choices like WASD/Spacebar.
I really like the music and graphics for the game. It made it feel relaxing with a bit of mystery. I was able to beat the plant boss with the shovel with no major issues. I did notice that the normal music stopped after a little bit, so maybe it needs to be on a loop? Would also love to play it in fullscreen!
I'm sorry, but I didn't fully understand how the game works. I reached what seemed to be a boss fight with a huge plant, but I wasn't sure what I was supposed to do there. Can you attack or interact with it somehow?
The music was good, but it stops looping.
