Trash
1: Something worth little or nothing
a: things that are no longer useful or wanted and that have been thrown away
b: inferior or worthless writing or artistic matter
The excess negative emotions that are worthless to us, but valuable to the frog man was meant to be the trash. The worm mini game represented jealousy, and anger and sadness scenes were also made but due to running out of time those scenes weren't finished and the idea wasn't properly conveyed. The music also was not able to be fully implemented.
If all else fails, it meets the definition of trash by having such inferior writing and artistic implementation lol
the idea is interesting and the art is very nice, one thing i noticed when playing is that the worms are pretty hard to see on dark backgrounds and even harder to see when the screen goes red.

Trash & TribulationsQuick question, when is the screen going red during the worm mini game? I haven't encountered that. I do tend to have a problem with my art appearing darker on some monitors based on the brightness but I thought the movement and bright green stripes on the worms would be enough to make them stand out.
my monitor is a bit darker than most i think because i have the brightness lowered pretty far down due to personal light sensitivity, Which in most games i fix by bumping up their brightness / contrast settings if i need them and its fair that your game jam game doesn't have those options. As for the red thing, honestly I can't recreate it now, I think it was when I took "damage" by letting a flower die but If I remember correctly it staying red after for the rest of the minigame after.
