I thought that this was a fun little game! The art for the upgrades looks great, and I think with some extra polish the rest of the game would look really good. The clicking did start to feel tedious over time, but the balancing for each wave scales well, which is pretty hard to get right in a game jam timescale.
Great work!
It's a cool game! I liked the idea and the artwork (and the frog) but my hand started to get tired from clicking.
loved the artwork! and the time taken to do sounds too is very impressive!
the controls didnt all work in the beginning but once they did damn it was really fun! i was addicted i would totally play more of this, loved the upgrades and the game loop
Nice artwork and interesting concept. As other have pointed out the clicking become very intensive soon ^^
I would have like a bit more polish to see the radius of my action for instance and a bit more variety in gamepaly.
I also found kinda of an exploit where you just leave the last mob alive and cleanup all the forest before the next wave.
Like the aesthetic and has good design, just not my type of game. Great job though!
I like that there's no player character, but rather you're "tending to your garden," so to speak. The art style is coherent and the sound design is fitting too. I'm not entirely sure what the gameplay loop is, other than clicking and upgrading?
I like the concept! I think I'm going to damage my hand if I keep playing though, it really started to hurt after around round ten or so. The screen also wouldn't stop shaking after my first close call, which was really hard to look at after a certain point. Other than injuring me, though, I liked the idea!
Made it to wave 12 and maxed out all the upgrades, my finger went numb :D Would love some way to automate the clicking, and maybe a slightly smaller arena. Also I think there's a bug with cleaning the ground: you can keep digging the same spot forever and nothing seems to happen, but the second you move the mouse off it, it instantly turns clean
very soothing I got into a grove of just clicking away. now my hand hurts tho, haha.
Do not play it in the bed on touchpad, I think I broke my wrist. Purifying the tiles was somehow relieving/satisfying!
Fun game loop. The only thing I couldn't figure out was the powerups on the bottom.
