Theme Implementation
The theme led to a small neighborhood garden heist: sneak into nearby gardens, steal flowers, and bring them home to win the daily judging
Special Object addition
The required special object was a shovel. I planned to build the planting mechanic around it, but didn't have time, so it stayed a background/theme element while gameplay focused on stealing and replanting flowers

OMG what a sad concept TT I really liked the day/night cycle, though. good luck with developing the game!
Really fun idea! It did take me a minute to realise what 'bring it back to your garden' meant - maybe your 'home' garden could be made a little more visually distinct from the neighbouring gardens somehow? But it was enjoyable to play :) Nice work!
really great concept, super fun idea… floral crime! gameplay-wise, adding more variety to the neighbors’ routes and movement patterns would make it even better
Very fun. I did struggle to see the line of sight.
Simple and fun. I really enjoyed playing it.
This was a lot of fun! Starting the QTE immediately was a little jarring at first, but I really enjoyed playing it.
