Wow, this also has some amazing presentation. Graphics are amazingly nice. The game mechanic is good but I think it's a bit too simple. it's fun to watch the flowers grow, and actually the most fun I had was hopping around like a maniac

Aaahaha, that theme song is THE BEST! Very good graphics, smooth gameplay and some puzzling challenges. I failed to complete the level where I was supposed to end up with three flowers and three coins because the farmer's collision box overlapped two plants one time making me pick an incomplete flower. I assumed that the game would tell me that I had lost once I was out of seeds but I now realize that I probably had to sell the flowers I had collected just so that I would completely run out of options... Anyways, I couldn't restart the level so I quit. I will probably try again later. This game has personality and a quality feel. I guess I'll make that count as production.

Neat concept, very polished and well done. I think the bugs should have been introduced earlier, as they help make the game more interesting. The first time I played, I didn't hear the sounds. They are funny! Snow!

The theme song was hilarious =). Nice little game, but it was pretty easy and got repetitive after a while. The graphics was nice, but not as nice as some other entries I've given a 4.

Good graphics and gameplay mechanics. Gotta love homemade music ala beatbox-ish.

The severely minimal instructions made this one harder to play than it should have been, and there isn't too much going on after you figure it out. Again, a different take on the "farming sim." And it looks nice.

I just couldn't really get into this game at all. I tried. I played a bunch of levels. Looked well put together and complete however.

Oh God, it's Snow! I just about fell out of my chair at the theme music. Ends up being a touch overused, though.
This one held my attention for a while. It's quite well-paced; by the time you get tired of what you're doing, the game has given you something else to do, which is welcome. A nice range of goals and strategies. I wouldn't have minded being introduced to more kinds of plants with different growing patterns in later levels, though. The graphics are nice. The sound effects are workable -- certainly I wouldn't have noticed the difference between "seeds!" and "lots of seeds!" without them -- but sometimes very quiet for no reason.

Nice graphics, for a while fun gameplay (maybe 15 levels, then it gets repetitive), innovative. The sound volume was set to very, very low, but to be honest (sorry!) this may have been good, as I didn't much like the song. Kudos for actually doing it though.

A nice looking, well written game. The idea had a lot of promise, but without any goals or challenges it gets old pretty fast. I did have fun planning how to finish each level efficiently though. Perhaps just a timer and a par time for each level would have done the trick.

Pretty nice puzzle type thing, but after you've completed a few levels, the rest is pretty much "duh". There's not enough variety in it to make anything really tricky. I always like 'action' versions of farming though, for some reason. Jumping around and weeding.

Great theme song

Nice idea and it fits well on theme of competition. Graphics and sounds are great.. But.. there is not much to play after you discover what it is all about.

I'm not sure. This is a fun little game, but a farming theme when it looked like farming was going to be the main theme just before the start... So I'll just give average marks.

Plant seeds to grow flowers and collect the required number of objects to pass the level. If you wait after your flower grows, it will produce seeds and after that, fertilizer. I played this for a while, but it the later levels got boring. The bugs present a lose/lose situation though- if you touch them you make them change direction and you lose seeds, but if you jump over them they eat your plants. Sounds were funny but the title music was just annoying.

Way too slow paced for my liking. I think I had to progress through about 8 levels before there where any enemies. I think its got potential, more variation in plants, more enemies - could have a decent puzzle game on your hands. Animation was very good. Btw make the plants grow faster!

I really enjoyed this game as well. Though I am now thoroughly sick of hearing "Lotta seeeeeeds" and "Nice flower"! Things get quite hectic the further you get.
