It gets easy, after a couple of rounds, the shooters take em out quick and also they cannot be damaged.You need to workshop it a bit but it could be a good game.

This game is great but its a little short, you could make it better by adding more waves

GimmeSumJava responds:

Yes because it was for a game jam it is pretty short. But I'm heavily considering making a post jam sequel with actual levels/upgrades and such.

Solid proof of concept. Designed for multiplayer but doable solo. The ability to move through your own plants might be nice for Tinker, but then that might be intentional so you're more considerate about where you're planting. Some information on what plants do what as well as some larger font would also be nice. Sprout probably doesn't need as much real estate as he has in game, between the speed plants grow and the rate Tinker can put them down much of the Sprout area feels like wasted space when a larger defense zone would allow greater exploration of level design.

GimmeSumJava responds:

Oh you should be able to move plants once planted.

Good point on the larger play area. I will consider that.

Thanks for the feedback :)

Great game
would love to see full version
