Seeds of Hope by lucidsheep

[raw]
made by lucidsheep for LD30 (COMPO)
Tools used:

Code: FlashDevelop (AS3), Flixel
Graphics: Paint.net
Music: Autotracker
Sfx: BFXR

I wanted to do something with parallel worlds without going for a super obvious approach. Several elements of the wild-west world influence the plant world, and vice-versa. Some are more subtle than others.

The game has four endings; the "true" ending is pretty hard to get, so congrats if you can reach it!

Very hard to shoot accurately. And just one shot stays on the screen at a time. One bullet fired incorrectly means you're effectively dead.

I got the INFINITY ending, which is the best ending to the game! I think!

Thanks for the feedback guys. Darn, so temping to go back and tweak the accuracy values a little, but that would be cheating! @danidre14, that's the second best ending. There's a TRUE ENDING as well; the game hints at how to reach it, but it's tough. Kudos if you can find it!

Hi there... Interesting game, like the timeout from fighting in the garden, though that was manic second time around. Like the writing too. Good job!

Had fun, and really liked the going back and forth between the two game modes, I think it kept things fresh a lot longer.

Like other's said, the starting accuracy is a little crazy haha, but I put all my points into it after the first round and it wasn't an issue anymore.

I like how the accuracy started very low and could be upgraded. Also, the multiple endings were nice.

Nice idea, it's good to have the rest from shooting for some gardening. Great job :)

You should say somewhere in the description that there is more than the poor accuray part at the beginning, because that one is REALLY frustrating. I have to admit I was tempted to quit but I didn't only because I saw in the screenshots that there was something else

At first I thought the accuracy was bugged then I discovered it could be upgraded. That's a nice touch. I tried to get to the good ending (at least I thought so) but it's hard!

This was an interesting approach to the theme. I liked the game play.

Cool idea, however the accuracy was unbearably bad at times.

It isn't very easy but interesting entry. I like the simple graphics using pixels.

Pretty interesting game. I actually like how your actions in the plant world can help upgrade your character in the wild west world.
