SUPER PLANT FRENZY by Glint Games
SUPER PLANT FRENZY: Survival of the biggest!
LEFT: TURN LEFT
RIGHT: TURN RIGHT
(you're the little green thing in the middle. Don't worry, that will change!)
Welcome to SUPER PLANT FRENZY, a game about eating other things that are smaller or similar in size to you. In order to become the biggest, you need to feed!
The problem is, this temperamental one likes to eat sometimes and doesn't other times. Watch the frenzy meter above to know when your sapling can eat! Watch out though, bump into bigger things (glowing red) and you will start to wear down your health! Reach 0 and it's game over!
The blue bar represents progress, fill it by getting your future PlantZilla to eat everything, and win the battle to become the biggest!

I ran into a couple of cases where things didn't seem to work right when the plant grew - for example, one time I got stuck in the bottom wall of the playfield, and couldn't move anymore. Couldn't make it happen consistently, though.
And a suggestion: you should make it clearer that the file for download is an installer - since I didn't know it was, it made me a bit nervous when it asked to make changes to my computer.
The controls were a little difficult, but I assume that was for added challenge! Nice graphics, The sound all work well together, and that beat was bangin'. The polish left a bit to be desired, but eh. I can't really be a critic on that.
Overall, not bad.
The graphics here are great, they really get the job done. The already great gameplay is really complemented by it. Well done!
It was hard to find your character at first.
I quickly understood the green bar because of its words, but I needed to hypothesize to understand the two other bars.
I like how "the world ends" with you not being able to stop eating exponentially. =p
The graphics are great and the audio is very fitting!
Its a bit tricky to turn, when moving at the edge of the playfield. I wanted to turn 180掳 by rapidly hitting a turn key, but bumped into the wall and was a bit irritated for a little moment.
Would it be possible to ship the game without installer? I don't really like to install LD games, since most of them dont stay on my computer for too long and its a bit awkward to install and uninstall games. I personly like to unzip an archive, toss the game folder on to my desktop, play the game and delete the folder afterwards. The process sround playing the game is very quick that way. But thats just a personal opinion, which I do not involve into the game rating! ;)
the game is nice, good work ;)
