Soylent Greenhouse by sararyCow

[raw]
made by sararyCow for LD34 (JAM)
Harvest as many human-plants as you can in this fast-paced puzzle game.

Find harmony between human plants and make them evolve! Balance is the key to success.

Controls:
- Press SPACE on the title screen to start.
- asdf / arrow keys to move
- T to harvest a human-plant (when is evolved)
- bring evolved human-plants to the delivery point of bottom right of the screen.

This is a weak prototype of a more ambitious game, don't steal the idea! (:D)

Didn't quite get it on my first try, but the second time I got the hang of it and managed to grow a bunch of people. Pretty interesting take of the farming game!

It was pretty interesting, but a little bit confusing =O I like the idea of growing those weird looking people and I liked the graphics and the music, but I think it was a little bit too cluttered and too vague; what do the symbols mean? There was a little poop symbol and water and sun but I wasn't sure if there was a way to make them grow better. I ended up getting 3 people but I wasn't sure why the others didn't grow. I hope that you continue to work on this game and make it better, the concept is really interesting!

For those having problems with game start: hit SPACE on the title screen to start.

The "press space to play" on the title screen was one of the details we forgot to implement because of lack of time. There are a lot more of it affecting gameplay. This game is just an early prototype of what this game may become, and things are a bit messy.

Anyway, thanks for playing and rating it! :)

Nice idea but thhe gameplay isn't really smooth and, in my opinion, there's too much informations on the screen.
But everything else is fine, good job.

I had a hard time getting anything to grow, couldn't quite figure it out. Even though, the graphics and audio were quite nice and I was able to plant some, helper plants, would you call them? Well done on your entry.
