Vegarden by Baptiste Barreyre

[raw]
made by Baptiste Barreyre for Ludum Dare 46 (COMPO)

You need to protect your flowers from the hords of vegans raiding your garden.

Plant them in the Flower Holes to gain some score!

  • Use ZQSD keys (WASD on an AZERTY keyboard) Or the arrows work aswell

  • Your mouse to look around

    • Right Click to change items
    • Left Click to throw items

You can switch your keyboard to AZERTY and the controls will work as WASD :sweat_smile:

This is my first Ludum Dare, I hope I did everything right, thanks to the organizing staff :smile:

Hi there, I couldnt use W or A to move my character, but could use my controller to move but I had to use it in conjunction with the mouse to play the game. Liked the audio effects alot and the game loop is cool.

This game was very funny! W and A did not work for me to move so I had to use the arrow keys. The audio was funny and I loved how you threw meat at the vegans to kill them. Great job!

Very fun game. It's got a sort of creepy atmosphere that I like. The only thing I wish is that the controls and collision was a little bit smoother.

It took multiple runs for me to figure out what to do, I hadn't understood the flower mechanic at all, and was having difficulty using qwerty controls. I eventually started using arrows and that was so much better, and I figured out the flower mechanic and started racking in points (I somehow missed the instructions on this page). I eventually got 620, which feels half decent!

The game was pretty good, certainly a strong start. The voices were cool, I just wish there were more lines than just 'flowers'. The setup's pretty funny, and the gameplay is a nice take on the theme. It was pretty brutal how things could be lost forever, but I also think that was a good choice to avoid the game going forever. Congrats on your first LD! :heart:

@justcamh Thanks for the feedback! I should've explained the flowers.
But I'm glad you still managed to get a hang of it.
And for the keyboard I'm French so "ZQSD" are my "WASD", you can switch your keyboard to AZERTY or use the arrows ;)

Interesting concept. I liked the fact that you threw meat at the vegans to make them go away. The only problem I had with the game was that the flower planting concept felt a bit hollow. It wasn't explained why you needed to plant them, and, maybe im stupid, but there was no way to get more to fill up the whole garden.

@awerar Yes it seemed clear in my head but I didn't have time to impletement it clearly. And no you can't fill the whole garden ^^
