Harvest Season by Devesh Sharma
Keep Your Garden Alive!
You need to keep your garden healthy and green with decorative plants, keep yourself wealthy with cash crops and defend your garden from farmers with defensive plants! Learn to balance all of those and you will master the game
NOTE -:
I saw alot of comments saying the game is too hard and they could not finish levels so 1st of all, the levels are endless in case you wonder. And Sorry but I didn't get the time to playtest the levels except the first few season of the first level, so they game is not very balanced.

I like the use of needing to balance the greenery with the defence, I think that has real potential as an idea. Not just being able to build the strongest towers, but having to take into account the gardening aspect too.
- The tutorial is a help file, not a tutorial and I had to quit the game 3 times to go back and read it again so I could try and work out what was going on. Having it available in the game would help a lot, as would having the veg's info available on the veg so you can tell what they are.
- 5 waves of attack are too many. You don't have enough resources to build a complete defence so once one defensive veg is gone you've lost.
Shows promise but needs more work.
- It's fun!
- It's Puzzly!
- It's pretty, and the main menu has a great spinning background!
- It executes just fine on a potato pc ;)
- It's challenging
- It's the compo! not just a jam game. very impressive for the amount of time given.
- it has music! but the music disappears during game, bummer.
Drawbacks:
- I can't do anything but watch while a season is happening. And it takes a long time for 5 waves to occur. In fact, this entire response is being written with the game running in the background.
- Low variety in terms of types: everything is towers, and most towers just shoot. Status effects or specialized buildings would have been nice.
- Great variety: within the towers you do have, there are a lot of options and limited positioning makes the game more puzzle-y
Honestly a great game though, will be playing for a while to hopefully finish all the levels :)
I had an idea for a kind of plant, a painter plant which increases a target's visibility so that they can be hit from farther away.
The music, while simple, had good instrumentation and I found myself humming along. What software did you create the music and sounds with?
