There isn't sound, your computer isn't broken.
UPDATE: Hallelujah! The bug was fixed. Now the inventory should work properly. Thanks to you guys for finding the bug!
WARNING The game is terrible and buggy. Didn't have time to fix it.¯_(ツ)_/¯ It was fun to make the game, even if it stinks!!
If you are interested in the game, I'll be updating it occasionally during this month.

I spent way too much on art instead of gameplay. You don't even want to know how much code that isn't used is in the game. Oh well, something for next time.
There was just the 4 plant types right? The graphics are a bit basic, but I liked the various growing plant sprites. On a separate note, it did seem the plants didn't plant quite where the target cursor was at. Would also suggest adding a way to remove wilted plants.
It does obviously need some more work to feel like a full game, but for a compo it has a lot going on. Would be great to see this further developed!
