Technically speaking, the hitboxes seems a little off. I guess it is due to the screen resolution that is not fitting the web view size.
Maybe you could make the final screen "unskipable" for at least 2~3 seconds so people won't skeep it unitentionally like me.
Quite basic in gameplay but still a fun and whimsical experience! Great job guys!
Some feedback:
Given how often I clicked each plant, the kissing sound effect got annoying very fast. It would have been nice if variations of the kissing sound effect were selected randomly and played. It would have probably been interesting if mid-way through the game, more than one new plant were introduced.
Also, the cutscene where the protag and plant kiss was a little confusing, because one could still click on the plants at get the kissing sound effect. This made me think the plants were still dying in the background, though careful observation revealed time pauses during these moments. I feel these pauses could have been better communicated visually and interactively, e.g. by plopping a full screen background like the ending, and preventing interactivity with prior plants.
Great job!
The graphic style, the music, the feedback sounds are very nice !
Overall, very good work on your game !

But still good job
Yeah.. Let's say that the reason I am not asking you out is this fetish of yours.
I'd love to see a longer version of this game, perhaps with some more plant varieties and something to spice up the gameplay. I can't get enough of the strange, scary yet cute art style. Merci pour le jeu!
The hand-drawn looking art style really set the mood.
Thanks for rating my game!
good music and the art style is nice.
...but...I think my stomach is turning after the end...
So this was... different :D Definitely one of the weirder Jam games I've seen. Nice, mildly creepy art.
Gameplay was simple but fitting to the theme, I guess.

It is a very nice jam job!
One thing I noticed is that the plant on the right in the second row can be a bit hard to target when it's tiny (as so much of it is hidden behind the plant in the front. It's completely fine when it grows up though.
