it's pretty fun and there are quite some levels I just feel like there could have been more interesting obstacles (Moving enemies? teleportation?)

still I had a lot of fun playing the game!

The whole art style and presentation is wonderful! Gameplay-wise, I would have liked to be able to see my cursor, and also maybe move the camera? I found myself making a lot of shots blindly off-screen, or by just throwing a hundred seeds at a moving platform until one got me where I wanted by chance. Also some sound effects would have been appreciated. I did have a lot of fun though - the concept is interesting, and you have explored it well. I hope the new flower village grows and prospers!

Reminds me about angry birds... maybe the dots that show where your going? Overall a really fun and addicting game! Nice job!

Loved the game. Sometimes the seed would get trapped in the rocks and shoot wildly in a direction. Beyond that seemed really well done.

Very interesting mechanics! I really liked the bouncy stone blocks and that you calculate the seed fly path in advance.

Aah, this game is zen :) played it until I got the game to crash, probably because accidentally clicked outside the game on my two display setup

++ Good concept focusing on a single mechanic. Art was bright and music fit well.

-- Would have been nice to have the camera move along with the ball, or be able to scroll the camera over to see the problem. Few bouncing bugs with the ball going into blocks

Cool levels! The mechanics was implemented pretty well, but Sometimes we couldn't see where we should go!

A fun well-scoped game. Was fun seeing what new twist you'd put on the format with each level. Great work

Very enjoyable game! Just as I was getting comfy you chuck moving platforms in! 😂 When you make a multi bounce shot it's very satisfying. The combination of moving platforms and the bouncing made for some interesting level design! I'd play a bigger game with more block types and stuff 😁 But this was perfectly scoped for a LD game so kudos!

Very well done! Also it's Monogame so ++ 😉

Cute little game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 46 compilation video series, if you want to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/U94ABx1ev3Y
