Very entertaining and challenging!

Loved the whole thing, especially the music!

A lot of fun. Really like the feel of the kickback when you fire the gun, feels great to play.

really fun, love the stem trail and the screen shake.

Loved the style!

Wasn't sure what to do. There was no score or a way to lose. Got lots of green things. Good sound.

Thanks for including a key to tone down the flashing lights! I didn't expect a gun to be climbing a vine, so points for creativity. It didn't seem to be possible to lose or win as far as I could tell.

Title is a pun. 8/8 m8
Seriously though, this is super creative and well put together. Good job!

Great audio on this one. I liked the gun recoil movement mechanic. This could have almost hit the "two button" theme if you had reduced the arrow key into into one "change direction" button.

This is a two button game- you can only hit two buttons!

Tons of fun, although I didn't understand how the level progression worked until the third level. (Other players: the more green things you collect, the bigger the portal gets. As you get hit the portal gets smaller. Once the portal is full, you move on to the next level.)

As I said in the IRC, the screen flash is awesome. Felt great to shoot, and the escalating music made the game extra exciting. Controls were very interesting and fun to use. Good job!

Very nice feedback on this game! Though it seems I cannot die?

I very much enjoyed the presentation on this one.

A clever and cute little package. The way the next level portal scales with your progress is pretty next level in itself. Also good thinking for including dampeners for the effects, they get pretty hard on the eyes after a while.

...But really, space bar and right arrow?

Cool idea, I had a hard time figuring out what to do, but the audio was great, and it felt good

Really enjoyed the minimalist feel of the game. Addicting.

I loved this game and how well everything works together. I wish the game was complete (I couldn't lose).

Anyway, great job!

Pretty much a perfect LD game. Enjoyed the hell out of it. It helps that I myself am a fan of screenshake.

Really neat, fun game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/HyS0oGo3sGY

By far one of my favorites. Really good feel, sound and music sounded appropriate. Nice work!

LOVED IT! 10/10 would grow a gun plant again

Great fun. Very nice execution. A lot of great game feel to give the game that extra punch when firing.

Also, puns. Puns everywhere.

Wonderful game! Puns are in your DNA. You have an awesome handle of game feel. Every blip and shot felt just right and powerful. When I realized how the mechanic work I thought it was hilarious. Great way of dealing with the two button limitation. I love this! Great job!

wow, this is totally great! reload and switch directions against shoot and step back is a really good balance. all the effects (visual and sound) were great and chunky. i really appreciate the no fail for a jam game like this. plant with a gun is also the first thing I thought was funny this ludum dare

I honestly didn't understand what I was doing at first lol. But I started enjoying it after a good bit. Nicely done!

Great name, great game.

well, this is a very funny game!

Combination of gun and growing plant is amazing) had fun while playing!

Addictive!
Fun and simple. Good job :)

Great fun! Looks and sounds awesome! I think the difficulty grows (heh) too fast and you kinda get stuck at that one level where it's just going too fast for you but that might just be me not being very good at the game. Cool concept anyway and nice execution!

REAALLY NICE DONE ! :D :D

Great feel and polish! Was really challenging until I realized I couldn't die, which was a bit of a letdown. Was it intentional?

Yeah, I didn't want players to have to start over and over because they didn't have fast enough reaction times. I'm going to expand on it, with the main mode having a life bar.

wow that was fun, nice action packed experience with great controls, i understand the choice for not taking damage, but getting hurt and healing via powerups / lives would give the game more depth i think..great experience nottheless

Well done! small elegant game, very fun.

Not sure if there's a lose condition though.

I like the minimalistic style and gameplay! Cool one! And plant with a gun - quite psychedelic ^_^

Innovation is the word.

Nice graphics, great idea. The music is good. Got a little too difficult for me with the vastly increased speed after 2 or 3 'screens'. The only real downside I'd say is the 'reload' sound which can become kind of grating after a while..

Great work!

Does the vine ever get to space?

The music's tempo increased when I got to the purple sky? Nice addition!

Thanks! There's actually three separate version of the song that kick in depending on how far you are.

I'm so bad with that games. But here's a challenging one, well done !

Music was great. Animations made the gameplay really fun. I could have kept playing this for hours if there was a clear way to win or lose.

The whole get set back when hit mechanic was a bit too unclear.

Hitting targets and getting hit as well (explody green things instead of red bullet was just a little too late of a feedback and the sprite change before was too subtle).

Fun and creative idea. Good job!

Incredible entry. A bit short, but what is there is awesome. Would love to see more of this on a mobile app!

Pretty addictive, though as it seemed I can't lose, you can basically just spam the two buttons and enjoy the crazy :)

really fun, creative and challenging game

Good game, very adictive =) Game mechanic pretty interesting, bit a bit boring after 5 minutes of playing.

Very challenging & on-theme game. Excellent screen shake and general feel.

One of my favorite entries so far. Definitely 5 star innovation and theme. It's just a perfect concept, love it with the theme. Really enjoyed the music and graphics too. Really fun. Could definitely see this as a mobile game. Well done! Just awesome. c:

Very fun game! I love it!

cool idea and great music!

Got pretty hard by the third area, but was able to get the hang of things. Very interesting take on the themes - excellent execution of both! Very fun game.

It took me forever to understand the controls, and now that I do understand them, I hate them :(

Stupidly fun :) Great audio atmosphere. Had some difficulties to read some graphics (friends or foes?). Nice mechanics, right on the theme!

Very nice! Took me a second to understand how to progress. At first I didn't realise that timing my shots carefully would actually destroy the guns :D
Then I liked the idea that there is no real 'game over', just an end to your combo / green thing / whatever.

Amazing entry. We'd love to play it on mobile. Just missing a losing condition, but game is great. Congrats on it!

Very solid entry in overall, with inventive ideas and addictive gameplay great job !
