Lila's Garden by sliphtrex
This is The "Fruit" of my labor. I'm uploading this version just in case I don't have time to make changes before the deadline. In Lila's Garden you play as Lila and her friends. Your goal is to collect as many berries as you can by sneaking up on them before they go bad and pressing the space bar. Seems easy enough, but not all characters move how you would expect and only characters with the right shirt can collect each colored berry.
Controls: - Arrow keys/W,A,S,D: move your characters - space: collect berries
UPDATE: - The game fits the screen now. Not tiny no more. - Also I added my name to the title card because... :sweat_smile:. - The web link should take you right to the game now instead of the download page.
I'm new to GameJolt and didn't bother to test the HTML build in editor before uploading. My bad. Rookie mistake.
Hopefully I can fix the menu music that's currently not playing until after the game ends, and maybe get some menu art in too. After that maybe difficulty tuning too, but that's a stretch.

On the technical side, there were a few bugs and rough edges that I think could be ironed out if there was a follow-up version. Specifically:
- The red text is hard to see
- The timer (seconds) should be padded with 0s (eg: 2:05, not 2:5)
- Movement being timer-based felt a bit awkward, especially when I was trying to go for high scores
- The music ended a bit before the level timer
The funky movement of multiple characters isn't something I've seen in a LD before and led me to have to think on my feet basically the whole time :smile:
