cool game, got 426, it felt like minesweeper but a bit more fun and active maybe? Not sure if it was intentional or not but it seems like the easiest way to play is to intentionally let carrot bombs explode in one side of the map or corners so you have less of a area where they can spawn.

At last, a proper old-school arcade game - I was getting tired of all the turn-based farming games where we have to know the back-story and motivation of the farmer and his estranged daughter.

Very much enjoyed it. Went in cold without reading instructions was easy to work out what's going on.

I loved this game! I harvested 429 carrots. It was super fun and really engaging. I kinda wish there was some music, but the game is great even without it

Would have loved arrow keys for movement in this game as well alongside WASD, but I quite liked this game, easy to get into the flow of going for the angry exploding carrots while trying to stay alive :)
