bonsai life

Dear all, this is our first participation in the Ludum Dare JAM!

Our game is called bonsai life, where you are a small plant. Your goal is to grow as much as possible and avoid the enemies.

Controls:
* you can turn the plant by dragging across the screen, using mouse or touch on mobile
* collect nutrients and grow
* touching enemies will cause you to lose parts of the plant
* if the enemies touch the stem, you will lose precious time

Nice concept, easy to take in hands, I like it :)

The game was interesting but it seemed too random I didn't really feel like anything I was doing was affecting the game. Also when I played it a second time I got one seed then instantly got obliterated by spike balls.

This game is one that I've played that I could easily see myself playing for hours. I got quite addicted to the growing mechanic and really enjoyed growing as much as I could. I wish there was a more directed set of instructions in game when it comes to the fighting round - I did find myself confused as to what I should do (but that didn't take away from the fun of it). You all should be proud of this, its such an addicting and unique thing to come up with in such short time! :)
