72 Hours and a the one extra after. For Ludum Dare 46

IMy focus was on getting the humor, art, and play to feel cohesive and a bit surreal. Let me know if I hit the marks!
Enjoy.

Concept: Keep the lovelorn Verne alive thru his emotional turmoil. Verne is an idiot and WILL DIE without your love.

Play as Fern, the love fern, and do everything you can to KEEP VERNE ALIVE.

Idea Proof:
Let's see how far I can get with this...
