Well, I'm already stuck on the first room. All I know is that I can die to the spikes, for whatever that's worth.

Really good game!

ohohohohoho, devious. impaling myself on my many children and watering the earth with my blood is a very compelling game mechanic. final plant has me stumped >:P
Fun game!
Nice! Nice and tough but ultimately solveable.

This is probably my favorite of these games so far!
So much puzzle in such a small space. Loved it!
Excellent! I really enjoyed the progression of learning more and more tricks, in the same one-screen world. Very cute!
