A downloadable game

Game made for the March 2024 Game Zanga Gamejam.


You play as a girl named Yuuka trying to protect a growing tree from mischievous fairies that want to hurt the tree. You must shoot either shoot them yourself or plant flowers that can shoot bullets at them to protect your tree.

How to play:

Z/Right Click to shoot

WASD/Arrow keys to move

Enemies will drop coins that slowly disappear, so collect them before they do.

If Yuuka loses all her lives, you won't lose the game, but she will get stunned for a while.

The game ends after all enemies in the level are dead or the tree loses all its life.

After Every level, you'll be able to spend your money on flowers that you can plant to protect the tree. Sometimes, you'll also get to give an upgrade to yuuka herself.

Endless Mode:

Enemies will continuously spawn without end, that means you have to plant your flowers on the fly. Press F to open or close the menu to plant the flowers. And try to survive for as long as you can.

Planned Features:

-More levels with more maps

-more variety of enemies

-expand endless mode a little.

This was super short, yet equally as fun little fangame. I'm certainly looking forward to an endless mode, if money gain'd be just as quick as it is now, I can only imagine how quickly one could grow a garden to rival Yuuka's Sunflower Garden.   One thing, I think a trowel (or similar item) could be a worthwhile implementation. I feel like removing or rotating flowers as the map changes and grows could make it a good feature.

The post jam update will have that feature. Be assured.
