Plants vs Bugs

A game inspired by Plants vs Zombies and Bloons TD, made for Game/Music Jam '22!

Humans have outgrown the current capacity to make food. In order to reduce the rising demand, they have turned toward chemical means for mass production. During this process, a species of lilies have mutated into an all-in-one, medicinal plant. With the discovery of “Life Lilies”, everyone started growing this miracle crop.

However, the lilies weren’t the only thing that was mutated. A species of parasitic bugs, that were originally a minor nuisance to crop farmers, came in contact with the chemicals and transformed into giant, terrifying, parasitic bugs. People now have to fend for themselves. They must grow physically and mentally to cope with surviving in this new world. The only thing keeping them alive were the Life Lilies.

You play as a Life Lily farmer, an agricultural profession known for its high mortality rate, and your job is to cultivate Life Lilies to survive in this harsh world. During the day, you prepare your plot of land by planting genetically modified seeds, that are sold from a mysterious trader, to increase your defenses. When nighttime falls, you must keep your lilies safe against the parasitic bugs. To win, you must defeat the Boss Bug on Night 6.
