A tiny game made in GB Studio in 3 days.

Lots of thanks to GB Studio discord user: LazyDev for SO much scripting help.

The color palette used is BLUSH GB, by Lospec user Fro/Its-fro

I don’t understand how to play. Need some instructions 

You have to water the "plants" until they grow and thank you. After they disappear, more will come up but you need to make sure you don't let them sit for too long or they'll regress. If that happens and you let either one regress too much/too long, you lose.

As for controls, directional buttons need to be pressed each time you move and the a button is for watering. You go up to the water to refill your watering can, which will have the number of times left before you need to refill up on the screen as a counter.

If you need anymore help just let me know. :)

I always die before I can even do anything. I don’t see any plants

It's the things that are coming up from those squares in the ground. You have to act fast, even in the beginning, in order to stay in the game.

I know it's a bit tough, but I didn't figure out how to make the timer go faster or slower depending on anything, so it's 2 seconds before game over at the beginning.

I think you need to use global variables to set how far you are in the game and use that to set waits for your timers

Or create an intro scene where the player can do the thing but without the time limit

that might actually be a good idea. :)
