quick game, but somehow very tedious.
Took a bit to figure out that i needed the scrool wheen (very unintuitive)
a lot of the game is just waiting, and on the third year the dificulty takes a turn and feels very weird
the other games from sokpop are amazing, but this aint it

I would go for a neutral rating on this one, but I did kind of enjoy my time with it so I'll give it a pass :)!
This very clearly is one of Sokpop's earier games; it's a fun concept, but it just hasn't been fleshed out enough. That combined with no tutorial or controls overview, very unclear (probably awkwardly translated) instructions and some goals being too easy to obtain, make this game feel a bit unbalanced and unfinished.
It's a neat little toy to fiddle with for about an hour though!

Great short game, tons of fun to play. Though you really feel the lack of a settings/pause menu after playing it for a while and getting to discover the controls can be both annoying and rewarding at different times.

Lacks instructions, and is pretty slow and boring once you do figure some things out.
Heliopedia by the same devs has a similar theme but is much better.

A minigame that`s not aimless and brainless and offers an authentic science component with delightful artwork. Also it's nice to see that I am actually capable of keeping plants alife. At least in this game.

The stress of being back in school combined with the stress of creating new life and accidentally killing it.

What I could play more of the game, I did like. It made you figure out exactly what you needed to achieve goals. Unfortunately, it's broken in the second chapter so I couldn't get very far. They are aware of it, so they may fix it some day! Until then, I can't recommend it.

The game could really use a tutorial, or at least some kind of list of controls, but once you get a hang of this, it's pretty fun!
Especially when you have a bunch of backseat gamers yelling at you "HYDROGEN! HYDROGEN!"

Desperately in need of instructions and/or defined controls. No instructions anywhere on how to do anything with this game (it's the scroll wheel on the mouse. If you don't have one, tough.). Very frustrating.
