Ah! And you were so close, too! Apologies, it is not made super clear in the hint that the second plant needs to be fed as well (something I should maybe update post-jam). Thank you so much for playing. I hope you had some fun with it! :)
Fun game, though I can't for the life of me figure out how to get through the second "feed" level. I gave the cooked fruit to the plant and then there doesn't seem to be anything else I can do!
I'm glad you liked it :)
If you decide to give it a second shot, that level has two plants to feed... But it's easy to accidentally burn the first one. That's likely where you got stuck. (In hind sight, that level may be a touch too tricky!)
Thank you so much for taking the time to play!
Thanks for the tip! I did eventually get it. The timing of releasing the two sets of clouds is pretty precise, but not too tricky once you know what you're doing.
Ah, I'm glad to hear you got it!
Thank you! Low resolution was a challenge here, but I think it gave the visuals more charm
