You've got to get as many points as possible for the contest, so grow some monsters! 

The game will probably stutter the first time you see a new particle effect or shader, but after that it should work fine.

Tips:

  • Check the book to see how to grow each creature, and see all of their stats as well.
  • The blue bar in the top-right of the screen is your time limit.
  • There is a second key.
  • I realize this part is not obvious at all if you didn't make the game: If you messed up a plant by not watering it with anything, you can use the watering can on it as it dies to get the green liquid.

Controls:

WASD / Arrow Keys = Movement

Z / Space / Enter / Left Click = Interact

X / Ctrl / Right Click = Cancel

Escape / Tab / C = Pause
