As a Chinese person, there are a lot of hilarious references to Chinese pop culture in the game. Like with the nba zombies and the weird melonpult spikeweed fusion, it’s a reference to Cai Xukun, who is a singer that became a meme due to his audition video to an idol survival programme, where he sang, danced, rapped and played basketball at the same time. The plant thing has chicken hands to reference the song he used, “只因你太美” (because you’re too beautiful),which people decided sounds like “鸡你太美”,literally translating to “ chicken you’re too beautiful”, hence the chicken
Why does this look like an unironically good idea, like it's a bit scuffed but this could be genuinely good lmao, the unhinged names make it even better "IRON ARMOR IS EXTREMELY STRONG"
these are lowkey my favorite type of mobile games honestly. They're bootlegs at the surface but have something going on under there that is pretty unique it's like early on they smoked something instead of make a regular knockoff
What baffles me is how much effort went into this clear knockoff. With all the variations, it has more plant types than PvZ 1 - about as many as PvZ 2 without the Premium content. And there's even some unique ideas, like the lvl 3 Kernelpult creating a temporary wall.
the merge mechanic is actually interesting on this formula i'd genuinely like to see a less-bootleg version of this
this feels like Battlecats. you start with actual cat variants and end up with anime women
That official translation feels like one of those mods where someone runs the dialogue through Google Translate a hundred times
Update on the game: 1. it had 5 stars review 2. 50k people download it 3. new update coming soon 4. this is in the game leaderboard number 211 5.this game is going viral 6.many big YouTuber try this game
17:39 Out of all things, I could never have anticipated bulkachu.
I think the reason levels end too early is because it only checks if the last zombie to spawn in the level is dead or not. not if all zombies are dead.
35:51 The literal translation for "explosive rice grain" is 爆米花 which means popcorn in Chinese. That's pretty genius.
If anyone is interested, the basketball holding zombies at 6:28 are a reference to a popular chinese meme "ji ni tai mei" where a pop star Cai Xukun dribbled a basketball before breaking into a dance to the song Ji Ni Tai Mei ("because you are beautiful") which earned mockery both for his weird dance, and because the way he pronounces "ji" makes it sound like he is saying the chinese word for chicken (making it sound like "chicken you are so beautiful")
if this game gets an update, you are getting forced by us to make another vid on it
Shoutout to the Ashe, Jinx, and Lissandra plant
13:44 Watermelon making a fried chicken basketball fusion is top tier creativity
42:01 "IRON ARMOR IS EXTREMELY STRONG" He isn't prepared for Diamond Armor...
I downloaded the game, and apparently the lore reason for why the coneheads are stronger than the imps is not because the cones, but instead they have "thicker blood" 💀 i might update this later if i find anything else and or gets popular
for those who want to know, the jinx ice cream...woman is called Explosive $ L U T
