I love the aesthetic and the sounds, it’s all very well done. Planting and growing things is such a relaxing experience, and the animations are smooth enough to keep the gameplay moving fast.
Aaah thank you for playing! I'm a very aesthetics driven developer, so I'm glad you noticed!
This was well put together! All the art looked great. I liked the music, but I wish it had looped longer in the game. One suggestion I would make would be to add an indicator to show where you're aiming the water/planting the seeds. I couldn't always tell, and the range seemed to vary, but I could never tell by how much. I also couldn't gather rocks, but that seems like known bug.
Nice work!
Thank you for playing! All the things you pointed out are thing we'll be fixing in the full release! As for the background music, I added that 5 mins before the jam ended, so I overlooked some stuff! Did you make it all the way to Dynamite Shrimp?
I got my bar to reach 100, and I talked to the blue guy. I don't think that was Dynamite Shrimp level, though
You were able to go through the gate? That's what the end is for now.
I like games where you place seeds, water them, and grow things while freely moving the player, so this one caught my interest. The game isn’t fully polished yet, but it’s playable and clearly functional. Buying items from NPCs works well, and cutting/collecting resources feels satisfying.
I wasn’t able to collect stone into the inventory, which felt like a small bug, but overall the systems are there and working. The characters are cute, the visuals are nice (as shown), and the audio is okay, even if it didn’t stand out much for me.
Overall, this feels like a solid base with charm. With a bit more polish and small fixes, it could become a really enjoyable experience.
Thank you for playing! This was actually my first ever game that I've finished, and I do plan on polishing this once the jam is over! The rock issue is a bug yes, and you were supposed to be able to talk to the sharks gaurding the gate. And the tutorial isnt quite clear enough, but I'll definitely revisit those areas!
Pretty cool game, I love the art! I think I had a bug though where the rocks didn't drop anything. Not sure if that's a progression thing where they only drop later though. I also kind of wish there was a tutorial or something, even just in the description of the game page. Really neat game though, good job!
I was kinda rushing at the end and broke both the berries from bein able to gwt watered and th rocks from dropping anything, amd the tutorial should be the first button on the main menu, just the hit the frog saying HEY with your fork, and he'll show you the basics!
I am also planning to continue this outside of the jam!
Haha, I missed that completely somehow. I managed without it but I probably should have played the tutorial first.
Thank you for allowing me to do the art for this game! It's great
Of course! :D
