Haha, one of the funniest game I've played this Jam! Great job

Very solid game! I loved it a lot! I ended up finding a cool trick with the "dont look north" decree where I could call Biscuit and have her push me upwards without looking north. IDK if it was intentional or not but it was really cool!

cute, creative and all, kinda softlocked myself a couple times lol, is there a way from that without resetting or something

This game was challenging in the right ways. I like how I was pushed to change my approach to the objective with each day. The visuals are great, your use of sound is just right, and the quirkiness just works.

I'm adding this to my collection!

Biscuit is so cute!! I loved the visuals, and both sound and music fits the game very well. The gameplay was also fun even tho I agree with the person who said it can feel slow pased once you start over.

I liked the animated tutorial. The art and atmosphere are great, the game loop is very good, it's fun to play, thank you

Great art and animations, very atmospheric. It was a bit slow paced for me (especially once you start over), but that's completely alright for such cozy and relaxing game. King's comments are quite cool too

I love the visuals and audio, and the gameplay is relatively fun and relaxing, the entire game feels very polished.
Btw the web performance is awful and Im missing a fullscreen button, you still have till like 14 hours to maybe export a native Windows/Linux build (my Godot' game performance is also pretty bad in the web and in my game you need timing so thats even worse lol)

The transitions and the polish are very smooth nice job, the gameplay is also nice with the new rule each time.
Very good job.
Also I can't make it work with the Itch launcher I needed to open it on the web.

If you get a chance we are looking for feedbacks on our game, a small city builder game

Hi! The biscuit is adorable, and the pixel art is great! The shadows though made it look like everything is floating :)

Also fun concept with the nasty king!

Very charming game and cool to play! I'm a bit confuse with implementing the theme here but overall welldone

I thought this was pretty good. The gameplay was also  pretty fun. I think my only complaints are that there isn't enough active risking involved, and maybe a little more variety in the tasks you have to do. Overall very fun though.

Decent. I especially like the character's appearance and animation. The gameplay isn't engaging for me, but I like the idea of the decrees. And I know that I would appreciate farming mechanics. ^^

I appreciate your feedback! And I agree, the decree system is fun but it would work better as the supporting system in a world where there is more to do.

Great visuals and a very interesting game loop. The building difficulty is a fun implementation, and I laugh every time I have to pick up my cow and drag her to the field myself

Great idea and fun interpretation of the theme. Gameplay was unknown to me and felt good. Shadows made some of the movement feel a bit floaty.

Overall a really good submission.
