Really fun concept! I liked the mix of abilities and how smooth everything felt. The visual style fit well too. Great job overall!
Good game and good concept, it was fun to rush and try to plant before the gigant gets to hungry, but at the end when I already have the poisoned crops it took a lot of time for the gigant to eat again, but it was fun and I liked the concept!
Nice game, fun to play. The mechanics work well and the pixel art looks good. Good job!
The giant wandering around, making threatening noises gave the game a greater urgency than there actually was. There's plenty of time to work through the seed tech tree and get the right 'meal' to survive. :)
I like the presentation and the concept. It was a little awkward to hoe the fields, I think because I was panicking about imminently being eaten. I appreciated the button to reset tool locations, since I had a habit of accidentally picking up harvested crops while still holding onto the axe.
Great Game enjoyed it a lot!
I wanted to plant just by holding the mouse click and dragging on the ground, it could be ctrl+click. It makes the game flow better, cool game man!
Nice mechanics here. I did it but wow I haven't clicked this much since Diablo 1 :) Click and drag would be a great addition.
Nice and relaxing though, I'm glad you gave the player a lot of leeway on how quickly they figure out the game. I'm tempted to stick around to see what happens if the giant gets too hungry though!
Good work!
Nice and cozy farming game with different mechanics that work together quite nice. Good job!
That was a neat idea, farm and feed a giant visitor.
I encountered a bug where I stacked crops with my axe, but I still had a great time playing it
I really liked the variety of crops, I think the different farming mechanics mesh well together with the 3 kinds of crop!
Thank you for playing!
Originally I wanted the game to be a how long could you survive kinda game, but by adding the poisoned wheat it gave the game more of goal.
Glad you liked the crop variety!
cool cosy game. I completed it - wasnt really sure why he died, I think I fed him some bad berries lol. very chill and looks great. had a few issues with tools but the reset button fixes it fine. well done
Thank you for playing!
Really glad I managed to add the reset button at the end of the jam, it guess it really did come in handy.
Pretty fun. like others I didn't understand how to feed the giant. Left it on the plate but didn't realize it needed to stay there for a while. I also wasn't able to pick up or place the $1000 seeds.
Thank you for playing!
Yeah I'll admit I it was kinda confusing on how to feed the giant but I'm glad the plate helped you figure out the first step.
The item interactions are still a bit buggy so if you experience problems like that just try clicking the reset tools button and/or right clicking and left clicking until it fixes it self.
An interesting game. I couldn't plant anything other than wheat; when I bought the second seeds, it wouldn't let me plant them.
Something I would add would be to be able to grow and do everything by holding down the click button without having to repeatedly press it. I would also add some instructions.
On the other hand, if you water the same plant twice, it's like drying it out.
I liked the idea! Keep it up :)
Thank you for playing!
My bad about the seeds, I didn't realize they couldn't be planted until you pointed it out, thanks a lot for that. A whole portion of the game would've been unavailable and technically you wouldn't be able to beat the game.
I've also fixed the watering mechanic so plants can only be watered once now.
Thank you for the feedback!
Graphics and pixel art were great! I struggled to figure out what to do, I harvested the wheat and put it on the plate but I wasn't sure how to make him eat it.
Thank you for playing!
The giant only eats when the hunger bar reaches a certain part, which is marked by a line, I left it out of the game description earlier my bad.

Nice! The farming was pretty cozy! Only issue I encountered was the axe getting stuck to some wheat.
Thank you for playing!
There’s actually a reset tool button at the bottom right of the screen that can help with tools getting stuck, I didn’t add it to the controls earlier my bad.
