Love the artstyle, couldn't really figure out how to play - I didn't seem to be able to plant anything, one carrot I managed to grow just disappeared ;c
Hey! Thank you so much for trying it out!! Really means a lot!
I agree that the gameplay is not that intuitive but sadly I was on a big time crunch and didn't find the time to make a correct tutorial thing... I will definitely take that in consideration if I continue working on that, which can probably be the case.
Thank you so much again for the feedback!!
Loved the game! Only thing I wished is that you could see the number of seeds you have while playing (without needing to click escape). Maybe at the top? but this is personal preference. Really enjoyed playing it.
Tysm for playing and for the feedback! The seeds could definitely be on the screen directly, though I planned to continue this after the jam, so having multiple types of crops would probably take a lot of space on the screen. I could probably have done that just for the jam though... Thanks again for feedback!
Realy cool game ! I don't know who is this TheCarotte but he is the god of game dev !! I love the mechanics, they remind me an old game i have played when i was a kid. And the design, love it !
Haha thank you so much for playing!
Very cool! Reminded me a lot of an overcooked style multiplayer game, especially where you can only have one tool out at a time. I got confused at first and my carrots died. It was only after checking the pause menu did I realize what was really going on.
I could definitely see more types of crops and more tools. Thank you for making this!
Thank you for the review! Yeah you definitely have to do some trial and error to figure out what happens, but sadly I didn't have much time to make a little tutorial part. I was planning on adding more crops but didn't find the time for that either.
Thanks again for playing and for the review!
Now that I read this after playing, I agree. It could be a really fun multiplayer game. Each having one task and having to get in sync to manage the farm. I would love to play that.
Very fun! I can easily see this turned into a more fleshed out game with levels and timer mechanic, so I guess like an RTS. I would say this makes for a good level 3, felt a little confusing to jump into this not knowing how it works and then I kill all my carrots lol.
Also I think the number of carrots you have and the Sell button should be on the top right of the HUD instead of in the pause menu. Overall great game though!
Hey! Thank you so much for the feedback I really appreciate that!
I'll definitely try to improve that game afterwards. It's true that for some things I was in a time crunch and didn't really think too much about it, especially the sell button.
Thanks again for playing and for the feedback!!
