Cool idea for a management sim. While these types of games aren't for me, I do have to commend you for the end result. It looks really nice. The tutorial was very helpful. I would suggest giving a clearer indication when you gain a resource though. I didn't see that at first.

Developer(+1)

thank you so much :) completely agree about a resource indicator, was on my to do list but ran out of time!

Really neat idea! As a pikmin fan i love these kind of games! really cool graphic and smooth animations, loved the different seasons with different things, happening, i swear that i would love a game like this on my phone ehehhe Great entry! :D

I think I could write an essay on why this is a showcase of brilliant game design. 

The artstyle is simple yet beautiful thanks to that wonderful color palette, the sounds are just right and make any action feel very satisfying, the waay you made a natural gameplay loop with just a few mechanics tied to the seasons is genius and the battles are well balanced and the fact that you NEED both builders and fighters makes them high-stakes and interesting.

Brilliant game.

This is a really good game. Art is cute and the game play is well balanced. Survived 4 years.

thank you! appreciate it

I survived for 3 years!:D The game is cute. I think the beginning felt a bit slow when it came to collecting items, but I still enjoyed playing.

Cool game! Feels like the start of a StarCraft match or something. Would love to see the progression ramp up a little faster at the start, but the sound effects and animations keep it interesting. Really nice jam submission!

Heeey, survived for 3 days cause I can't be a tribe leader EVER.

I got to understan better the cycle of activities a bit too late and got invaded by one big guy in a helmet, I think their name was Roger or something, I will find him and get revenge!

Nice thinking about each thing role in different year , i really like the concept much 

Submitted(+1)

Noo, I survived for 3 years until this buff guy came along and ruined it all! Spent a good 30 minutes on the game, very polished and feels good playing! Would be cool if there was a mini health bar or something to indicate the enemies health. Overall, super good game, Great work! :D

Developer

thank you so much! :)

Nice work, this is very impressive for a jam timeline in my opinion. The game is definitely hard, but I think given how little time we had to playtest you did a good job balancing. There are a lot of small details here that just make the game more fun to play. I think you did a great job managing your time.

Developer

thanks for checking it out! and thank you for your kind words

Very cozy and nice game. The difficulty curve is way too high tho, I died unfortunately and restarting a run is a bit frustrating if you already invested a lot of time. I appreciate that the game has instantly a volume slider and that it does not blast my ears. Very good sfx design and overall the gameplay loop is quite simple but fun. What was not that intuitive is how I could deselect a crop again, I accidentially selected it and planted one crop at the very bottom of my tile in the early years which was quite annoying.

I wish there was some music next to the ambience. And with the tutorial I feel like time should not progress while you are reading. The first time i took my time and it well, literally cost me a lot of ingame time already. So I would freeze time there for sure.

Good game.

Developer(+2)

thanks for the feedback, and im glad you enjoyed it overall, I would have loved to add some music if time had allowed :)

Submitted(+2)

Ah no worries. There are so many ifs and whens, its still a great game, especially for a jam. I looked at it with that in mind. The feedback is just overall my thoughts, hope it might help you improve your future games or to work out some kinks of this game if you wanna update it a bit after the jam.

Developer(+1)

appreciate it :)

That’s a 10/10 game. I spent more time playing it that I’d like to admit xD

The enemies are a bit too strong, but it makes the gameplay hard and fun. You send all of your guys to the battle, repair and gathering wood for the repair and manage to beat the wave with like 1 wall durability to spare

The sounds design is great, the art palette and style is amazing, the details are really nice(the trees! the different tools! the stages of growth for crops!) the whole game looks like a nicely done indie game. Huge well done to the author, will probably play it even more, it’s super addictive

Developer(+1)

thank you so much! I really appreciate it and im glad you enjoyed it

very cool managment game, the artstyle is also pretty neat, feels nice to play. great entry overall, great job

Developer(+1)

thank you, appreciate it :)

I really like it! I feel like management games are quite tough to pull off in a jam, but this is very well crafted and fun! The art is cute and the progression/balance works quite well, great work!

Developer(+1)

thanks so much for playing !

Super complete game for a 96h-hour jam, and quite fun to play. One thing I would have liked is a health-bar on the enemies, so I know wether my defenders will kill them in time or the wall will break first.

Developer(+1)

thank you so much for checking it out :)

this was very satisfying and fun to play

Not a fan of managing game, but the wheel of season it's an interesting gimmick. I think this is a concept that could be developed further.

Developer(+1)

thank you so much, im glad you enjoyed :)
