I think this is my 10th game!
So many pumpkins but they aren't lucky enough to have chain reaction...
It was fun even with the audio stuttering while playing HTML version of it, the background and its music sure give me a relax vibe. Although I can't zooming in and out the camera, thus it's hard to see the particular tile preview I want to place.
Seems like those goats are happy when there are some hay tiles connected with each other. They will progressively eat the next one when the turn "ends". :D
thanks for playing! Yeah, good feedback about the camera zoom. I think I’ll add that as a new feature. I hope you enjoyed!
It was at this moment, that I knew playing the browser version may have been the wrong choice. xD Really fun little game once you figure out how it works! It's got a really clean look. I like that the pumpkin vines clearly indicate the proceeding pumpkin. The map edge seemed to be a bit off towards the back of the map, I noticed.
All in all, kept me occupied longer than what may be considered reasonable. ^^
(EDIT: The point counter kind of gave out on me a few cycles back. I'll never know my score lol T-T)
Haha I know. The performance degrades on this version of the game. And believe it or not, it’s because of the scoring on the UI. I have a fix for it, but couldn’t change it for the jam submission. I’m happy you played it for so long still D4yz! If you want to play the patched version with less bugs, I’ll be posting it right after the jam voting period ends.
Hey! I saw the thumbnail, saw it was an Urodela game and was very happy! I really liked playing the game. I'm not sure what a normal score is but I got 1909... I think for me personally the board is a bit too large, I also had no indication on when the game would end, or at all... And some mechanics seemed unexplained, like the goat, or the pumpkin growth (except for scoring).
Making the board smaller would make it easier to iterate over a solution, get to that high score quicker, and focus on trying new tactics. If you make a "Quick Place" mode with a smaller grid, like 6x6 instead of 10x10, I'd love to try that out :D
Willow! Hello! I have bad news to tell you… I didn’t use the Godot icon this time :(.
Your feedback is really spot on. All of these have been on my mind and I think I need to change them. The board size is one of them, the game gets exhausting because of it too. I think as for mechanics instructions and indications, I either need to add more to the tutorial text or add much more indicators in game. Thank you for playing!
