Nice music and SFX. Throwing pumpkins at crows was quite amusing.
I felt a little bit overwhelmed by the amount of stuff to click in the beginning, but got to level 5 once I figured everything out.
Nice and well polished. I particularly like the end credits, smart and elegant. You should implement different map designs for the seven levels and so the strategy would be more different to succeed.
Cool game! I like the way you have to stop the corruption from growing, kept me playing for a while. I wish there was a more intuitive way to scroll the map with just the mouse though
Glad you enjoyed it
Controls have been a recurrent topic, this is a good learning experience for me
Thanks for playing!
Fun game! I really liked the look of the isometric tile map. Shortcut buttons and 8 direction movement buttons were a nice addition.
thanks for playing ☺️
Hey, good game! I had a little trouble understanding that I need to click on the tile first and then on the option, but you can edit the page and add this instruction there, for anyone playing later (You just can't change the game during the voting period). Anyway, very fun, congratulations!
I added that to the game description, thanks for the feedback 😄
The game works great and the sound design is nice.
I'm not sure if I played the game correctly but it wasn't clear to me how I'm supposed to "cleanse" the tainted soil.
A pumpkin has to be grown next to the tainted soil
Thanks for playing!
Like most of the comments, adding a tutorial or any way of explaining how the controls works would do wonders. But other than that, I think it was pretty fun for how simple the game mechanics is. Good work.
Yepp, I'll try to come up with more intuitive controls, next time.
Thanks for playing!
Figuring out the controls at first was a bit of a task, but after some failed clicks and just smashing buttons to figure out what works and how, I was able to play by the end of stage 1.
The stages sort of felt repetitive and I didn't really understand what was the difference between them. I think that in all them I had to follow the same strategy in order to win. (Played all 6 stages).
The mechanics were interesting, until that interest run dry from the repetitiveness of the levels. Also turns out the crows were my biggest ally by the end of it.
Either way, it was pretty good work!
I didn't have a clear game play planned when I started, it changed quite some times during development. Once I got something that somewhat worked, I just kept it and didn't touched it anymore 😂😂
I appreciate the feedback
Thanks for playing!!
good game! I like this perspective very much, but it took me a while to understand that I need to select the land first, and then choose the corresponding operation~
You're not the only one which had troubles understanding the controls at first 😅
Thanks for playing!
You need to enable SharedArrayBuffer so people can play the web version. Can you do this so I can try your game, please?
It's enabled 🤔😵
Which browser are you using?
Pretty fun ! Might be a big too easy though.. (but i stopped at stage 4)
Thanks for playing! 😁
