I enjoyed this a lot, especially the artwork and farming. I used to catch newts as a kid, I like that the character sleeps in water.

Spiders just eat my lunch if I don't know "the trick" to run out asap. It was very fun to stream, despite my many deaths to the evil spiders and inability to beat the boss.

I wish I could play entirely with the mouse, or entirely with the keyboard, but I found myself having to go back and forth. something to think about and I could have been doing it wrong.

Fun game with a cool concept. I think the boss is bugged because after I hit it a bunch it stopped moving and attacking but it still dealt damage to me if I ran into it and it didn't seem to be able to take anymore damage.

Great entry! I love the concept. It was pretty difficult at first before i knew what was going on but once i got the hang of it i liked it! I wish I could heal at least once per sleep though.

Developer

Difficulty is a bit tough sometimes yes !

I'm glad you had a good time :)

Lovely art! Cute main character :)

Developer

I don't even remember why I went for amphibians in the first place, but i'm ok with my simple pixel art on this one ;)

Thanks !

Fun game, I liked the idea of planting your own enemies, it's not something I've seen before.

Thanks for playing !

I love this game! (even tho I didn't even reach the boss). The music is fun and playful. The game is kind of like a "choose your own difficulty" and I like that! I played a few times but didn't reach the boss, definitely coming back again later to try and beat the boss.

Developer

Thanks, i'm glad you had fun :)

This was fun! I played through twice. I thought I was doing pretty well the second time around, but still didn't beat the boss. I thought the market and economy were quite functional. I think the combat could use the most improvement.

Welcome back to GWJ! I'm looking forward to seeing more.

Developer

Thanks so much for your kind words !

Yeah combat still a bit clunky, and map design was rough. Glad you enjoyed it !
