I really like that this game uses resources directly to get the result. I like the time limit and the idea of the game. I like that there is a time limit and creates a feeling of urgency to collect as many apple as you can collect.
The difference between harvesting apples via hand and using tools is noticeable.
the inventory, the tool, and fruit resources and the enemy bee make the whole system complete. Some of the details like the amount of apples got with or without hands make the game better.
It's really aesthetically pleasing. The actual mechanics of putting apples in a basket and having your different tools is very interesting. Also I really love the inventory at the bottom that shows things.
========================================
What could this game have done better?
****************************
the map layout is kind of messy. A mini tutorial inside game will help players to better understand the mechanics. Also i do not find way to use apples. Once you pick up one tool while holding another, one of them will disappear.
I think having the apple, the trees, and the resources to be placed randomly each time it resets after depositing all the apples. I also do not really know how the bee is an enemy as it seems like it doesn't really do anything. I also wish the resources could be used interchangeably since right now, when you collect three resources, only the most recently picked up resource can be used.
All the tools have the same durability and harvest rate. Changing these per tool can create depth/strategy for the player (i.e shovel has best harvest but worse durability).
adjusting the balance like the speed of the bee.
The animation for the player could've been improved as currently it always seem they're moving to the right. Additionally, there is not much to do in the game other than put the apples back in the basket. There is no end screen either to do anything. Also maybe making the bee an actual enemy or scoundrel to eat the apples would be great.
