beautiful flowers!! I bought all the land and I'm a landlord now (at least in this game) 😎
Haha that's some great dedication! lol
Thanks for playing the game!
Glad you liked the flowers and the game!
And hey, who knows, maybe one day, you'll become a landlord in real life xD
The game turned out super cute! I loved the sound effects. It would have been nice to see a UI design showing the money I spent and earned. I really liked it, and I’d definitely love to see you keep developing this!
Thanks! Glad you found the game cute and liked the sound effects! :D
That sounds great but... why show the money you spent and earned when the money is already displayed? Would like to hear why!
I'll probably try updating the game when I have the time to! :D
To be honest, I was already aware you were right about the point you mentioned while I was writing my comment. Why should I see the money I’ve earned or spent while the amount I currently have is shown on the screen? But I want to clarify that I’m making this comment not as a developer, but as a player :D I just thought that with your pixel art style, you could add a nice money-earning and spending animation + sound effect. It just felt to me like it could make the gameplay more fun and exciting — and I also noticed there were some questions in the comments about the money spent and earned. If the game were mine, I’d definitely try adding it, but hey, it’s your game, my friend :D And what you’ve created is awesome! Please don’t take this the wrong way :))
really nice graphics and UI design. Surprisingly addictive gameplay after things get going. Was a bit confused why Id lose at first but then read the info in more detail and saw the Taxes. On screen indication of that would've helped but otherwise, great game loop and presentation :)
Thanks!
Glad you liked the graphics and UI design!
And yeah, it's addictive, but a good one!.. I think- (lol)
An on-screen indicator? Well... yeah, but I kinda wanted users/players to also feel like they need to save up some spare money, adding to the stress/excitement and the game loop! :)
Nice game, i like it.
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
Nice concept! There are a few confusing parts, like the 2 min Tax thing, an in-game indicator could really help planning ahead for it, and as others said knowing exactly in game how much each flowers cost and how much they've earned you when you collect would improve this a lot already! Also, maybe reworking how much each gives, because right now at their peak each flower only seems to give 5 more than their cost, so there isnt really a reason to use the most expensive ones, unless I've misunderstood something.
Still, overall a very fun and enjoyable game, and impressive to have done in half the time as well! There's good potential for a super fun game in there, keep it up!
Yeah, I didn't have enough time to add those :C
You're actually totally right, I found out about this problem this morning lol
Glad you enjoyed it!
And thanks for playing!
Love the artstyle/sounds and overall aesthetic! Gameplay loop was simple but quite a lot of fun. Only note is that I wish it showed you how much each of the flowers cost before buying, and it took me a minute to notice how you place on the grass. Still, the game was really cool! Kudos!
Thanks! Glad you liked the aesthetic and the game loop! :D
As for the cost stuff, I didn't have enough time to show them ingame haha (the timer said I only had 2 minutes left to submit lol)
I'll try to add as much info as I can in the description though! :D
Really nice spring pixel art style. I really admire it, however the game is a bit unintuitive for me and i didnt know how to buy flowest or what to do at first
Thanks! Glad you liked the art style! Though yeah, I didn't have enough time to add a tutorial (since I only made this game in around 20 hours haha)
Cool game! The art style was very pretty, and I especially liked the background and GUI. Very calming to just grow a garden casually. I liked it!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed playing my game! :D
