This is the most high-concept game I've played in a while. The basic premise stretches what defines a game beautifully. Really great job on this project!

thank you so much for the kind words :)

I needed a few attempts to get the hang of it!
I like the idea and theme. It's really cute, together with the art and music! 😊

Unfortunately, I got a bit stuck because I ran out of inventory space.
That means I can't use the shovel anymore (there’s no room for the dirt).

Developer

Thank you so much for playing and for the feedback! 🙂 What were you initially confused by? Apologies, yeah if you run out of inventory space you kind've lose but I ran out of time to properly implement a minor fail state!

The first time I played it was before you added the tooltips, I think.
So it took me a while to figure out that I had to hold left-click and then use right-click to dig (even though it was explained in the control section).

The part with the dirt wasn’t explained, I think, so it also took me a bit to realize I needed to place dirt on the fields to free up inventory space.

And one last thing: when pressing Q or E to open the progress/rewind menu, you can only end the cycle if the moon is in a specific section; otherwise, the option doesn't show up.

These were just small things that confused me at first, but after a bit of fiddling around, I got it.

Okay that's interesting, again the feedback is really helpful so thank you :)
