Normally by the end of my comments I write My Favorite Part; here it boils down to the idea of doing your own garden blooming with flowers. When I discovered that I could take them and placed them wherever and do something really beautiful and that tingled my brain: I really see myself playing something along these lines outside of a Jam Context where I'm looking for a comfort food.

It's a pretty ambitious idea for a Jam with many cycles, a 24 day cycles among them. The idea of having multiple NPCs and... I just can't imagine how hard doing a sim could be n.n' But I'm really happy to see people just giving their all and I'm sad that someone from the team got sick :*) 

If there's a pet peeve that I have in hindsight from playing several games from the jam. It feels somewhat conventional in the sense that it moves like stardew valley/harvest moon, with a top down view, you move around a physical space where things are going to be laid out, you go to the shop, your garden, the mansion.... Somehow I think all of this ends up taking away the spotlight to planting flowers and decorating which I felt was very slow and even when I wanted to do more I really discouraged because I enjoyed the end result but not the process of doing it.

I would've enjoyed the game breaking away from this convention in order to have everything a little bit more tied together, having more synergy across elements, and also giving space add more features in the futures and scale the game without leaving the focus of the game behind... I was thinking in menus but I couldn't think of any game so I just took some minutes on the steam store and stumble upon Potion Craft which goes way more than the scope of this project (And as they say, comparison is the thief of joy) but in a lot of areas I think it is something that I imagine the assets, time and concepts you have would fit way better.  

I know some people appreciate these comments, but I hate giving these kind of feedback since I don't know what was the actual work that was put behind so I feel that I'm overstepping a boundary. But I hope it is constructive.

Regardless. My Favorite Part: I didn't know I wanted a Touhou Game where I could create my own flower garden XD. Thank you!

I tend to enjoy building games quite a lot, so it was a pleasant surprise to come across this one! Even without a heavy focus on story, the gardening concept comes together well thanks to the choice of setting and characters.

The controls are generally intuitive, and I was able to figure them out even without tutorials or control listings. Well done!

I noticed a few gameplay anomalies, although the biggest one was the lack of multi-planting-placing abilities and the lack of saving - presumably due to time constraints. The watering can could do with visual feedback on how watered the surrounding area is, to spare the need to highlight individually. Otherwise, the infinite placement range isn't wrong by any means, and can make for good QoL as a game design option.

I found the game to shine most in its character art and music! Characters on the map animate well, and the portraits are nice to look at. I also really like Yuuka's design. Custom designs & outfits are always fun to see! （＾∇＾）

There are some minor visual anomalies (specially the flower menu and Meiling sometimes being layered behind Sakuya), but these don't detract from the game at all.

As for the music, the dynamic music is very calm and fun to listen to.
(I was letting it play while writing out my thoughts!)

Overall, despite the rough edges, this concept makes for a fun garden builder!

This game is pretty pretty.

The idea of a gardening game for making pretty flower beds founds really nice and its not something I've seen done before... well at least as the main focus, and I feel like there's a lot to do with this idea for a game. The art and music is fantastic too, it sets the mood of a cozy garden really well. Id really like to see a feature for planting more then one flower without needing to open the menu again.

Cant wait to see where this game goes!
