Yes - I'm new to game jams!

How does your game fit the theme?
PRESS F TO INTERACT :)
Garry is supposed to start rebuilding the garden after it gets destroyed. But it’s hard for him — he spent so much time here, and now it’s all gone. The game doesn’t show this directly, because we simply didn’t have time to add cutscenes. Honestly, we tried to do way too much for our very first project… but that was the intended backstory.

We wanted to show how hard it is to start — that crushing feeling when everything you cared about is gone. But once you finally begin, things start falling into place. It becomes easier. Manageable. And maybe even fun.

Very cute game! I love it!

As short as it was, it showed great potential! The mechanics were all well implemented and backed up by very pleasing visuals. Garry himself is INCREDIBLY cute!

Developer

It's so nice to hear that, thanks! :D

Submitted

Nice little game :) can definitely see how this can be expanded on!

Developer

Glad you liked it! It will be expanted for sure!

Submitted

this is a very cool concept, it's sad you didn't get to finish it. I truly hope you continue working on it! I'm sure we can all relate with running short on time :). despite all, I really enjoyed this short game, the art is cute and the music has a nice vibe. Also the hedgehog is very cute!

Developer

Awww that's so nice to hear, thanks for the kind words <3

Ty! :)

Cute game, I feel like you could have added more sound effects or something to indicate I've done something. Also glad you have "PRESS F TO INTERACT :)" in ur description, I would have not figured it out otherwise. Maybe a little overlay that shows pressing F would help.

Developer

NGL I totally should do all those things D:

Hey, how do you repair the beehive? the leafs felt like a minigame, I wish there were more than 3 lol

nice game!

Developer(+1)

you can reapir it by picking up (press F) top part and putting it onto beehive (also press F with roof in hands). I wish there were more then 3 but I didnt have more time :c I proud you liked it

CUTE <3 Hedgehog wiggling with the watering can :sob: 

Developer

Haha, when I saw his idle animations for the first time my heart melted <3

A very cute game. Reminds me very much of Stardew valley. I think having a F to interact over the water pot at the start could have prevented you from needing to put it in the description. After I got it though, it was nice to just walk around and tend to my stuff.

Developer

TBH I dont know why I didnt just make F kay visioble above can if player walks into it... Damnit. But I am happy to hear that you liked it :)

Submitted

The idea is good, I loved the cleaning mechanic. Keep going

Developer

OMG thanks a lot for nice words!

Submitted

took me a second to find that it was F to interact, just leaving it here for the next player
