I tried playing this one a couple of times now. The gameplay is a nice start to a farming sim. I like the art as well. As for the gameplay, it feels empty and not enough to do. Framing isn't bad, but I feel it's not enough to make me play for longer than a few minutes at a time. I think with more time and features, this could be a great game. The character designs make me want to know about the small world you have going on. I like character development, so getting to know your town more would be awesome.
If this game didn't have a load save system, I feel I couldn't give it a proper rating. The amount of plants you were able to get in here is extremely nice. The music flows well with your world. This is a wonderful game.

Yeah, I get that! For the jam I really wanted to emphasize the core gameplay loop surrounding the plants, so filling out the game with more things outside them wasn't a high priority. As a full game I plan to add more content to really flesh out the world apart from the plants (my design document is filling up FAST).
