A little confusing at first, you could better explain what to do, maybe with a tutorial rather than text, I think that would help. I did like the design and look of the game though. Good effort!

Lovely game, good job. I think the idea and its connection to the theme are great.

I didn't find it obvious that I couldn't be matching couples the whole time, so spent a lot of time clicking on doors during the "moving in" and "tax" phases, and then I would get some matches, and then go back to clicking without any doors opening. A clearer indication of the different phases and which one the game is in would be useful, perhaps via something like a status bar or clock face at the top moving through the different phases, rather than the text prompt at the top?

Anyhow, I enjoyed it, thanks!

The first couple mins I had no idea what I was doing! But I managed to finish it! Find my video review below:

I appreciate the effort that you actually took the time to review it in a video. It is much easier for me to see where you had difficulties and why.

Nice game! i like the different effects on the land during the different seasons, makes this simple concept quite artistic! It did took quite long before you had enough money to buy land in my opinion. I can tell you did the song in the beginning by yourself but did you also do the other music yourself?

Ye my string ripped while recording the first song so i had to resort to beepbox to make the second song. So consider yourself lucky ^^. Otherwise it would have been a loong series of less is more songs. The second music took me whole day to make while the intro was just a few minutes. It definitely messed up my time scedule.

It took me time to understand the game but overall it was good. I can see that you ran out of time so you probably couldn't create a full-fledged tutorial. The sprites were amazing. It's a simple thing but you even added shadows to the trees and the seasons changing was a very nice touch. Great game!

I would really appreciate it if you could play and rate my game as well. Thanks!

If this had a tutorial, the game would be quite nice! It was a bit confusing to understand it all, but the art and sounds were great!
