Really chill and fun game to play, incredible work for a seven days jam ! Had a really good time playing it and would without a doubt pay to play a longer version of the game with more depth.

This was truly wonderful, and you all managed to create so much in a week!

I don't know what else to say, everything about the game is just so well-made, the dev-diary was great to read through too. Hats off to all of you!

Thank you for your encouragement. It's also very nice to see people are enjoying the dev-diary. I was not sure if the dev-dairy had any readers. We are quite new to this. It is still astounding how many people play the game and leave nice comments. The feedback helps a lot.

Peaceful and relaxing game, gives me stardew valley vibes. It's impressive for being done in 7 days, it has potential, you should expand later :)

Cool idea and have potential for a full game, just need to change the crafting button, really i didn't play till the end because accidentally i got back in the page, ctrl isn't a good button to use on that game, don't know how many times i almost saved the page, but this just for browser if you do i for a downloable version it have no problems ^^

hope you can have a look at my game too

Developer

Thank you very much for your kind words and feedback! Unfortunately we weren't aware of the problems that Control+WASD may cause in browsers :( We have added a note in the description that we recommend to use the key arrows instead and we will definitely keep it in mind for the future!

Very nice peaceful game, although the connection to the theme is pretty weak.

I would personally prefer a bit more of a directed approach, as the game can be quite unclear at times.

Developer

Thank you very much for your feedback :) You are right about the theme, our idea was to make a game about connecting to others and especially their dreams. We wanted the tasks to become easier or even possible in the first place after you've let them into your life. We should have pointed this more out but unfortunately we ran out of time and had to lower our sights. And a tutorial would have been helpful too, we will keep that in mind for the future :)

Awesome Pixelart, Had a hard time at the beginning to Understand what to do.

Sounds are nice and fits very well.

Theme wise im not sure, it doesnt feel like "Stronger Together" maybe im missing something.

More Mechanics and Stuff to do, maybe some Traps and Health to make it a bit more Survival Like, now its just very chilling and lets go to the other Areas do the "Repeative" Tasks and finish it.

I would change the Harvesting and Collecting a little bit, so you just walk over the Items they dropped. Picking up all the Items one by One, Key by Key feels unnecessary and annoying.

But Good Work, besides i cant find the Theme inside.


Don't forget to have a Look on Our Game:

We wanted to make a game about connecting to others and especially their dreams. The idea was that your tasks become easier or even possible after you let others into your life. But you are completly right. Some scope decisions in development  streched the metaphor pretty thin. Thank you for your feedback.

Very chill and a good time! Collecting resources was nicely paced and the progression was natural and fun. I enjoyed seeing all the characters we met moving in!

The graphics and the background were very nice too :)

Nice and relaxing game, with a lot of work and content put into it.  Reminds me a lot of stardew valley.

Developer

Thank you so much :)

I love the game a lot. It gives me stardew valley-esque vibes, but since we're all here to learn and gain experience, here are a few notes that I'd give: 1. I think the footstep sound is a bit annoying, so I docked a point for that. Try making it a bit more varied instead of repeating the same sound over and over. How about different sound when walking on dark and light grass? 2. When starting the game, there should be a button prompt when you first chop a tree or craft an item, it took me a sec to figure out what each control does. 3. I think you should be clearer on first look that the left of the crafting means ingredients and right of the crafting means product. 4. I think once you craft something there should be a greater indicator that you actually got the thing you crafted, instead of a tiny, barely visible button on the item. 

Thank you for taking your time to make this game, and I hope you guys enjoyed the process.

Thank you very much for your kind words :) Your feedback is very helpful and I totally agree with you - a tutorial would have helped a lot and would have made things more clearer. For the footstep sound we used a sample of four different sounds but maybe they were too similar in the end. I really like the idea to distinguish between the two grass tiles though! Thank you very much that you took the time to give us so many suggestions, we will keep them in mind for the future :)

Auto pickup would be nice but i had a lot of fun messing with the sheep.

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much, I'm glad to hear that you liked the sheep :) You weren't the only one who criticised the missing auto-pick-up system so our programmer implemented one and we will update the game after the voting period is over.

Reminded me old games I used to play. The pixel art was spot on as well!

PET THE SHEEP!!

Developer

Aww thank you so much for your kind words :) I am team #PET THE SHEEP!! too, it made me so happy that our programmer implemented that feature :D
