Thank you SO SO much!

Thank. WE are very glad!
I had debug notification about bouquet state - "Main flowers filled", "Vase empty", "Vase filled" etc., that i think would be helpful in situations like this. But I decided to get rid of them as I didn't know how to present them and of course, did not have enough time for it. UI sounds were in our plan list - they were actually our next step, and if we have a bit more time, we will definitely add them into the game.

Thank you so much. Very glad that you liked it!!

Actually i was not alone. We are a team of two: my wife and I. I was doing mostly coding stuff, but art was done by her.

Thank you!
My idea was to add some sound effects for success/wrong bouquets - customer giggle or grudge based on result. But some sort of feedback/dialogue from a customer after receiving their bouquet sounds interesting as well.

Light work day :)

- Minor improvements of core loop

- Start adding animations to main scene.

 - Added some sound effects

Dev - log #10 - 04/12:

Big day: a lot of things were done today.

- Finished all pots with flowers.

- Finished with the main scene sprites: table, vase, shelf, background.

- Created a tutorial. 

- Tweaked a lot of things with a core mechanics

Dev - log #9 - 04/11:

Getting there.

- Worked on the environment of the main room. Drew shelves where flowers in the pots will be standing. Will be needed that for later - from these pots, the player will picking flowers to make a bouquet.

- Minor changes on vase layout, so that it will form somewhat of a real looking bouquet. 

Dev - log #8 - 04/10:

- Continue to draw art.

- Today was all about the environment and not flowers. Draw two people and a main table where a vase will be standing

Dev - log #7 - 04/09:

Day of art creation. 

- Draw all the flowers, at least some sort of decent versions. 

- Draw pots for flowers

- Draw flowers in a pots

- Started to think about how to adapt flower overlay so that the bouquet will look good with different types of flowers

Dev - log #6 - 04/08:

- Started working on the art. This will be the most difficult task for me. The amount of art needed for a game, even for a small game for jams is enormous.

- Created a draft list of everything that needs to be drawn.

- Draw a first version of all the variations of flowers and some pots for them

Dev - log #5 - 04/07:

- Added two more flowers

- Added missed logic - deleting flower from a vase and clear all vase

Dev - log #4 - 04/06:

Finished with core game logic/flow: 

- Created a receipt/order creation based purely on randomness and flower availability.

- Created a validation logic between the order and a completed bouquet in vase.

- Added placeholder for tulip. 

- Decided on changing the main resolution for the game to 640x360 to make picked flowers stand out from the rest of the scene. Flowers now will be in 32x72.

Dev - log #3 - 04/05:

- Created a repo for the project and started creating main scenes in the project. 

- Created the first flower as a placeholder. The main idea behind the game at this point is: a flower shop where the customer brings a receipt (order) and you need to create a bouquet with the respective flowers. 

- Created a simple animation after picking flowers. Implemented storing logic on the vase. Before submiting order to a customer

Core loop:
Customer → order (recipe) → pick flowers → place in vase → submit → validate → next customer

Dev - log #2 - 04/04:
Prepared project folders, added some more information/refs to miro board, added timeline of what needs to be done.

Yeah, it is what it is. First jam: a lot of ideas, just a poor planning. But nonetheless a great experience. 

Dev - log #1 - 03/30:

Preparing for a game jam beforehand as i dont have much experience in development and especially in pixel art. 

Created a miro board with already created assets that I can use for this jam. Added some refs.

Write a first version of a game/idea.

There are just no endings at all. I placed invisible walls around the starting area so that players can't see the mess

Yup, I forgot to clean up after the player death.
Gray screen just sit there, but i didnt experience crashes on windows.
