Fun little game. I must have missed an instruction cause I ended up losing on the second day, but I also was hoping to keep going as the day felt a little long so I sped it up. (Glad you added that mechanic.) Loved the artwork.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, I think we may change the information boxes at some point but you can always check the tips from the settings menu!

Pretty fun game! Got a bit repetitive after a bit but very good and the art work was cute, well done!

Developer

Thank you, I enjoyed contributing to this little submission :)

very fun, nailed. the storm needs a twist like everyone said

Developer

Thankyou and since the theme was "calm before the Storm" and not "The storm" we felt we needed to focus more on that :)

I was enjoying the cozy animal crossing like music while chopping my wood and building bridges I totally forgot my objective is to keep the lighthouse lit haha. 2 time around I made sure to prioritize it. I love the main character.

This was a really fun and cozy polished entry. Great job

Thank you! I enjoyed your game too :)

Very nice cozy vibe! The gameplay feels a bit repetitive, though. It would be great if the storm phase was more exciting. Overall, very polished and a fantastic submission!

Developer

Thank you! We defiently focused on the "calm before the storm" theme instead of a "storm" theme

Nice game. First I found there was too much text, but in fact nothing too complicated. The game looks good. It was pleasant to discover new areas, but the gameplay feels repetitive over time. Some change during storm could spice it up.

Overall great game.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, different areas will eventually have thier own biomes and resources :)

I really like the AD, look amazing and the audio is fantastic.  Cozy, a bit repetitive but really cool

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, there were things we were going to add like upgrading tools, inventory and animals but ran out of time. Definetly will be updating the game with new things!

Submitted(+1)

I really like the art and audio. The gameplay is relaxing but I feel like storm fase should be more exciting. The rest of the game feels polished great submission!

Developer

Thankyou! We definetly tried to focus more of the "Calm before the Storm" than an actual "Storm" theme

your game idea is very nice. I like your game. Super cool graphics an the audio was fantastic. 

Developer

Appreciate the feedback!

I really liked your game, it’s very polished and the idea is very nice. You have also nailed the theme.

Developer(+1)

Thank you! We tried to focus more on the "Calm" rather than the "Storm"

Submitted(+1)

Super cool graphics an the audio was fantastic. Big fan of the artistic aspects of the game. My only issue was that the actual gameplay (collecting) was basically doing the same thing over and over again, and the tedious part (walking between the trees and the lighthouse) got longer and longer. I think with games like these the progression should make the menial tasks easier, like some way to automate the collecting, or an upgrade to speed. Outside of the tediousness though, it was a great project. Well done! By far one of the nicest presentations I played.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, one of the things we had planned was upgraded tools later on with inventory and crafting, but thats when we turn this into a full title :)

Submitted(+1)

Graphics, audio, and idea are all great! My main feedback is that I found the collecting a little repetitive, so some sort of twist would have been nice.

Developer(+1)

Thak you for the feedback! We had trouble figuring out what we wanted in the demo as we plan to turn this into a title with crafting, inventory and animals so had to cut back a lot. Thanks for the idea!

A beautiful game

I loved the graphics

It's simple and fun

Developer

Thank you! Simple and fun just like your submission :)

What a great game. Cute and fun. Reminds me a lot of Forager. That is a huge compliment. Love the style and I don't see any bugs or gameplay "mishaps". This is absolutely stunning for one week.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback and yes, I went for a simple aesthetic similar to Forager but with its own art style!

Very well made! Very cozy feeling and adorable. Good job!
