Really satisfying to feed the composter(s) 😁 You made a good work on the graphics and the music! The gameplay is fun too! Congrats
Really cozy. It felt a bit lacking since there are no end goal besides completing the upgrades. The music and art is nice and felt really relaxing.
I enjoyed my time with this game. The pixel art is top notch, and the whole presentation hits those cozy vibes just right. And it is always fun to see some numbers go up.
I'm a little disappointed that there was seemingly nothing to do after getting all of the upgrades. In particular, I got most of the multiplication back to back at the end, then suddenly had no purpose for the tiny army I just acquired. I found myself wishing that maybe the man behind the stall needed some cash, or that there was some other milestone to achieve now that I had the full range of upgrades. It felt bad unlocking all of my potential and then having nothing to put it towards.
Navigation also felt iffy. There's no good way to know what sized pumpkins are where, and there's no real way to orient yourself in the space. I wouldn't say I got hopelessly lost, especially given the scope of this game. But I found myself wishing I had more information so I could make informed decisions on where to go while I was waiting on pumpkins to process.
Overall, solid jam entry that accomplishes everything it needed to. Congrats to the team on a job well done.
loved the game ! good idea to put improvements
the effects are brill in this game! the glow and outline of selected outlines and the great audio + sound for weather are really well done! ony issue is i did run into a bug where my composters got stuck around a tree and couldnt move. really well done tho!
Yeah we didnt have time to refine the pathfinding. Thanks for the praise!
i understand, there is not much time for bug fixing! and you are welcome, it's still a very fun game!
Looks and feels great to play! Good job on the day/night transitions, we tried doing something similar but ran out of time in the end for a proper implementation, well done! Overall a very well made game with cozy vibes :)
Thanks for playing!
really great use of lighting + weather effects + music + cute art, all combines in to a super comfy experience!
I’m glad you enjoyed the game
Really relaxing, and I love the art style and the power ups make it addictive.
And I loved the dynamic weather!
Thanks. I spent a lot of time playtesting and I also found the powerups to be addictive. I just wish we added an indicator for when the powerups are given to the composter.
I'm conflicted about the pumpkins, but they don't seem sentient so I think it's fine.
This is a great game overall, and I really enjoyed the power-ups and the art style.
We thought about giving the pumpkins faces.
Incredibly relaxing and satisfying. Loved this game, really good job!
Thanks! Your game was great too!
Power ups had me playing for too long probably lol. Had a massively good time with this one, great atmosphere. Little concerned about the sentient compost box, but cute nonetheless.
Thanks for the kind words, I can assure you no compost boxes were harmed during the making of this game 😊
This game has a great fall feel to it, and the dynamic weather changes add a cool effect. I particularly enjoyed the pumpkins. Well done!
Thanks for playing. I also love the pumpkins 🙂
The composter is super cute! I love the animations.
Simple and addictive! Well done!
