The pumpkin grew a little too fast to manage the entire field at a time 😂. Cute concept though <3 🎃
You should mention in the description that the arrow controls are also available (they make the gameplay so mush easier)

Solid little shop simulator! I love the transformation of the pumpkins and having to balance the exact right time to pick them. The only feedback I'd have is that they seem to go bad a bit quickly, so its hard to manage more than a couple of pumpkins at once. Great job overall!
Very cute! I like that you had the arrow keys included for movement as well as that made it a lot more comfortable to press E and Q when moving around. I agree with some of the other comments about adding something, perhaps a milestone or fixed goal/s to complete? I very much enjoyed the detail of varying gold-amounts depending on the quality of your pumpkin at the time of picking - refining that and timing my planting became my goal ^_^ hopefully that was your intent!
Very smooth character controller! I got overwhelmed with how quickly the plants grew that I could only manage a small plot of 5-6 pumpkins at most, but it was fun trying to optimize timing
I feel like the base for this game is very good but it needs something more, whether that's an increase in challenge or an escalation in how much production you can have, but due to the rate pumpkins decay and the time it takes to sell each one, you cant increase production rates no matter how much money you get. I also do like the bankrupt screen, its cute.
Cute art part and gameplay (wish there were npc's that do harvesting automatically, but ofc game jams realities are here). Well done!
Letting the pumpkin rot makes the whole game more challenging and more realistic. And rotten pumpkins will be sold at a lower price. That's so fun. I'd love to play your expanded game after jam!
Pleasant graphics and atmosphere. Quite an interesting project.
We made very similar games for this jam! Fun management pumpkin grower game. I found harvesting the pumpkins at the perfect time to be the winning strategy. It was then fun seeing how long I had to wait between sowing seeds so that I could harvest each pumpkin at its best.
An actual really fun game - the shopkeep did not care too much for how bad the pumpkins were ;)
But were really fun to play!
Would have been great to have more upgrades / things to buy. Maybe a wheelbarrow to collect more than one at a time? I noticed it was impossible to collect all if I planted too much ...
I see a lot of potential to make it a fun game.

Fun little concept! Would love to see some upgrades for planting and harvesting!
