I loved the aesthetics!  Mechanics are pretty solid as well. The character reminded me of Cartman lol :D Wel done!

Well done for this little cozy game <3

Cozy game. I liked the animations, the game is very relaxing. I want to plant more trees and watch them grow. I wonder what else you planned to add to the game?

Developer

Thank you for the kind words, a merchant who would come by car, currency, a timer, a house, stamina, coffee that would restore stamina, time of day and night like in "stardew valley"

Wow, this seems too big for 4 days

Thank you

Nicely done! I love that you can plant the trees wherever you want and watch them grow. The music was also a great fit for a cozy fall theme. It would have been great to have something to do with the wood or maybe have a timer to collect as much wood as possible in that time, but that's a small thing.

I agree completely, there were a lot of ideas, there was little time))

Pleasant atmosphere of autumn and tranquility, a game in which you can relax well.

Thank you very much, I’ll rate your game a little later, I’ve already played enough jam games today))

Your game looks impressive, and obviously not for a couple of minutes, it will be interesting to play
Submitted

Thank you :) I'm eager for you to play it :)

Very cute project! I love the simplicity of it. Interesting loop that translates in a cozy experiencie.

Sound design was on point. 

I have a question: Are the logs a score system? I assume that´s the case, but for a while I thought it was some sort of resource I would be able to use

Thanks for the feedback, I planned to get coins for selling the tree, and for the coins to buy seeds and useful things from the merchant, he would arrive at a certain time by car, but I didn’t have time, so the tree is here just for counting

Submitted

Nice! I think it still works pretty well  without those features

Developer(+1)

Thank you, I like that by participating in jams you can be inspired, and I’m sure your project has inspired many to do something interesting! Don't stop creating such interesting games, I'll be happy to play them

I love the peaceful vibes and Bubbly animation of everything.
A few Things that would've been nice:  a keyboard key for swapping what your holding (my mouse doesn't have a very good scroll wheel),  something indicating that you cant place the seed by the player (like maybe it turning invisible?),  and something showing which seeds are planted vs lying on the ground.

Developer

Thank you for the detailed review, I have everything you described written down in my notes, I myself pressed the number one a couple of times to select the axe, there was also an idea with a red square when you can’t plant a seedling, and it shows which area I’m climbing into

Submitted(+1)

Fun idea, executed well enough!

Developer

Thank you for writing! I will definitely watch your game!

Loved it ! I made a heart out of trees but it was too big for the screen :(

Only problem I encountered was that the wood could drop out of bounds.
Great job !

This is so sweet, I haven't played as much as you, thank you very much! I am very pleased, you have an amazing game, I remember it

This is sweet. I filled the entire forest with trees and just chilled in the forest for a bit. I know you said you didn’t feel like you did a lot, but I legit feel like this game had all it needed to have, anything else would have distracted from the forestry mechanic. I liked the polish you added with the clouds and animations a lot. As much as I loved the character and the way he bounced, I do think he was a bit more on the “funny” side which distracted a bit from the chill vibes, so that’s the only thing I would change. Really good job overall. I made the forest a mix of different trees, I kind of want to try it again picking one tree like the orange one and seeing what the forest looks like with only that.

Thank you for your feedback, I'm amazed that in such a small game you found so many facets to express my mini-game.
P.S I wanted to make the movement like in South Park, so as not to get hung up on the movement animation
