How does your game use the theme "cultivation"?
The main character of the game is a peasant responsible for cutting the grass of a village because the land was blessed with infinite fertility by god. The character then does this for 7 days while his land falls into ruins again.

I don't usually play horror / atmospheric games, but I can say that this one did bring a sense of ominous dread at what I might find at the next day. 

I think the old English font was a little difficult to read. 

some bugs I found:

I tried to leave in day 2, and I couldn't mow. The music in day 2 didn't loop very well.

Day 4 I couldn't mow fast enough, and then stopped being able to mow.

This game is really pretty! It's all so vibrant and the colors work so well together! I did have a hard time maneuvering through the bushes and I got stuck sometimes. Perhaps maybe if you can move through the bushes but have a slow penalty would the movement feel better

Other than that, it's a really pretty game!

Thank you ❤️! I forgot to improve the bush collisions, they literally are a cube and when they spawn on you they end up trapping you.
