The game is adorable. Really love the idea of building your garden slowly and getting more and more friends to join the party. I love the face the main fruit makes when seeing a new friend coming from the bushes. The only problem I see is that the best strategy to progress is not buying anything until you have enough flowers for the big building of the day and then move on to the next day, it got repetitive after that. Maybe it would have been nice to have a little more to do during the day so you keep the short attention span of the players interested. The game feels really polished and I enjoyed it, so congrats! Really solid entry!

Thank you so much for the kind words!! And yeah i definitely agree with your feedback, at first i was thinking of making the player pick flowers or plants that were too large for the little buddies to pick, but i eventually didn't have enough time to implement. But I definitely already have some ideas to make the days less monotonous for if we ever choose to continue working on the game!

But again thank you so much for the lovely words!! <3

I'm can't find mac os build in arhive

Developer

You should be able to play it, Unity's new system should allow people from windows, mac and linux to play the same build!

are you shure? Because I'm can't execute .exe file on mac os, you should did build for macos, win, and linux

Developer

I expected it to work due to Unity telling me, but I guess it doesn't work. I unfortunately cant bugfix due to the jamrules but i'll make sure to fix it when  i can!

It's very relaxing. Especially the sessions with the breathing after the jam are very suitable

Oh wow, this is such a fun and well thought game, I'm impressed! Loved the characters and the overall vibe of everything. The dance parties and breathing exercises are a really cool idea!

I did run into a bug though in the beginning where I couldn't progress because a flower had spawned out of reach:

This led to Mutsy getting stuck and fixated on this one flower and completely ignored the rest. Had to restart the game because of it.

It's no big deal though, everything else is incredibly well put together and I had a blast playing this! Thank you!

Thank you so much for playing and the lovely compliments! And oh dear, I have to look into that glitch!
