I wanted to start this year on a good note, so I participated in a low effort jam this month, in hopes to finish make a game and release it. I only spent a day on it and it could be better, but I'm happy I released something.

Really impressive for only one day of work. I personally enjoyed the simplistic nature of the graphics, and the gameplay was a little repetitive but enjoyable overall.
I'll just join the train and I will congratulate you for making this in one day, although I understand the assets were already made before. Stiil good job. I enjoyed collecting resources and upgrading the city a lot.
Thank you so much!
Simple and cute. Plenty of opportunity to add on more features.
nice game
really like the theme
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it!
:)
This is an awesome cute themed game ! I found it very relaxing and pleasant to play. I’m so surprised that you were able to create so much in one day (this does not look low effort at all) ! I wish you could pick up the stuff more easily without having to confirm ‘yes’ every time. The mouse and keyboard controls are great. Awesome job !
Thanks!
Most of the assets came with the engine so it was mainly just putting it together, making the cacti and creating the events and scenes, so it was still relatively low effort, at least where art and sprites were involved.
Simple yet effective! I like the altruistic theme of this game. Cactus is very cute. After finishing everything, I was unsure if there was an ending I'm supposed to see.
Overall, it was a pleasant experience.
Thank you!!!
I'll definitely try to add something to signify when the game is complete the next time I update the game.
Very creative and fun game! I love the graphics, especially Riverside with the shifting water and the river-flowing sound effects.
Thanks!
I like the sounds and music a lot, very atmospheric!
Thanks!
Pretty good for something made in just 24 hours! Keep it up! :D
Thank you!
This was a short, simple, adorable game where you complete simple tasks for your fellow cacti! The only custom graphics are the cactus sprites whilst the rest is default RTP, but it works fairly well for what it is. My only major complaint was after you've finished all the quests, the game doesn't end. There seems to be no place you can go to properly end the game after you've accomplished everything. That aside, it was a relaxing experience and very cute ^^
Thanks for the feedback! I appreciate it.
I'll try to add a small way to end the game when I get the chance.
