Love the concept! It's really fun trying to control an out of control hose! I love the character, especially the nervous vocalisations! Great job, you should be really proud of this. Hard to believe it was made in 48 hours.
Rate our game too, if you like https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-2020/rate/696649
Uncontrollable, but not really? It's just right. What a fun concept, well done.

Don't Panic!Really funny and fun game! I laughed out loud when the guys death sound had reverb on it.

A Walk of SurrenderVery original idea, the only thing to change here is some indicator when finishing level. Now it feels like random teleport. :)
PS. And full screen option.

Five Seconds Till DoomFun game! I never knew gardening tools had such potential as game mechanics. Great job.

Music RecitalWow, what a great idea - fits the theme really well! I am surprised you were daring enough to create a game which uses rope physics as the movement mechanic for a two day jam, good job! I would be interested to see this idea explored and polished further ;)

Ice Cream Boy and the Magic BulletI was a little confused about what I had to do at first, but the moment I figured out, it was a huge LOL moment and I was smiling the rest of the time I played. With some polishing up, this would be a great touch screen game in an app store!
Also, I can't imagine how much time and thought you had to put into the way the hose wrapped around things. I was just reading a whole article on the rope physics in The Last of Us 2, and here you pulled off an (albeit simpler) version in two days! Nice. :-)
As it is, I didn't have much desire to keep playing for too long--the "out of control" nature of the controls don't jibe well with my level of patience--but I think adding, say, an arrow that indicates the direction and force of the water may help better convey how your farmer will move.
The article is nothing technical... Just about attention to detail. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.polygon.com/platform/amp/2020/6/22/21299451/the...
Really liked this game. It was a little hard to get used to the movement, but i could manage to beat it. Nice work!

Low ControlThis is a really cool take on the hose idea, I really liked your level progression, and the farmer character is super cute! After doing some hose physics myself for this jam I know how hard this is to get right. Great job!
