This is a really fun concept!

A tiny little game that can be played multiple times for a high score is always a good one. If you keep working in this one, it would be nice to have some randomizers so the game isn't predictable after a few plays.

Also I liked how it gets out of control depending on your own performance.

Also I'm curious.. which was your best score during testing?

Nice, Im always impressed by 3D games during a gamejam. Good work. Also pretty fun. A few suggestions though:

It would be nice to be able to win. I completed the game with 100% moved grass but still got "Game Over". But Im sure you know that and just hadnt had the time.
A progressbar to show how much grass was cut would be good.
Maybe deal minus points for destroying "valuable bushes" and such

I realy liked the art and animations. Since nothing happened after I mowed everything and I didn't find a progress bar or anything like that, I didn't know until the end if what I was doing was correct

Thank you! Yeah that was one feature we definitely wanted to get in but didn't end up making it in. Ended up being a bigger challenge than expected. But it's good to know!

Very cool art! I was very close to 100% but the best I got was 99%.
