How does your game fit the theme?
You are not the hero or a god controlling a war. You are a goblin farmer stuck in a war between the humans and the goblins struggling to survive! As far as gameplay mechanics go, this is a stressful farming simulator. Which is a reversal of expectations with farming sims.

Cool premise! I agree the start is a little too hard but I like the little goblin guy!

I love the music, very ambitious game. Shop keeper lady bugs out though and stays on the screen for the next run. Got stuck on an accept or decline screen.

Very difficult and not a lot to do at the beginning. The crops seem to die very quickly if not watered leaving you in a very bad position if they die. Maybe it gets better later but I wasn't engaged enough to get to that point.

Difficult, but really interesting to have a punishing farming game. Well done

I love the idea and the game also makes quite a lot of fun.

Just the beginning is a bit rough and there's not much more to do than wait and water crops.

But especially for 48h it's a great Game. Keep it up!

Interesting, but hard to play, as the game won't pause when explaining things, and I died multiple times in the shop :))

But looks promising, and the aesthetics are cool

Pretty fun game! At first I was starving constantly, but it got a bit easier later on. Clever idea with lots of potential
