Loved the side of the mouse.
I like the farmer. He seems like a chill guy.
Loved the front of the mouse.
Loved the back of the mouse.
Loved the music and the art. Very cute and overall calming experience
The music was relaxing and I appreciate the chill vibe the game has. The map is really large so it took a while to find food.
A minimap could help navigating this game. Also, I completed the first level and didn't encounter the farmer, I only know of its existance because of the comments.

Good job with the game!
As others mentioned before, I think having more hazards would make it more interesting. I didn't encounter the farmer during my playthrough, also I don't know exactly what the arrow on the screen was pointing towards, but it wasn't pointing towards my base.
The world felt a little empty, but I like the cute mouse graphics.
Well done! :)
there's a couple of bases scattered around the map I tried to make the arrow point towards the nearest but it ended up working 30% of the time and the rest is the arrow pointing at one bast at the bottom of the map
You should add a tutorial in the description of the game as I have no clue what to do.
there's a small tutorial in the options ->controls
oh i see, that helped a ton. thanks
Good indie game, although the map is a bit too big. I would think either a smaller map, or more vegetables spread out around the map would help. Also, I think 1 farmer is a bit too little for how big the map is. Maybe have 2 or 3 spread out?
I agree with Maxxy below, a mini-map would help tons.
Because of the time limit I sadly didn't have time to code a minimap
It's a nice idea, but really hard to find the food.
I only came across the farmer one time in about 5 minutes of playing, and I couldn't find 10 food items in that time.
I think a minimap, or just a zoomed out view might help; this game would benefit I think from feeling more pressured like the farmer is actively trying to protect his crops.
Technically speaking, I encountered no bugs and everything ran very smoothly. Love the music!
the farmer is supposed to be easy at the start of the game his speed and line of sight increases with how much you beat the game in a row
