A very interestic take on the topic! I love it that your game gives you some time to slow down and enjoy a slow paced, chill day. he art style is also so cute! 

The only issue I had is that if you wait too long before starting a dialogue, the creatures walk away. When I speak to them later, they talk to me like nothing happened ans as we've already had some conversation. But we didn't!

Thank you for the experience :)

Developer

Thank you~ for playing and enjoying our game, and your feedback! The coherence of the story & the dialogues is also something we want so work on in our post-jam version ^.^  👍

Mann this is such a cozy game. I love the atmosphere and the mood of the game. I always thought interactive game is fun and I would suggest maybe add more interactable, like water drop. Love the game <3

Developer

You got it! We are thinking the same and are thus planning to add more of them in the post jam version. Thanks for the feedback!

A neat little game. That mosquito guy is a jerk. Great use of assets, lovely atmosphere!

Auch nett auf andere deutsche Entwickler zu treffen. Viel Glück im Jam!

So that's what my seedlings get up to...

Great art style. I don't usually play visual novels but I like the idea of using idea to show recurring characters get smaller and smaller to show the huge variety in size throughout nature

Thanks! We don't play many visual novels either so we tried our best to iterate on the formula. If you enjoyed your experience anyway, hopefully we did something right ☺️

Really cute little game! I loved the things you could click on like the leaves in the first scene, it reminded me of the bits around the hearthstone board that you could click on. Lovely writing as well. A great entry :)

Very unique game and a cool way of implementing the theme! I really liked the art style, and I also liked spamming A-S-D.

Developer

Hehe me too^^
Thank you for playing & your kind words! Glad you liked it ^.^

Where sprouts and bugs
Share joy and hugs.
Where crawling ants
Look out for lands
With fields of green,
A sunlight beam,
And tasty fruit.
This game is cute!

Developer

Ohh this is so good! Thank you for playing, and thank you for being you ☀️

Hi! First of all, the art style is AWESOME! I could not have replicated it even if the jam lasted for a week! However, I agree with the other comment, it's too slow for a game jam. People usually dont have patient and want to play fast games. Anyways the people who stops to play this will enjoy it! Good job ivorius!! :D

Very interesting concept and great art style. Though, the pacing is incredibly slow for a game jam.

Developer

Thank you! Yea, we weren't interested in making a fast-paced game, so we just entered knowing it's not what people will normally  expect from a game jam game.
