Cool concept presented with an astonishingly amount of polish :)
Easy to grasp what was going on, kept interesting with the ‘hidden max stat’ mechanic.
It is absolutely impressive how polished, beautiful, fun, fresh and interesting the gameplay is !
Great submission !
absolutely amazing! adorable art, adorable music, such playful animation!! I love the way the little bubbles of water and sun float around the plants, I love the way the plants dance a little, I love the little screenshake when placing a box or a plant. so much love in this one, so many teeny little joys! I appreciate how simple a game it is--not too complex so as to be overwhelming
I also appreciated the small danger of accidentally overfeeding a plant. I felt like it encouraged a kind of careful, tender play, treating each plant gently so as not to hurt it. I felt really bad when I accidentally killed some and made sure to try my best never to do that again! I think the lack of clarity around that mechanic was to the game's benefit. if it were too clear it might rob the player of the experience of getting to learn it themself and feel closer to their plants, like a real gardener!
Love the polish and style of this! As a big fan of farming sims I played through a second time to try and optimise my garden, which is exactly what you want from this style of game I think :) my faves were the carrots.
I dont have much to say. Cute polished game. developers made a great job
What a cute game! Loved the visuals and general polish of the game, and it was very relaxing to play - glad there was no time pressure. Good job!
Absolutely a 15/15, wonderful art and a super creative take on the theme. The music was spot on, and I enjoyed how august had it's own track to let you know time was running out. Really liked the visual style on the water/sun indicators, and the hidden max sun stats on the plants was a nice way to keep it unpredictable! Fantastic work.
Very fun! I always had a thing for gardening games, and making a strategy-based one was a really interesting choice! the cute art style helped a lot to the whole experience! the only downside is that sometimes it does boil down to luck, whether you get enough water and sun for all your plants, but that's the nature of dice, so I can't really complain about that ;)
Well done!
(p.s, I would appreciate it if you could try out my game as well! It is really short so it wouldn't take long)
This was adorable, and I definitely sunk a few more minutes into this than I should have. Very well polished
loved this one, very cute and creative take on the theme while still feeling Dice Themed !!!! luv the little plant sprites
I loved the theme, loved the game. very interesting, creative and fun. You did a good job! Unfortunately I couldn't take care of the plants very well lol but I could play hours of this game. Congrats!
if you have the time, could you watch my game and give me feedback too?
Nice style of game! The animations look very nice. It was a pleasure to play.
For me, it's the perfect jam game, fast gameplay, small and very enjoyable.
Sooo relaxing!
Veri epic game, LOVE IT
Sooooo cute, very cool art, therefore a solid game :D
Very very unexpected farming game, love it
Thank you for reminding me how bad I am at keeping plants alive. It's cute and original, but after a couple of games, I still have no idea why my plants live or die.
Super cute game! I think the mechanics are a bit confusing and it could use a non-text tutorial, but other than that this game looks and feels super nice!
That's some really good art.
