A really interesting aesthetic! Very well put together and I am quite interested in how you came up with it! It felt like a pleasant Don't Starve with far softer edges.

The gameplay was pretty good. Clever how you only have one limiting factor, really, being the amount of seeds you have/can generate. A clever design loop. I think it would have been good to limit the world space and maybe made it so you couldn't farm absolutely everywhere, as a more directed setup is definitely my preference for an incremental game. But with that said, that is just personal preference.

Nicely executed, especially since there were some first timers on the team! Great work, everyone

Nice farming game :) Got to a score of about 5k. It was fun going around tilling/planting/harvesting. Was somehow delighted to see that the farming happened automatically in little cells, so I could arrange everything in a grid :) The art, sound and overall feel was really good. I think with some added challenges, purchases, etc, this would be more fun to play.

Cool farming game love the graphics and sound. Excellent harvester sprite.  Nice seeing numbers go up.

Graphics and audio are top notch, it's so cute! But unfortunately, the gameplay felt like it had no purpose with nothing to spend my hard earned coins on. I enjoyed perfecting my little loop of till, plant, harvest, but then there was no incentive to keep going. I don't want to sound too down on it, because y'all did a lot right! If just add a goal to keep the player invested, then this would shape up to be a fantastic game. The cuteness alone kept me wanting to play

Okay, I must start by saying that I have a soft spot for farming games, and for watching numbers go up... After amassing about 13k bear-bucks and playing for 67 (in-game) days... All I can say is that this game is beautiful. I mean, it's a quick play, but I loved it. The visuals are just fantastic, and I loved how the music came from the house so you know where you were on the game world. Really nice touch. The UI is clean, the movement is smooth.... Just great! Only things I would add (beyond more content and such) would be a "click and hold" sort of tilling and planting method (much like the harvesting), and perhaps a "remove" tool so I can fix mistakes in my perfectly rectangular crop field. Maybe some connected textures for when crop spots are next to eachother? Of course, this is a jam, so I know a lot of this is just "nice to have". Such a great job!

The Paper Mario visual vibes are lovely. :) I played for a while (1000+) coins, but don't think there were any more mechanics coming? Regardless, it's pretty peaceful just repeating the process. Nice submission!

I like the cute bear on top of the combine. I also like the money rolling in when harvesting a line of wheat. I'm also something of a farmer myself...
