Nice submission for your first.

Liked your take on the theme and game design.

Some suggestions to improve the game:

1. Zoom out a little - very hard to see where the enemies are coming from

2. Modify your shooting mechanic - no reason to use user constantly click. Holding down mouse should keep shooting. A suggestion I wish I would listen to more myself: Place yourself into the shoes of the game player and make sure the game is simple and easy to understand and not frustrating [at least of the easy difficulty]. 

3. Sound/Music really adds to the feel of the game (I often leave this too late as well).

Let me end with this: You have a good start here and again, this is a very good submission for your first, keep with it and your submissions will continue to improve

Thanks for the tips! I'll aim to add them into the re-vamped version and keep it in mind for any future games

Cute game! Nice for a first Godot game.  I hope you come back for more wild jams in the future. :)

Nice job! My first jam to. Let's keep going, we're learning! I like your game, it is kinda like a free form tower defense almost.

Cute !

Good job on making your first gamejam !

I couldn't dig multiple holes sadly and the game is pretty bare bones. But for a first one you did great, hope to see you in the next editions !

The graphics are so cute. I like the speed that the pig can move in relation to the farmers. however it's hard to tell where I'm going because it's so zoomed in and you don't have the boundaries of the world marked. I'm also not sure how to pick up the pumpkins. I clicked them and pressed E, but sometimes they pick up and sometimes they don't. Since by the time they are ready for harvest you are getting chased it may be more usable to harvest them on collision with them when they are ready.

Pretty good for your first entry! I'd say the best part of the game is the graphics and the gameplay loop. The parts that weren't very good were the controls, having to run back and forth through the screen with the mouse to switch between gun and hoe gets tiring fast. It would also be nice if I could just keep the mouse pressed to plant or shoot. Overall it's ok.

Thanks for the input! Whenever I go back and edit it I'll keep that in mind
