The addition of the rent definitely had an affect on increasing my investment. Nice touch.

Had fun with this, reminded me of that old disney sandwich stacking game.

Fun little game! I'm not very good at it but I had a great time!

Cute graphics, great sound, accurate simulation (I did catch a fruit or two in the past myself so I can tell!) I would only maybe put the fruit spawn a bit more dispersed over time. I saw three/four fruits spawning regularly at once and avatar was too slow for me to be able to react quickly. Nontheless, I enjoyed it!

Great job!

The artstyle is really well done, and the graphics are cute. Nice transitions between levels and the music fits the cutesy artstyle. I just think the physics made catching the fruits really frustrating.

Well Done! :)

I like cute fruit catching

Submitted

The graphics and sounds were excellent. The gameplay was a little too fast paced and while simple was sped up and quite repetitive. Nicely made level transitions were interesting to see.

This game was really well done and polished! My only problem was that it was pretty hard to decipher which fruit was what. It was fun overall.

I went bankrupt with that raising rent rates, haha :D Catching fruits falling on a head and  sneaking out of  cart was a real challenge, I've tried  hard :)
Got a lot of fun playing it, well done guys!

Great entry overall.  As others have stated, it is really hard to pair fruit with order. Love the little lore detail of all fruits growing on the same tree in the background. That answered question, where are the fruits falling from pretty nicely =)

Super polished and well made!

Seems like sometimes it was hard to tell which fruit was which, but overall really really liked the look and feel of everything in this one!

I like the aesthetic and feel but I think that you should make the fruits more easy to distinguish and make that the fruits on the list have more chances to appear. Overall very good job :D

Really nice aesthetic, especially the music and sounds.  Would love upgrades or power ups!

Pros:

  • I like art style, it’s warm and it had day-night cycle! Lovely.
  • Music is short but very catchy.

Cons:

  • I’m having a hard time distinguish a falling fruit, but let not be a self-centered and assume that it’s just you that can’t distinguish it.
  • Frequently bad RNG waiting that one right fruit to fall for half a day.

PS: Relatable, as I’m working my ass-off just to get off rent to stay alive. Very realistic sims.

7/10

Cute game, smooth gameplay and fun music and sound effects. My only real critique is that the fruit in game doesn't look the same as the fruit in the side window so it is sometimes hard to tell which is which,  but you get used to that after a bit.

Ah yeah I noticed this as well. Glad you were able to get used to it and thanks for the feedback!
