The art The music The flow of the game was really awesome! Really great game!

Developer

Thanks, I really appreciate it :) 

Submitted

I loove farming games, and yours is very well executed I enjoyed it a lot! I also liked the art and the tone of the dialogues. Great job! :)

Developer

Thanks, it's very nice to hear that you enjoyed playing it! :)

Pretty nice, but for some resson my crops didnt grow a bit for about 30 days, i think its becuase i places some parasites and they slowed it down, but i didnt even know they do that until i found out that the cards explain how to put them, so maybe a way to remove crops would be good?

also i really like the interaction with the npcs :D

Thanks for playing and your feedback! Yeah, a crop removal feature will be added in the next update (I'll update after the jam voting period ends). This was originally planned but I had to postpone it due to the time constraints :) 

Submitted

Great game ! Art, Music and everything good job team! 

only thing i would suggest is to had better collisions since i really don't know where the seeds will be put down or where i'll water or use the hoe so that's unfortunate, Otherwise fantastic game good job !!

Thanks for playing and your feedback! Yeah, a grid tracker/indicator will be added in the next update :)

I like how unique this is. Farming? In hell? Yes, please. On the gameplay side of things, it gets rather repetitive, but with that, there is a lot of content. 
as far as art goes, I absolutely love your UI. Your sprite work it really great too! 

Nice work! I could see myself playing this game for a little longer than I did, or maybe just take another crack at it now that I understand how to play a little better.

Haha glad you enjoyed it! :D Thanks!

Really great entry, im doing video feedback this time around. I could see myself trying to optimize a minimum days run. Good stuff.

Thanks for playing, I really appreciate it and it was nice to see that you liked it! By the way, an uproot/removal feature as well as a grid tracker are both going to be added in the next update (I'll update after the jam ends). 

The problem with the parasite plants is that they inhibit growth for each other as well, so if you put two of them next to each other they both get stuck  (only realised this after the jam deadline), which is what you've experienced.  This is also why I'm adding the uproot/removal feature with the next update!

Liked the gameplay even though the farming gets a little repetitive. Very nice sprite work! The limitation of cards could have been done a little better though.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback! :)

One of the more interesting takes on the theme I've seen :) it was good fun to play and I enjoyed the art style a lot :)

Developer

Thanks! Appreciate it :)

Really cool idea and execution. For me, the farming got a bit repetetive after a while. Maybe you could implement some events or more crops with different mechanics. But for game-jam-timelimits definitely great.
I loved to talk to the NPCs. Maybe some events including them...

Yeah more crops and additional item mechanics were originally planned but we had to scrap some content due to time constraints. Might add them as an update after the jam ends. Events including NPCs is a very good idea, thanks!

How many days did you need to escape the Underworld? On my first try I needed 64, although my high score is 38 at the moment!

Submitted

It took 58 on my first try. Maybe I'll try again tommorow.

This is pretty good! The atmosphere of the game is really soothing and relaxing, the music was pretty fitting and the art was really good. Well done!

Developer

Fun and engaging, great job!

Developer

Thanks, appreciate it!

This so cute!! Also very fun :) I kept playing till I could water a full crop of blueberries every day.

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it :) I like the blueberries as well haha

Submitted

Fun little game! Impressive for only three days! I loved the art and the music. It felt very relaxing (even though it was in the underworld)!

Developer

Thanks, that's very nice to hear!
