Enjoyed the game I also had the "bed" issue but then played in fullscreen and it worked lol love the sound effects they are crispy!

thanks for playing, I'm glad you could resolve the issue, i have no idea how to recreate it :(

I get stuck every time after I plant my seed and cannot play the whole game :( the idea seems to be nice though, i'd love to see more of it

Developer

That's interesting, I'm sorry to hear that. Could you perhaps elaborate on the state of the game when you get stuck? Perhaps I can push a bug fix.

I get in the bed and screen turns black. Music keeps playing until it stops, and I can hear that my character is moving but do not see anything or cannot interact with anything !

Developer

Hmm... Are you playing the game in a fullscreen mode? It only works properly when it's embedded into the page unfortunately. Other than that, I am unable to replicate. How frustrating!

Submitted

No, not in fullscreen mode :( it's the only game of the jam that isn't playing for me though

I think you implemented the theme very well into the story of the game, although Tomato Lord's comment is a bit brutal (considering you're only two days in, and I think the internet has some kind people on it too! Especially in the plant-growing community D: )

I know you submitted super early so it's obviously great for that amount of time. If I could give some feedback it would be to somehow make the pacing faster, for example shortening the space back to the bed or simply making a 'sleep' button and waking up in the bed; walking back and forth can be a bit tedious when nothing much is happening.

Thanks for playing. Be a Tomato Lover, not a Tomato Lord
