Unexpected ending! Overall a very complete game for a jam, played twice. Agree that more UI would be nice but didn't factor that into my rating because its a jam. Visuals were consistently high quality. Love that you made a TBS strategy game... an under-represented genre on itch and glad you made this. Thanks!

Some visuals for the animals and for the food would have been good because it is hard to interpret the numbers sometimes and know what to do. Also a "+10 seeds" or something next to each tree every time they produce seeds would make it easier to recognize what the function of each plant is. Anyway, this game is still really polished and fun. 😀👍

Nice game, pretty simple and enjoyable. The UI could use some improvements, like better text alignment and some icons. Didn’t expect the ending!

Really loved the game! Love the premise and really enjoyed the visuals, super well-scoped! I think that a consistent UI for the cost of each upgrade could really help improve the experience. Something like:

Name: X
Effects: +Y (tree icon) -C
Cost: 6 (seed icon)

As you know, gamers notoriously do not like to read 😅

You could also include a +5 food/day right below the food counter to help make things more clear to the player as well.

I also came across this thread for game balancing https://twitter.com/tanyaxshort/status/1301990872645468160 and thought that it might be helpful for approaching balance in your game (not implying that the balance is off, but just want to spread the helpful threads).

Well done, a calm game with nice design and music !

Alright I tested it several times thing is "Seeds come easy, Food come easy, Animals come easy, the only thing that doesn't make sense is roughly around day 700 ish the game crashes each time! :)

Dang well that ending was pretty rude lol. Interesting. I think that it's good that it's overly easy because it ensures everyone will make it to the ending. Also, the pacing is pretty good so the experience doesn't drag out. I think it would be neat if the player could actually see the animals or maybe if there were flowers or other forms of life in the forest (it might make the ending more impactful). Nicely done :)

super cute visuals and music!

the gameplay was a bit confusing though, when can I place a block and when can't I? I ended up just clicking repeatedly until the block would place. 

Hey, I really like the idea and the look of the game - both were quite nice. I think some UI indicating total production, total loss, things like that would really help the game be more intuitive to the player. I also felt as though it was a tad on the easy side, I never felt as though I was strategizing, rather I just spammed berry bushes. I really enjoyed playing your game and thought it was really cool! Great job ;)

A nice and calm game.

I would like a better indication of how well I'm doing, or how close I am to ecosystem collapse.
