I really liked this little cozy concept of a game! It's easy to understand and make something very pretty. I think it's a simple concept that's very well executed. The artstyle is cute and the little animations add a lot of life to the pumpkins. The only critique that I'd have is that it's a little hard to control. The controls for moving the camera could be simplified I feel like. Other than that, I'd love to see more decorations of course, but I already think you did a great job with a basic assortment for the jam. I'm curious as to how you did the pumpkin randomizations? I'd love to learn more about that. Thanks for participating in the jam and good job on finishing a game!

I'm glad you enjoyed it! For the pumpkins I just made some shape keys of various things like size, height, deformation, top/bottom heavy, and then just randomized those shape key values per instance, and selected the mat from a random material list :) I definitely agree on the camera it was a little jarring haha
