Sorry for the bug, it's a jam game after all. You can wait for in-game night time to respawn at the start or play this version https://gotm.io/anicet-nougaret-studio/earths-secrets which has this bug fixed.

I choose not to update on itch.io to stay honest and fair in regard to the jam's rules ;)

you can, the site doesn't block you, but it's considered cheating and overall a little unfair and rude, even thought this farmer bug is as stupid as 1 line of code

Well since childhood I come up with my own creative occupations like drawing and building stuff, so gamedev is very natural for me, it's both the sense of control and wisdom that one has with engineering and the therapeutic benefits that one gets by making art

I believe it's acceptable to update to fix issues like this... see the thread here: https://itch.io/jam/game-off-2020/topic/1090193/can-i-edit-the-game-if-i-submit-...

Yea, I know that but It's against my principles, I prefer to show what I was able to do. Stupid bugs I did because of stress and crunch is not something I'd like to hide from myself because otherwise it would lose stake and I would give up efforts to be careful about them the next time. In real commercial release settings, day 1 bugs can be a pain.
