So after a bit of struggle, I was able to get used to it/get it to work: https://imgur.com/a/q8CcXo2

From what I can tell it feels you have some kind of bug with the controls? I really needed to spam/switch between the inventory. The chest also seemed to didn't want to get placed.

If you can smoothen the controls a bit I can definitely see this as a chill and relaxing game to play when you don't wanna do anything intense.

Sadly in its current state, I can't say I found it enjoyable as the controls were kind of exhausting to use :(

If I were to give you another tip, maybe try out a different font. I'm guessing that a lot of people will skip over the intro since it's a bit difficult to read.

Glad you got it to work somewhat, yeah I feel bad that it was submitted in its current state but all the comments will lead to its development and Ill take them all on board :).  Better to be submitted as a proof of concept than not to have tried I guess, so I don't see it as 100% a loss for me.

Spam switch between the inventory? you mean to change items? not really sure how the chest isn't working, maybe something I didn't experience while working on it so more details would be helpful if you would be able to provide them :).

The font is the default font for pico 8 so I just used it for simplicity, but yeah that's another feedback I commonly get so I can try to make a custom one or something.

But yeah, chill desktop toy sorta farming game is what I'm going for, and I know exactly how I want it to be so will make sure it gets there!

https://imgur.com/a/neddGf5 As you can see I haven't placed the chest but have dug up a few holes, additionally the placement indicator(the square border thing doesn't show). Pressing X digs more holes(although I have the chest selected).

To get out of this state I spam Z + X until the placement UI shows up -> https://imgur.com/a/ILEC2bI now on the next X the chest gets correctly placed.

I need to do a similar trick every time I want to switch to a seed/hoe/water. Hopefully, this helps.

Edit: I figured it out. Pressing Z opens the inventory, pressing it again closes it without selecting the new item(although it is still indicated in the bottom left and it looks selected). I needed to select the item/close the inventory with X for it to work as intended :D.

hahaha! yeah thats unintended... oops, Ill make sure to fix this in the next version, this is what rushing looks like :P.  I will try to fix a lot of things for the next version, but that will be released after the jam's voting period ends.

Thanks for pointing this out to me!
