Great job submitting a game and congrats on making the top 10! The sheer amount of content you have packed into the Nokia restrictions within the duration of the jam is nothing short of amazing. The game starts slow but soon I realized I was building a horse empire and I got more consumed trying to keep up with my horses needs. When I first played I let one of my horses health run low for a little too long. Oops.
Farm upgrades are good incentives to continue playing and I have plenty of questions that I would love to get answered through experimenting in game. Like could I buy a horse, train them, and sell them for a higher price? Or wondering what kind of events the Levada opens up and does that net me more money? These question keep me playing to find out!
Between the grooming animations, differences in horse breed sprites when they're out walking, and using the old-school text input method, the attention to detail was very impressive. The artwork is clean and easy to understand. Navigating the menus was pretty intuitive once I got used to it.
I actually found a bug I didn't encounter before. Trying to feed the horse vitamins and yummies you don't own ends up crashing the game. It wasn't a big deal since the autosaves came in clutch! Super convenient feature and its fun to know I could come back and pick up where I left off at any time!
Even writing this has taken me more time than it should've because my horses keep needing my attention lol. Good work and thanks for participating!
