I didn’t understand the hunger or nets mechanics, but I enjoyed the game!
I got 4 x $hungry - 70 = 30 so I guess I want that number as small as possible. But another day I got 4 x $hungry - 82 = 72, so I guess going fast made me more hungry? I feel like when I do better, that number gets higher. One day I got 18 - $new_nets = 20 which really confused me! Did I sell nets somehow?
Regardless, I really like the mechanic of switching between going slow for easier harvest aiming to going fast to get more done in one day. I’m not sure there’s much pressure to go fast, but I want to do it anyway.
I played with gamepad’s analog stick which made it a bit imprecise to vary position without changing speed, but I found it easier to follow the kelp with the analog than the dpad.
Feels like cutting everything flat was a good strategy since it makes future days easier (but they don’t all grow back at the same rate, which is smart). However, maybe there’s a downside to cutting the dark green parts that I wasn’t seeing. Reading the description, I see why the blades numbers were on the $new_nets line, but I still don’t understand that math.
Music is great!
I won my run! Kelp Harvested: 269, 79. Nets broken: 1.
