| Jan 9 23:42:35 | Bamboo Rush | ♥ 1 | Protip for players: by scrolling the game down you'll find a fullscreen mode button, toggling it results in a much more comfortable experience as website rendering does not mess with the game borders. The idea is good, i like the ricocheting. Unfortunately the problem is that the usage of these rounded walls makes your every shot unpredictable, which results in lots of frustration. Graphics are great, i like the colors, wish that there was some soundtrack in the background though. I like that you've experimented with the ricocheting and made all those different rooms, each with their own special properties that bend the gameplay in their own way. Remember not to put that many random factors (I'm mainly talking about rounded walls) at once - the last level is nearly impossible to beat without luck and gargantuan patience. | |
| Jan 10 00:12:44 | 30m 09s | Dr Bentham | ♥ 1 | Woah, the atmosphere of the game is so consistently unnerving, i love it :D I get vibes similar to the first fallout, although gameplay here is much more dynamic, really engaging. Wish that there was some goal to pursue - after a while, altough very entertained, i was confused whether i was playing the game right. Great job, also the how to play menu is so relatable :) |
| Jan 10 23:13:58 | 23h 01m | nut another harvest story | ♥ 3 | The audiovisuals are just beautiful, really love them. Wish that there were more riddles or interactions like with the mice. Slow text wasn't much of an issue, I happily clicked through everything multiple times to see the art and see what my decisions have led to. Great game. |
| Jan 11 00:00:47 | 46m 49s | Harvest Noon | ♥ 1 | Solid gameplay there. Visuals are simple but effective. Hooked me for a lot longer than I thought it would. Super giera men ;) |
| Jan 11 23:49:51 | 23h 49m | Verdant | ♥ 1 | Hey, I've spent almost an hour on this one, it does certainly suck you in. Not really challenging, also the animations after ending can get really long if someone happens to put spinners everywhere (😄). It's also really hard to read if putting one element near other will result in a desired combination, or should the second element be put first, I think that the arrow misleads in some way, would love for it to be clear. Besides that the gameplay is top-notch, there are so many ways a game can be played, love it. It's astounding that you have made all this by yourself, great work! |
| Jan 12 23:07:48 | 23h 17m | Christmas Carols | ♥ 1 | This was even better than the Christmas Philharmonic Orchestra :) The graphics are charming. Wish that there were some audio in the background, also it would be good to be able to end the game before 14:00, I finished every house by 12:00 and had to wait (just nitpicking, not sure if I didn't miss anything though). I like how the houses differ and the characters tell you whether the house is profitable or not, this mechanic definitely has some potential. Overall a pleasant experience, made me think about when I was younger doing the same thing :) |
| Jan 13 00:38:11 | 1h 30m | URSA MAIOR | ♥ 1 | The bear is so cute! Wish that there were more mechanics involved, or perhaps some more stages, though. Really like the writing. |
| Jan 13 13:41:03 | 13h 02m | Hector the Apothecary | ♥ 2 | Yoooo soo cool!! Visuals are sweet, writing has got some humourous depth and I really like it. Gameplay is fire, so fresh. Wish it was more challenging, and it definitely has potential for some more mechanics. The game is possible to beat without getting into fights and I think that most people will beat it that way for the first time (at least i did during my first playthrough), maybe add some herbs only obtainable through fighting? Anyway, that's the first game I'm like https://watch.whatevertinfoil.de/watch?v=ioPt1dY6Pyc in overall on this jam, amazing job !!! |
| Jan 13 14:58:19 | 1h 17m | Expand | ♥ 1 | 188 seasons on my first playthrough! Once you get the copy/paste mechanics the game gets definitely easier and faster. Not much of a gameplay, also some basic CSS would be appreciated instead of raw default HTML elements. Still kind of satisfying, would doom-play during work hours waiting until 5PM :) Edit: that's exactly what i did, new record 99 seasons :) |
| Jan 13 21:44:47 | 6h 46m | My mother told me... | ♥ 1 | Had to replay it multiple times because it kept glitching out, especially after dying. Not mad though, that's the charm of 72h game jams :) The game feels good to play, once you get the dash mechanic (protip: when encountering an enemy dash him sooner than later) you can juke 3 enemies in a row, extremely satisfying, you could add some combo meter to explore this further. I did not expect this ending at all, nice picture and also explains the moody tone of background music :) |
| Jan 13 22:53:52 | 1h 09m | Cursor Farm | ♥ 1 | I became a millionaire, unlocked every item, still couldn't get the last reward. I even make 1,2,1,2 because I thought it may now award me for bravery instead of restart but that wasnt it, guess someone else will need to find out the secret :) wish that the game progressed faster at the beginning. very nice :) |
| Jan 14 17:16:16 | 18h 22m | Fall's Tome | ♥ 2 | The atmosphere and the graphics are very impressive. Flipping through the notebook wasn't that bad at all for me, it adds some immersion actually. The nenuphars were the hardest to locate as they are only in one location (at least I only found them near the silo), they weren't in the lake next to the "bench behind the lone tree", which made me think that this is some different kind of nenuphar I'm looking for, and thus was confused. Found them out in the end, so no problem, just took more time :) Also all these buildings tempt with low-positioned roofs and tractors near them allowing for a quick parkour action, yet they do not hide anything (at least i didn't find anything. Bear in mind that it isn't bad or anything, just saying :) ). Overall really nice game, the mood is top-notch. |
| Jan 15 16:55:16 | 23h 39m | Elonkorjuu - Live Harvest | ♥ 2 | Great! The base mechanic gives a lot of fun, wish it took the idea even further. Audiovisuals are so consistent. |
| Jan 16 17:09:49 | 24h 14m | The Gold'n Apples | ♥ 1 | Yoo what are these house so scared of? :)) just playin'. For real though, ~~why do I hear raindrops if it's sun outside B)))~~ last one, promise. The game concept is fresh and neat! There's a lot of ways it could be expanded, I really like it. I'd love an undo button though, many times when I placed a tree and realized about a better tactic, or accidentaly placed something wrong. Other than that, it's so good to see unique ideas, congrats :) |
| Jan 16 18:57:56 | 1h 48m | Harvest of Life | ♥ 1 | I did it! I got the good ending! I don't know how though, It's difficult to assume which activity and what amount of it is "righteous", and the game won't give any hints on that. The audiovisuals are OHH YEA. I really like the humour, laughed out loud when I got to the based house because I danced 4 times in a row, and even harder when I did nothing for 3 days and they let me out with the caption "time flies when you're having fun". Respect! |
| Jan 17 00:03:35 | 5h 05m | Harvest Earth | ♥ 1 | Hey, I like it, the minigames look Undertaley :) the overall idea is great, but getting $1000 for the loans takes way too long in my opinion, I've bought every tool and maxed out tanks by the time I reached $300 and for the next 20-30 minutes I had to farm the money, the gameplay became repetitive. Also, is there any way to harvest the heart? I couldn't find the tool for it unfortunately. These are my only complaints, but I've been having a lot of fun discovering the new harvesting methods. I like the stock market mechanics and the fact that it is possible to rearrange the room to my liking. Very cool :) |
| Jan 17 14:32:03 | 14h 28m | Metal Petals | ♥ 0 | The game seems to break itself after destroying some amount of grass, it is possible to finish it on the web version if you try to break as less grass as possible. Maybe the windows executables don't have this behavior, I'm on linux and couldn't open them through wine :( But hey, I really liked the game! Shame that it's not possible to know the whole story right now, i got really invested. Love the idea of gathering the metal flowers in order to fix the items scattered around the map. Visuals are consistent and set the atmosphere right. The story and writing is really impressive. Looking forward to play the fixed version and see it in its entirety :) |
| Jan 18 09:24:25 | 18h 52m | Attack Of The Corn Cutter | ♥ 1 | Ultra hard, especially these nenuphars, however I managed to get past the two scythes when I first encountered them, felt pro B). Really needs some engaging soundtrack in the background, and maybe some more obstacles. The pixelart is cool! Great job! |
| Jan 18 14:01:52 | 4h 37m | The Night Harvest | ♥ 1 | Bana bakapu!!! Bobogop lel dunug lyp kok!! (great game!! really unique concept!!) Dod homa bakom gagagat a jakesulli a gandalf butudut (awesome that you invented a language for a game jam. Cameron and Tolkien would be proud) Deus meus kosmadeus i morele baks (it's challenging but the ending is worth it. The only nitpick I have is that it could be indicated more clearly that the x button needs to be pressed and held in order to harvest the crop, through first few attempts I couldn't quite get what should I do for my energy to increase. But I've had a lot of fun, great game!) |
| Jan 18 23:16:02 | 9h 14m | GAKKI the Water Harvester | ♥ 1 | I like it. Is there a way to get through the lava blocks? These were the only obstacles I couldn't pass no matter how I tried. I like the powerups, wish there were more of them. Congrats, great job for a first time :) |
| Jan 20 00:02:29 | 24h 46m | Golem Problem | ♥ 1 | Really simple yet engaging. I like how the forks stay in the golems. Wish that there were more attacks for the protagonist. Lol'd at the pun on the ending panel, great job :) |
