| Jan 25 22:20:32 | GAKKI the Water Harvester | ♥ 1 | Such a cute entry! I love the push to really explore the map and look for all the little pieces to collect, great gameplay for a simple concept! | |
| Jan 25 22:30:44 | 10m 12s | Sky's Endless | ♥ 1 | Seems like a simple concept at first glance but there's actually a lot of content here! Likewise took a while to figure it out but once you get the hang of it, it's great how much you can get out of the gameplay. |
| Jan 25 22:39:55 | 9m 11s | Soul Trapper | ♥ 1 | Once I figured out the left shift/left alt dilemma, boy howdy what a good time. Truly this game has brought me so much joy, well done. |
| Jan 25 23:06:42 | 26m 47s | Forest Walk | ♥ 1 | Pretty great start honestly! A few more sound effects (like mushroom collecting, maybe gem activation) and maybe lining up the movement with how the trees are spaced might make it a little less jerky, but overall fun and effective! |
| Jan 25 23:10:15 | 3m 33s | Fruit Harvest | ♥ 1 | A game of simple fun, nice idea that slots into the 'harvest' theme quite well. Would also have loved some music/audio to go with it, particularly splats (always a fun sound to have). |
| Jan 25 23:12:02 | 1m 47s | Harvest Skin | ♥ 0 | Now this is a creative 'harvest' game! Simple concept, quirky, and fun all around. The personalities are a great extra touch. |
| Jan 25 23:19:27 | 7m 25s | Harvest Homes | ♥ 0 | Would have to agree the pacing does feel a little slow and aimless at times, but lots of great work got put into this! |
| Jan 25 23:25:38 | 6m 11s | Shape Orchard | ♥ 1 | Wow absolutely LOVE this entry, one of my favourites by far. The Kandinsky inspiration is so creative and aesthetically pleasing! Would love some kind of ambient music track in the background, I think it would really suit it. The controls do seem to be a bit floaty, but as long as you're ready to hit the spacebar not a huge issue. Really well done! |
| Jan 25 23:29:56 | 4m 18s | Soul Harvester | ♥ 0 | An interesting concept if not a little simplistic, I found the controls to be a bit confusing but not too bad with practice. Creative idea for harvest! |
| Jan 25 23:48:18 | 18m 22s | It was all for the Tuna | ♥ 1 | Absolutely adore this game, it's so well-done. I can't believe it was a 72-hour project! Great take on the 'harvest' theme. The art and visuals are wonderful. The music and sound were nice but could get a bit repetitive after a while, and the boat movements seem to get choppier the more you upgrade. But wow, truly an incredible entry! |
| Jan 26 06:30:02 | 6h 41m | Seed Your Weed | ♥ 1 | Very impressive for a first time solo work! Agreed that a list of objectives would be helpful in driving the player towards the task more quickly. I think maybe having faster movement might have been nice as well. Love kicking around the yellow blocks and the message on the end screen. Well done! |
| Jan 26 06:33:53 | 3m 51s | swim on, girl | ♥ 0 | Even though it's simple, I kind of love it for that. If you really wanted to add a level of complexity, maybe control how much fish food there is to distribute? Then the player really has to time the feeding right and be a bit more strategic about it. The art is adorable and the music is super cute, great job! |
| Jan 26 06:45:00 | 11m 07s | Imma Head Out | ♥ 1 | Love the sense of humour and the take on the theme! This one genuinely had me trying again and again, it's pretty easy to get addicted to. |
| Jan 26 06:55:38 | 10m 38s | Apothecary | ♥ 1 | Love games like this, I love how you incorporated the concept of harvesting but put a unique spin on it! It did take a little bit to figure out the order of making things in the cauldron but the description under the game really helped. Very fun! |
| Jan 26 07:00:23 | 4m 45s | The Soul Machine | ♥ 0 | The transition between heavy guitar music while getting swarmed by enemies and the muzak in the basement, just chilling in a chair, was incredibly hilarious to me. Very cool concept, though it can be difficult to balance the different enemy attacks without just bailing to the basement. Great visuals & sound! |
| Jan 26 07:03:58 | 3m 35s | Herfst | ♥ 1 | Absolutely love the art style and the music. Great innovative game for the theme, I have a bias towards these funky/quirky kind of games. Incredibly well done, thanks for a memorable game! |
| Jan 26 07:15:24 | 11m 26s | Manshroom Harvest | ♥ 0 | It was far too late in the evening for me to play this... can't deny it's creative though.. cue the nightmares |
| Jan 26 07:20:14 | 4m 50s | Sky Harvest | ♥ 0 | This is definitely not the kind of game I'm good at but boy, was it hard to quit playing. I would say the hitboxes can be a bit rough to land on and I think the direction line could use a gauge to know when it will hit either edge. But impressive product for one afternoon of work! |
| Jan 26 07:24:22 | 4m 08s | Corn Horror Harvest | ♥ 0 | Great take on the theme and pretty fun gameplay! Sometimes the movement and animations combined could make it a little hard to tell exactly where the scythe was swinging, but overall a unique and enjoyable entry! |
| Jan 26 07:28:07 | 3m 45s | The Ballad of Eric Hernandez, Cattle Rancher | ♥ 1 | Simply put, a moo-sterpiece, through and through. |
| Jan 26 07:35:51 | 7m 44s | Orchard Alchemy | ♥ 1 | Beautifully designed and the music is so soothing. Very clever use of these mechanics for a harvest theme! Impressive compo! |
| Jan 26 07:41:39 | 5m 48s | Watermelon Rush! | ♥ 1 | Nice integration of a TD with the theme! My only gripe would be with some of the fonts/colours used, it can be hard to read or see what's going on with some of the greens and browns especially. But overall great! |
| Jan 26 07:45:53 | 4m 14s | A Small Village | ♥ 1 | Very nice aesthetically, would love some audio to go with it! Occasionally the enemy spawn could be a bit overwhelming and it takes a while to get the hang of how the dragging mechanic works, but overall simple and entertaining! |
| Jan 26 07:49:26 | 3m 33s | Let's get this bread | ♥ 0 | 10/10, would bread again |
| Jan 26 07:55:26 | 6m 00s | Crop Circle | ♥ 0 | Incredibly clean work for a solo effort, very impressive! It can be a bit tough to distinguish the powerups from the ones with negative effects but overall great! |
| Jan 26 07:59:56 | 4m 30s | None of your beesness! | ♥ 1 | Very cute idea for the theme! I did have a couple issues where the game would stop responding and I had to reboot it. Cool Minesweeper homage though! |
| Jan 26 08:06:47 | 6m 51s | Pipeline Defender | ♥ 0 | Love the animation style and the sound! It's definitely tough as a single player, especially before the screen begins to zoom out. The enemies coming from the left can be tough to hit in time. Great starting point though, this could become something really great! |
| Jan 26 08:13:44 | 6m 57s | Harvest Swarm | ♥ 0 | Nostalgic vibes and cool concept for harvest! The graphic showing what is equipped is a little hard to make out but doesn't take too long to get the hang of it. Love the style! |
| Jan 26 20:19:27 | 12h 05m | Explosive harvest | ♥ 1 | Love the humour and creativity of this one, the shooting sounds are top-notch. |
| Jan 26 20:43:17 | 23m 50s | It's Corn! | ♥ 1 | Incredibly polished work, well done using the tools available to you. It's a really impressive entry and I'm so glad someone incorporated that song into this theme. |
| Jan 26 20:54:43 | 11m 26s | Apples of Agony | ♥ 1 | Simple but enjoyable concept! The little happy words of encouragement from the tree were a nice touch, and yeah definitely a game to test the moral compass. Great duality with that! |
| Jan 26 22:29:32 | 1h 34m | Lil Death | ♥ 1 | I can definitely see how a controller would make this a little easier to control, I'm useless when it comes to z-x-c keys (spoiled by too much WASD I suppose). That being said, the visuals are incredible, the sound is incredibly satisfying, and the gameplay makes you want to keep trying again and again! I would agree that a health bar/counter would be more enjoyable than insta-death, but super impressive compo work! |
| Jan 26 22:54:59 | 25m 27s | Gloomy Harvester | ♥ 0 | Gloomy indeed, the atmosphere was very grim - well done on that! It was a bit confusing as to how you're supposed to plant seeds, but also keep exploring, but also harvest. It took a few restarts to get the hang of it and avoid the monster. Great effort nonetheless! |
| Jan 26 23:00:40 | 5m 41s | WoodAndStuff | ♥ 1 | Love the sound effects and the visuals. It's fun to stand below a tree as it falls down around you. Clean and simple! |
| Jan 26 23:19:15 | 18m 35s | Hooked (Online) | ♥ 1 | It's a really great start! It does take quite a while to rack up enough fish/money for the upgrades past a certain point, but it's the start of something that could be even better with time. Nice art, would love some sound to go with it, too! |
| Jan 26 23:22:34 | 3m 19s | Harvest Souls | ♥ 0 | Really cute start to a fun idea! It would be nice to have more levels and more function for the soul-throwing, but the product provided looks great. |
| Jan 26 23:28:46 | 6m 12s | The Crystallographer | ♥ 0 | A simple concept but so replayable and soooo nice to look at. Well done! |
| Jan 26 23:29:22 | 36s | Asteroid Rush | ♥ 0 | So fun all around, from the sound effects to the concept to the art style. Great job! |
| Jan 26 23:46:25 | 17m 03s | Petra Rabbit's Carrot Chase | ♥ 1 | That theme is going to be stuck in my head now... very cute overall! |
| Jan 26 23:58:50 | 12m 25s | Yamsylvania | ♥ 0 | Really polished entry and so much fun to play. It took a little while to figure out how to sell the yams and I couldn't help but often be overrun by enemies (but this only made me want to play more). Great sound and visuals! |
| Jan 27 00:20:52 | 22m 02s | The Dark Forest and the Memories of Harvest, of One Autumn's Days | ♥ 1 | Wow. Truly just wow. My favourite by far. Well done. |
| Jan 27 04:05:19 | 3h 44m | Shapely units | ♥ 0 | Really cool visually and with audio, but it can be a bit difficult to control all three shapes in an efficient way. Great fun to play! |
| Jan 27 04:16:14 | 10m 55s | Evergreen 2 | ♥ 2 | A really great entry! Love the graphics and the world. Sometimes it could be jarring between the movement speed from the arrow keys and the view speed with the mouse, but it just took some getting used to. Chasing apples was particularly funny, not sure why but I really enjoyed it. |
| Jan 27 04:24:43 | 8m 29s | Harvest Village | ♥ 3 | Ooooo this is so fun!! Genuinely took me a while to stop playing, fantastic job - visuals, music, mood, and great fit for the theme! |
| Jan 27 04:27:52 | 3m 09s | Catalyst | ♥ 0 | I love this idea! Very different than pretty much any of the other ones I've tried so far. I love these kinds of logic/sequence games and you fit it so well to the theme! |
| Jan 27 04:46:49 | 18m 57s | Harvest Shroom | ♥ 1 | Great entry! It could be a little difficult to figure out what the different mushroom effects/bars meant but it lends to replaying and trying new combinations. Love the art style and the music! |
