| Jan 9 19:54:03 | Farm to Table: Wizard Edition | ♥ 1 | The tutorial is quite good indeed. I did also have the sizing problem though so I couldn't actually get to things to actually play. Do let me know if it gets correct and I'll come back and rate! | |
| Jan 9 20:01:02 | 6m 59s | Apples of Agony | ♥ 2 | Nice! I agree a timer from the start would be nice, but fun little game! |
| Jan 9 20:17:11 | 16m 09s | Heartvest | ♥ 1 | Love the pun in the name, heh. Had some issues with the controls at first but then it started working so not sure if it was just me or what, couldn't replicate it. Text for the lose condition was a bit smooshed, was hard to say if it was 10 or 100. |
| Jan 9 20:26:23 | 9m 12s | Midnight Harvest | ♥ 1 | I was terrible at this, but I enjoyed it! The tilt was a bit wonky, I feel, and the "you got the right mushroom" sound seems a bit flat, but great idea, well executed. |
| Jan 9 21:09:09 | 42m 46s | Happy Farm | ♥ 1 | Cool cookie clicker sort of vibe, but it felt really slow to me, and the upgrades seemed not to be terribly impactful. Some more transparency would be nice, like more info on if there is a limit to how much fruit can sit waiting, and how much you have waiting. Also, maybe have it increase the speed of the truck to click on the crops to load them, so there is something besides click on the crops to worry about. Sorry if the above seems harsh, but just saw some areas it could improve. I really liked the work you did here! |
| Jan 9 23:13:31 | 2h 04m | Just Another Farming Day! | ♥ 3 | Pretty solid! I do wish there was a way that you could skip forward a bit after restarting. Sound, especially music, is great, and the loop is good! |
| Jan 9 23:45:33 | 32m 02s | Frantic Farming | ♥ 1 | Nice! Simple but smooth. I love the feel of the controls, just slightly confusing but definitely masterable. I gotta say things escalated quickly, though, just straight to nukes. oof. |
| Jan 9 23:50:41 | 5m 08s | Seeds of Civilisation | ♥ 3 | Really cool idea! I think there is a lot of room to expand this idea too. I love how many puzzles you came up with using the base concept, though! I did have a bit of trouble with the controls but I've never been good at asteroids. I will say the few times pushing was needed I had a hard time with it. |
| Jan 10 00:19:46 | 29m 05s | Arrrrrvest! | ♥ 2 | My son and I had a lot of fun with this! I think the harvesting theme could be better integrated (we didn't even realize it was a thing until our second playthrough) Also we played the itch version but there was a bug where at the start of the node selection it would error out and auto move to the next battle. We didn't get to fight the last boss as a result. Anyway, great stuff! |
| Jan 10 00:26:06 | 6m 20s | Energy Harvest | ♥ 0 | The camera was the true enemy here. But I love the idea for the control scheme! |
| Jan 10 00:28:22 | 2m 16s | Planetary Planter | ♥ 1 | Came down here to second the HTML link is down |
| Jan 10 00:42:45 | 14m 23s | Nomad Miner | ♥ 2 | Yeah, game didn't load for me, sorry. let me know if you get a working version up and I'll take a look! |
| Jan 10 01:02:27 | 19m 42s | The Dust Harvest | ♥ 2 | I liked the concept but I was having a hard time. I am still not sure what the jump drive does (it seems to just restart the game) but once I learned I could pick up monkey dusk I started to have a much better time, heh. |
| Jan 10 01:19:34 | 17m 07s | FloraShift | ♥ 2 | This is a real cool puzzler! Could use a bit of an intro, though I think I figured it out eventually! |
| Jan 10 01:43:18 | 23m 44s | Hello User | ♥ 3 | Took me way too long to get past the first puzzle, heh. Really captured the feeling of having a spyware infested computer in the early 2000s, heh. |
| Jan 10 03:09:24 | 1h 26m | GRIM REAPER: Harvester of Souls | ♥ 1 | I did it! 82 on hard! I had a lot of fun with this. I wish there were some more options, but what is here is solid! Great job! |
| Jan 10 03:18:37 | 9m 13s | Speed Wheat | ♥ 0 | Like the graphics a lot and the gameplay is fast paced and easy to understand. Definitely would like to see more complications, but really enjoyed it. |
| Jan 10 04:28:22 | 1h 09m | Samhain | ♥ 1 | Very nice one! Definitely could use something to change it up a bit but the sounds are great and the action is fun. I will say with the range on the chains I didn't see much point in moving, besides getting out of the holy light so I could see better, though perhaps that was the idea! |
| Jan 10 04:30:32 | 2m 10s | THE HARVESTING | ♥ 1 | Hmm....I got a 404 trying to pull it up here, is that just me? It ran on itch though |
| Jan 10 04:49:22 | 18m 50s | The Crystallographer | ♥ 1 | I enjoyed this! Would be cool to see some sort of more puzzley challenges using this system, somehow. |
| Jan 11 00:24:31 | 19h 35m | URSA MAIOR | ♥ 2 | Nice story! A few minor errors and some misses on the rhymes, but super cute and funny! |
| Jan 11 00:49:32 | 25m 01s | Don't let them bug you | ♥ 2 | Really liked the balance of having to choose when to harvest things! The trick in the third level with no paths really threw me for a loop! |
| Jan 11 01:09:21 | 19m 49s | Hooked (Online) | ♥ 1 | Worked fine for me but I didn't get to see any other players unfortunately. Felt like the upgrades were pretty slow, and I was a bit disappointed the puddle didn't have cool secret fish, but everything worked and I liked the art style! |
| Jan 11 19:06:27 | 17h 57m | A Conversation With A Stranger | ♥ 1 | I dedicated myself to a certain approach early on and then regretted it later (though I stuck with it). Well written, really enjoyed it! |
| Jan 11 22:13:55 | 3h 07m | Wurmi | ♥ 1 | Wish there was more, but it works great and the ants make a cool add to snake |
| Jan 11 22:30:42 | 16m 47s | Chess The Second | ♥ 1 | Pawns do not that work that way! Otherwise I really liked this, as above, could use a you win screen for sure (and fix pawns!) |
| Jan 12 15:55:30 | 17h 24m | Hi!Waste Tomato | ♥ 0 | I like the concept here, though I honestly there's a bit of a disconnect between the idea that this is a reaper bot and your complete inability to do anything but stand in the way of tomatoes, heh. Not insurmountable, but as it is it doesn't seem to mesh with the narratvie |
| Jan 12 17:01:33 | 1h 06m | Dice Wheat Me | ♥ 2 | So I like the idea here, this is really my type of game! But there is a lot missing, of which I am sure you are aware, heh. - Need a way to attract more farmers. Seems a lot of the upgrades are a bit pointless with otherwise. I know you said you can get them from events, but I didn't see any, and it wouldn't be as satisfying anyway. - Game was too easy until it wasn't I played through year 1 with no major issues, got several bad events but they just lost me a bit of wheat/coins, but then late in year 2 I got a single event that outright killed a pretty leveled up farmer dude. - Nothing to do with resources Maybe add a monthly cost to feed your people? More upgrades that people might actually want? An enemy outside random events? Anyway, I did enjoy playing, just some thoughts on some improvements that you probably have already thought of, heh. Have a great one! ...no idea why it changed all my numbers from above to 1...changed to dashes, heh. |
| Jan 12 19:46:06 | 2h 44m | Harvey the Harvester | ♥ 1 | You have nailed the basics here, it works great! Would love a bit more spice here, beyond just attacks and defense. |
| Jan 12 19:57:10 | 11m 04s | Hustle Harvest | ♥ 1 | I had a rough time understanding how to get this to work, probably a me issue. I do really like the idea of building a life flow chart, though...kind reminded me of cult simulator? |
| Jan 12 21:09:11 | 1h 12m | DatenKraken | ♥ 4 | I liked this a lot! Cool idea, well executed! Would like to see a version with some more twists if time ever allows for you! |
| Jan 13 01:40:56 | 4h 31m | Junkship | ♥ 1 | THis was lots of fun! I pelted off toward galactic southeast and just held it down till the stars were a blur, heh, not sure I even topped out on the speed. |
| Jan 13 23:25:47 | 21h 44m | Harvestigator: An IRS Tax Auditing Game | ♥ 1 | Very funny, voice work was actually decent, and the game was papers pleasey but very well done to be sure. |
| Jan 13 23:36:49 | 11m 02s | Harvey D. Bones | ♥ 1 | Thanks for letting us know what he says it was driving me nuts, heh. FUn pac-alike! The cats are super cute on their scooters! |
| Jan 19 14:50:31 | 135h 13m | Harvest is coming | ♥ 1 | I enjoyed this a lot! Most of my critiques have already been said up top, but I do have a different suggestion that I haven't seen others make, and that would be to have some up notes in the piece. Right now it's all down, right from the start. It would help sell the relationship if we got to see a bit of this family in better times, I think. Even if it was just on a start screen. Think of the impact of seeing them happy, then hitting start game and it cuts to the bleak winter, for example. |
| Jan 19 16:04:28 | 1h 13m | Farming but also Flight Simulator 2023 | ♥ 2 | It was tough with a keyboard, I agree. But you did warn us at least, heh. I will say there were sometimes I felt as though I had pressed the flight button and it didn't go off. Also, for keyboard play at least it would be nice to be able to have flight be press and hold. |
| Jan 21 17:24:24 | 49h 19m | Harvest Village | ♥ 2 | That queen should thank me, that is WAAAAY too much blood for one person, heh. Fun little game! Liked the mechanic of the shield guys being bloodbags you have to break down a bit to harvest |
| Jan 26 15:36:33 | 118h 12m | Five Finger Copper Shopper | ♥ 1 | I got the good ending but to be fair I did ruin their front door for no reason so I'm not exactly a peach. Fun concept! Most I'd just say be a bit more forgiving on the timer, or have other places to steal from but of course that's about time that I am sure you didn't have, heh. |
