Jan 9 07:55:40 Chess The Second ♥ 2 That's a hell of an idea, I love it. Seems like a simple combination, but it works so well. I had a really good time. The AI was pretty well executed, I was really surprised. Maybe the only thing that I would change is the colors of player and enemy. Because I was a bit confused that my colour is red and enemy is green. You know, like usually it's the other way around. But that's really just a minor detail. Other than that I freaking loved it :)
Jan 9 08:05:56 10m 16s The Marketer's Dream ♥ 2 I'm still laughing while writing this review. This game is the reason why I always play and rate even "not so impressive looking" games. Because you never know what gem you can find. I don't want to say that you game looks bad, NOT AT ALL, but objectively speaking graphics is not the strongest point in this game. To my surprise I was shocked how detailed and well made the game is. It's entertaining, and most importantly it's freaking funny. Sound effects, music and voice acting is from another planet, absolutely loved it. I honestly expected to be just one-screen haggling simulator, and was really pleasantly surprised to see other options like beach digging for treasure. Haha, loved that one. BEEP BEEP :)
Jan 9 08:11:12 5m 16s Fields of Fortune ♥ 1 Let's start with the obvious - the Graphics are stellar (literally haha). Gameplay seems simple but is actually pretty fun, I enjoyed discovering new cards and figuring out combos. The only downside for me was really just the fact that you can't play vs AI, because currently I don't have my wife around to play with haha. But that's just my personal problem, so it affect my rating. Overall, pretty solid entry. Sweet music and amazing graphics.
Jan 9 08:19:09 7m 57s Brains ♥ 1 Hello Jirko :) Great game as always. I really enjoyed the mechanics, it is harder than it seems. Appreciate the hints that pop up after you get stuck a bit longer. Graphics and sounds are amazing as always. Overall, pretty solid game that feels like a full release, not a COMPO.
Jan 9 08:27:03 7m 54s Trash Panda ♥ 2 What a cute game. I really enjoyed the atmosphere of the pretty 3D night environments. Especially the details like inside of the house, having bed, furniture and a cozy fireplace. These are the kinds of details that make a good experience, at least for me. The gameplay was rather simple, but simple walking around and collecting things was enough for me to enjoy it. I'm glad you went for a 3D game, as it feels like it adds much more to the mood of the game, in comparison if you did a 2D. The only downside is the lack of music or sounds. Just some wind and crickets would be enough, to add to the night atmosphere. But overall pretty sweet and nice game :)
Jan 9 08:29:00 1m 57s Crimes of the Suture ♥ 1 I'm sorry I can't run the game :( Maybe some problem with the link? Error: Failed to read the 'serviceWorker' property from 'Navigator': Service worker is disabled because the context is sandboxed and lacks the 'allow-same-origin' flag.
Jan 9 08:34:16 5m 16s Harvest Souls ♥ 1 Nice idea for a game, but it was VERY short. It took me really just like 30 seconds haha. Besides the short level, the gameplay is really smooth and fun. I would appreciate maybe more enemies and stuff, but I liked the throwing of the souls, nice little mechanic. Maybe it would be cool to use those souls as projectiles, or play basketball with them haha. Graphics and animations are amazing. It looks like a full released game.
Jan 9 09:16:15 41m 59s Chicken Feast ♥ 1 Pretty solid entry! Pros: Beautiful graphics, fun gameplay, ideal pacing for a LD game, vibrant environments and positive mood Cons: No sound, a bit clunky movement, especially when turning.
Jan 9 10:11:41 55m 26s Under Cow-ver ♥ 1 Cute little game. I know the assets weren't yours, but still, good choice of graphics. Gameplay is fun, I like the idea of sneaking around not getting caught by cows haha.
Jan 9 10:27:29 15m 48s Crop Circle ♥ 1 666 points, that's a sign, but I don't know what it means haha! Gameplay is really more fun than I had expected. Don't know why but it reminds me of classic NES games. Not because of the graphics or sounds, but the gameplay, is just so simple yet so much fun! Obviously, the graphics are astonishing, one of the best I've seen so far. Sound effects are on point and the audio-visual response to the player is absolutely perfect. One of my favorites so far!
Jan 9 10:30:51 3m 22s Forked Up ♥ 1 Pretty nice little gem! I like the GB aesthetics and how you executed it. The gameplay itself is rather simple, but more than enough for a Ludum Dare entry. As for me, it was a pleasant experience.
Jan 9 10:35:58 5m 07s Yamsylvania ♥ 1 I like the combination of Vampire survivors and harvesting crops. This is one of those perfect Ludum Dare games, when the gameplay is not long enough to take much of your time, but fun enough to keep you engaged. Maybe more animations would be cool to see the enemies burst into flames or something, but other than that, pretty sweet game :)
Jan 9 10:45:55 9m 57s Boar'd'Hell ♥ 1 I've seen your posts during the weekend and didn't really think much of it. The game seems simple on screenshots, but hell it's challenging and fun! I really enjoyed it. There are basically four levels of gameplay: - Moving tractor - Moving combine - Aiming combine's crops shooting - Honking away those GOD DAMN PIGS! So far it is my favorite game :) My score: It's not much, but it's an honest work. Snímek obrazovky 2023-01-09 114229.png
Jan 9 10:50:54 4m 59s HELLGATE HARVEST ♥ 3 Not a fan of rhytm games, but I have to say, yours is well executed and the gameplay is smoother than I would expect. Also the audio-visual part is just so well made :)
Jan 9 10:56:43 5m 49s Lunaculture ♥ 2 I love these sandbox LD entries! Overall I really enjoyed this game. The gameplay is simple, but fun, harvesting your crops felt very satisfying, reminding me of my favorite game Stardew Valley. The 3D graphics are well made. Maybe some audio visual response would be appreciated, but that's not a big deal. HUGE PLUS for the zoom in and out option, it sounds like a small thing, but to me this kind of details is very appreciated.
Jan 9 11:17:36 20m 53s Chihuahua Space Harvest ♥ 1 My initial thoughts were like "Ok this is another platformer shooter". And I was amazed how well done and polished the game was. Loved the crafting system, I didn't expect this game to be so deep. And absolutely adored the physics and control response mechanics. The shooting recoil and flying around with the jatpack felt so smooth and satisfying. I think the only thing I would change would be the time between enemy waves. I understand that it's supposed to be noob friendly, but I always had like 40 seconds of just sitting and waiting. But that's just a minor thing. Overall very well done game, with nice cute graphics and responsive controls.
Jan 9 12:07:57 50m 21s The Gold'n Apples ♥ 1 Nice and relaxing experience. I see that you opted Graphics out, but I will at least say that it was a great artistic choice for such a game to get this kind of asset pack. The gameplay is simple, but fun and relaxing and it works well in your game :)
Jan 9 14:14:42 2h 06m Gun Harvester ♥ 1 Wow, this is the most polished and fun game I've played so far. If you gave me to play this game and I didn't know it's from LD jam, I would think it's a full release. The audio visual response is amazing, the gameplay loop is engaging, and had I had more time I would like to play more of this. Graphics are sounds are sweet and charming. I really liked the idea that you basically grow your own bosses haha. I can totally imagine playing this even on my phone. Fun and challenging experience :) My Noob Score: Snímek obrazovky 2023-01-09 151042.png
Jan 9 14:34:24 19m 42s Harvest Season ♥ 0 Seriously, this is an incredible game on its own, more so if you made this in only 48 hours! First fall, the atmosphere and sounds effects are just so good. If I didn't it's an LD game, I would think it's some kind of PS1 horror game demo haha. As a huge PS1 fan this was right up my alley. Great entry, in fact one of the best I've played. I think the only thing that I would change was that VHS effect, it felt a bit too strong, but maybe that's just my bad eyesight.
Jan 9 15:02:53 28m 29s Harvest Heist ♥ 0 I'm afraid you forgot to share the links my friend :)
Jan 9 15:09:03 6m 10s Big Broccoli ♥ 1 SORRY MOM I didn't make it to the Broccoli! This was more fun than I had expected. The pace was a bit slow, maybe it would be cool to make everything a bit faster like 50%, but that's just a minor detail :) Overall pretty solid game, I liked the Vampire Survivors mechanics, very entertaining :)
Jan 9 15:16:44 7m 41s Veggie Voyager ♥ 1 I freaking loved them wobbly guys haha! From physics to sound effects, this is one hell of a fun game. I never played Human Fall Flat, but I imagine this is what it feels like. Now thanks to you I may actually consider buying that game haha. It's really cute and fun, don't know what else to say. I haven't find any negatives. Maybe just a little one, and that is camera. Sometimes it is a bit clunky when trying to move the camera around, but nothing game breaking.
Jan 9 15:28:38 11m 54s Sacred Harvest ♥ 1 As a fan of oldschool text games I really enjoyed your entry. It was an interesting experience, especially after playing all the farming and action games today haha. Anyway, I enjoyed it, I really liked the sound effects which added A LOT of atmosphere to a simple text based game. The story was well written and intriguing.
Jan 9 15:43:17 14m 39s The Ballad of Eric Hernandez, Cattle Rancher ♥ 3 This is definitely one of the games ever made. Made me genuinely laugh.
Jan 9 15:56:28 13m 11s Souls harvest ♥ 1 I'm afraid you forgot to share the link guys :)
Jan 9 15:57:17 49s It was all for the Tuna ♥ 1 The link required a password. Can't access your Itchio page :(
Jan 9 16:06:27 9m 10s Boxed In ♥ 2 This was WAY more fun that I had expected! The gameplay loop (literally haha), is very simple but so entertaining and it kept me going for a quite a long time. I really love the use of the DVD logo meme, haha it's so original and it fits your game idea so well. Freaking love it. Maybe the only thing I would change is that it would be great to also have some kind of sprint/dash ability, because sometimes it is impossible to dodge the logo with a simple jump. Alsmo, I'm not sure if I missed the "harvest" theme, or if it's not included. It's ok if you didn't use it, I'm just asking in case I missed something :)
Jan 9 16:17:29 11m 02s Veggie Survivor ♥ 2 Cool and most importantly challenging game. I liked it, it was simple but fun. I would change only maybe one thing. It would be great to have some kind of indicator or timer of when the weapon will strike. Because this way it was really hard to time my strikes against coming enemies. But that's just me being a noob haha. Overall pretty solid entry guys :) contragulations
Jan 9 21:24:01 5h 06m Feeding Time at the Church of the Cosmic Void ♥ 1 Hi Alex. What to say? Another amazing entry! The graphics are obviously stellar, gameplay is imaginative and fun as hell. I love to command the little cute piggy around! Anyway, overall one hell of a good game, I'm glad you joined this time :) PS: Is the Cosmic Void an easter egg/reference to our dear pixel art colleague from Twitter? Not sure if you know her.
Jan 10 10:22:11 12h 58m Grave Harvest ♥ 8 This was a great game! I didn't expect it to have so many details. Yes, the gameplay was rather simple, but the atmosphere and graphics really made it up for it. What I liked the most was the aesthetics of the Halloween-like graveyard. Cool animations too :) Well done guys.
Jan 10 11:15:11 53m 00s Harvest Stone ♥ 2 This is the first time I'm giving a game 5*. Hell I would even give you 6* if I could for the potato language alone! Where do I start. The game is absolutely over the top Jam game. Complex world, little details that you cared enough to put in (like when the character starts to have bend back after his son died, like wtf, that's RDR2 kind of detail right there). Item usage is so well done a fun to use. Throwing rocks was so fun. Absolutely stellar voice acting performance. The combination of absurd and comedy is so on point. World really feels alive (actually feels more dead, but you get my point). PS: Rest in peace Boyo, I hope you have become a dog somwhere up there in the clouds. PPS: I'm also hungry for some good ol' stone soup.
Jan 10 11:23:50 8m 39s Vegetables Hunter ♥ 2 Not sure if that's intended by your rating options are not available.
Jan 11 09:10:32 21h 46m Catchy ♥ 1 This is a very pretty entry. It's chill, nothing complicated, just go there, fish your fish. But I love the little details that add to the fun. Like moving the sail and playing with the wind mechanic, it seems like a small thing, but it really adds much more fun to the gameplay. The graphics are definitely one of the best I've seen so far. Again, simple, but well made in its own way. I love the "old map" aesthetic. Good job!
Jan 11 12:50:38 3h 40m Shroomer Caves ♥ 2 This is a REALLY cool game. I can totally imagine playing this on my phone, just chilling on the couch. It feels as a full release. Good job with the physics, movement response, audio visual response is very good too. and the art is just stellar. I can't stress enough how smooth the gameplay is. Really amazing job guys.
Jan 12 13:00:56 24h 10m Harvest is coming ♥ 5 Such a strong experience! As a huge fan (and dev myself) of adventure games, this was a must-play for me. Very strong story, amazing atmosphere and music, cool gameplay elements (such as wood chopping and fishing), and I really liked the little details like changing music and petting the dog. These little details are what makes these games on another level. One of the coolest entries I've played, for sure. Note: I had issues with some of the dialogue windows. It happened to me like three times that either the text was moved to the bottom of the screen, or the dialogue window was completely empty. I think it was just a minor bug and didn't really ruined my gameplay, but I still wanted to let you know about this.
Jan 12 15:45:57 2h 45m Haymaker ♥ 1 This is a very well crafted piece! I had a little bit hard time with the controls, but not because they were bad or it had a bad tutorial, but simply because I didn't spend enough time to master it. So the design is great, it just takes longer to learn the craft. Which means it's complex and fun in the long run! I will definitely get back to your game later, and honestly would love to see this game to become a full release with some campaign or something like that. Loved the audio, the art was amazing the narrator tractor (hehe I made a joke) was cute! Overall, very polished and fun game. One of the most innovative games I've played so far.
Jan 12 22:11:55 6h 25m Oyster Odyssey ♥ 1 Pretty sweet game. I really like the gameplay loop, it is simple but very satisfying. As someone who is afraid of deep water, I felt this game more than others maybe. It was intense, especially with the water sound effects. Pretty good graphics too! Good job on this entry my friend.
Jan 13 15:07:13 16h 55m Wheat harvest paradox ♥ 1 How is this a Jam game? This feels like a god damn PS1 full release. Atmosphere is absolutely awesome, and you are getting my attention for the graphics alone. Gameplay is rather simple, but feels okay.
Jan 17 10:46:48 91h 39m Harvest Swarm ♥ 2 I really love the Gameboy vibes and well done graphics. Music and audio fit well into your game (even though I would personally used some 8bit sounds to fit the GB vibes :) ). The gameplay feels good, I can imagine this being a really good game with some tweaks here and there, but for a Jam entry it is more than enough.
Jan 19 08:55:44 46h 08m Mutant Harvest ♥ 1 I like the idea, even the execution is quite good, however I couldn't dodge the horizontal attacks. I couldn't jump high enough to dodge them. Maybe I was doing something wrong, but because of this I couldn't win the game. Other than that, I liked the graphics and the audio. The backstory is cool and I like the humorous tone of the game. Like I said, it's a cool game, only that dodging mechanic was too hard.
