A zoom/dezoom function would have been so cool in my opinion !
But anyway, i liked it ! :)

Ooof... the controls are pretty awkward, makes it quite tricky to get in to. The concept's cool, but maybe you need some milestones on the way to that pony.

I planted the plants but couldn't figure out how to swap to the watering can and if there's a restart button when the game is over? I haven't rated it and will try again later :)

@unit684 As described in controls: [ ] to move throuogh inventory. Unfortunately there is no restart, you have to manually do it ;)

I managed to place the plant and grow it but I can't navigate through my inventory. I tried to harvest but the selection is stuck on the seed. So couldn't so much. The game control was smooth and the audio was good too. Keep it up.

This was really fun, it'd be nice to have some visual indicator that time is running and the game isn't just paused, and the controls are a bit fiddly, to switch items use [ and ] keys

Cool concept, took me a while to get used to the controls and figure out what to do next.
Anyway, The brackets "[" & "]" is used to switch active inventory. Just thought I'd mention it since it isn't listed in the description.

Nice graphics, awful controls

Controls are really tricky but the concept itself is cool and interesting. Good work.

Seems nice, but the controls are too tricky, it's too hard to play to be fun. It's bad, the game has a good amount of content. Good work !

I didn`t like the controls but the game concept is nice. I liked the game over screen although its unfortunate that you cannot restart the game

This is fun and I believe it has the potential to satisfy people who crave for farming game

themonsterfromthedeep 2016-12-13 19:23

I found that it was really slow to get going in this game. I never even got a pickaxe before I got killed. :( Maybe I'll try again later, though.

Graphics are pretty cool.

Music, of course, would be an improvement.

Sorry about forgetting to write about navigating through the inventory. I wrote that after 16 hours of struggle second day. I should think of writting decription along writting the game, not at the end of the kam itself ;). Fixed description. You can do that of course with [ ]

The gameplay looks like the typical farming game with a more polemic theme over it. Not very innovative, but it has its merits to be made in only a weekend

The problem is the control scheme. It is not only confusing but also but also don't work with all the keyboards (The Spanish keyboard don't have [ ] keys)

automatonvx 2016-12-13 19:37

I like the concept - in case any one is wondering '[' ']' are the controls to change current item - I ended up grepping the source to figure that out. Damn i couldn't make money fast enough to get the gun to take out the cop

tommarx69 2016-12-13 19:39

Hi !
Your game doesn't work on my OS X 10.10.
Error : http://pastebin.com/csZ4tHc7

c2v4 2016-12-13 19:42

@tommarx69 Oh my. This is a problem of LibGDX. I was not able to check it on all systems/hardawares.

c2v4 2016-12-13 19:43

@Nexus64 Didn't know about that one, nice lesson ;)

hijomo 2016-12-13 19:52

The concept is solid. The controls are clunky.

unit684 2016-12-13 21:39

Nice concept and well executed, a bit of tweaking and I could see myself playing quite a bit of this! Hard to fight the enemies though, it seemed they were so quick I couldn't swap to the gun and shoot them in time.

wdebowicz 2016-12-14 19:26

After you get familiar with controls, it's more and more fun! good entry! I hope police will not find you ;-)

acotis 2016-12-20 23:17

Two things made this game frustrating to me: the window size (too big to fit on my screen, not resizable) and the sheer number of buttons that control the game. I like the concept of walking around growing a farm in various ways, but I couldn't get into it because of that.
