The voice over is amazing :D I sadly died of exhaustion, wish that UI Element was bigger and would tell me when it runs out. But overall a great game :3~

Nice game ! I really loved the sound design, did you use your own voices to make them ? The graphics are also very clean and neat, it does the job. Well done for accomplishing this in such a short time !

@kanonix Thank you ! I used my own voice and a friend's one! Thank you for playing !!

Interesting idea, I liked the voice acting and the graphics where very clean. I felt like there was a flaw in the game loop though. Tomatoes would sell for 5 gold and give 5 energy, but it would cost 5 energy to pick them, so due to losing energy throughout the day they would end up as an energy deficit. I found the only way to win was to never pick tomatoes unless I had to, and instead skip them entirely and hope for eggplants and carrots. Theres a fun idle in here if you continue to explore it. More upgrades, maybe you can hire a farm hand to help for exampple. Nice work

It was realy fun too play this game!

That was the most shocking intro I've ever seen in a jam game :) I easily understood the logic in my first try and survived quite long. Polished graphics and smooth gameplay are cool. However, it would be awesome if there was an energy alarm (and a money alarm as well). In a moment of inattention, you suddenly die :)

Good job :ok_hand:

Great job on the cutscene and camerawork -- really cracked me up!! Having to track all the crops, money, and your health ends up challenging and fun.

This has a good frantic feel for it, as it is farming for your life. There seems to be a critical glitch however. Whenever I tried to eat and eggplant for energy, as I could never keep up the rapidly depleting gauge, I would get an instant game over saying I ran out of money. I tried it again several times to make sure I was not running out of time, and I got the same message only from eating eggplant. I could not reach the 100 gold goal as I could never keep up enough energy to reach the end. There is also a rather helpful error where seeds carry over after death. The story is very funny, and clean graphics make it nice to look at. The buttons could match the theme more. I see some good potential in this!

Really surprised me to see this level of graphics, animation, sound fx and voice over aswell as a solid game.

I found the game to be a little harsh but that fits the theme of the game.

Really awesome job.

This is a very fun game. I enjoyed farming and it was an interesting concept. :)

Cool idea. Good execution(no pun intended). A bigger alarm that you are going to die or run out of money might make it more fun.

Good job.

Really enjoyed the voice over. The game was way harder than I thought it was going to be given the gameplay, but that just made me end up playing it more times.

Very nice intro and interesting game. The intro raises the expectations :). Did you do all the art??

Great job on the ambient sounds and the voice acting. The art was also very good. The gameplay itself was simple yet very fun. My only critique would be that RNG either makes this game difficult or exceedingly easy; I had a mix of tomatoes and carrots on my first couple of playthroughs and failed while learning the energy system, and then on my third playthrough it was a breeze because it was practically raining eggplants. Great job.

I had a lot of fun playing this game, thank you for your submission.
