Very nice game, I jumped out of the world and had a look. Reminds me of Slime Rancher mixed with Cook Server Delicious maybe?

Nice game! It controls very smoothly and the voices and sounds effects are great. The veggie graphics are impressive considering the development time.
I unlocked the fourth patch, but could not find anyone interested in a four-flavour pie... was I just not looking hard enough?
Also I managed to glitch out of the map in the bottom-right, but I got back in via the bottom-left.
A funny little game! good entry
Funny game)
I got a soft spot for music games AND farming games. So this one is actually one of my faves. Here is a video of me playing through the game!

cool concept and pretty fun little game
Nice!
Great job was funny i like it
really great game, and amazing concept! I feel you can build up more on this concept and make a pretty good indie title. I just wish there would be a goal i could work towards instead of just unlocking farming lands
Really Good Job! Keep it up!
another thing, I fell out of the map :/ Untitled.png
Nice game with a good concept.
Very good game, I love the concept :)
I just took some time to understand how the game work, but once done, it's very funny to play :)
well done :)
Ok, the subtle audio touches throughout this game are fantastic, took me a bit to understand what was happening but once I did I had so much fun.
amazing great game !! 3D in game jam, is really big work. Awesome !!
I like the audio cues and music notes, and it was fun to make weird pies. That said, is it just me or were both the fourth plot of land _and_ the beet completely unused? I couldn't find anyone who wanted a four-ingredient pie, nor anyone who wanted beet in their pie.
@philomory That was one of the things we missed out due to time constraints. We initially didn't have the coloured notes coming from customers, and the game was near impossible, so we spent time on getting those in rather than 4-note customers. I'm super glad you finished the game and wanted more though :D
The controls felt a little wonky, but the idea is fun! I like how you are able to interact with the ball as well.
Very cool experience!
I thought this was so fun, and I really liked the puzzle aspect of having to identify the notes and colors and find the vegetables. (Also wanted 4 note customers!)
I thought this was pretty fun, although i had no idea who wanted what pie, or where I was
very good game idea
This is great! Very innovative use of the theme. I enjoy the low poly aesthetic, the music is relaxing, and the voiceovers are a nice touch. The note matching/pie mechanic is creative and I had a great time playing. I think it would be better to have the player face the movement direction rather than the mouse cursor. Excellent submission!
Cool concept! There are a couple weird mechanical things, like that you're really just moving plants instead of growing them, and the audio notes are unnecessary with the color note graphics.
I like that you don't have to be real close to things to pick them up, and the voice acting was great!
I didn't hear any background music, and it would be nice if there was more of an endgame, but you made a fun world to glide around in, so great job!
This game was absolutely hilarious! It also had a great concept and nice use of the theme. Awesome job!
wow good job :D had alot fun :D
The use of theme might not have been very original, but the gameplay mechanics themselves are quite creative.
I was pretty confused at first, when I collected first few carrots and then the cook was constantly "waiting for vegs". In part it was because I somehow focused on the patches yet to purchase, not noticing the already available ones. ^^'
After I explored a bit and playing around with planting vegetables I finally figured out how pies are made, mostly going by the colour rather than the sound. After that, things got clearer and I finally earned a few vegbucks, eventually affording the third patch.
Then, after making one three-note pie and fruitlessly searching for the green vegetable, I accidentally ran out to the water, and from there I fell off the map entirely. So I had to restart. >.<
I played again, and this time I think I succeeded treating everyone to a pie (two 2-note pies and four 3-note pies). Then, I made a four-note pie just for the heck of it and then carried it, while listening to its ethereal melody. Also, I finally noticed it's the vegetables that are literally singing, i.e. moving their mouths when it's their cue. This game seems to have quite a few easy to miss details like that. ^^'
I found the gameplay unclear at the beginning, but somewhat enjoyable once you know what to do; the game could use some movement speed-up option, though. The audiovisuals are good, and complement the game well - the audio aspect in particular is essential to the game mechanics (I mean, you can serve right pies without any sound, but you lose a large part of the experience).
Overall, a pretty well made and original entry. ^^
Tbh, without the colours I wouldn't have known where to start. Was quite fun to figure out and I had a good time searching for the seeds. It was a bit slow and I wished for a backpack so I wouldn't have to gather the seeds one by one. Overall, quite fun. Might have learnt a bit of music by accident ^^
Solid graphics and animations, I was wondering if you have heard of smooth shading in Blender or if the rough edges were a design choice?
In the beginning I had a weird graphics glitch, where red and blue were seperated like in old 3D-movies, I could fix it by tabbing out of the game (windows-button).
Love a good bad pun!
Had a good time, manages to build a nice little game world really quickly and especially like the theme and VO.
Took a while to learn how to make a pie, but the audio whistling thingamajig was fun! Music fits the setting well, and the voiceovers were nice to hear. Would be nice to have an inventory so it's not necessary to go back and forth to pick up seeds.
...Can pick up seeds from a distance as long as the plant is in sight. Same with planting seeds from a distance, as long as the plot is in sight. Makes the work easier, but...is that supposed to happen?
