So cute! I love everything about this game. It feels like the most concise farming game possible. This would make an excellent app in the appstore ;)

This is so good! the art is wonderful and it has so much going on for a Jam game, the number of things to ship and just how nice and smooth it all feels really makes things feel satisfying and frantic in the ten second timer. It really feels like you've gone the extra mile.

This is a fun and cute little game. Music is kinda catchy too

iguanana 2022-10-02 23:40

Very aesthetically pleasing. Nicely done!

prologi 2022-10-02 23:47

Art is very, very good. Music is very cathcy! It's very good idea for a full sized game.

-: It's very hard to play without tutorial, first 3 tries I just tried to figure out how to plant everything correctly. Player speed doen't allow me to get 2-items boat on the opposite island in 10-sec period at the beggining. I can carry one item in time, but for second one I don't have time.

It's really good game, but needs more balance

Very cute!

The art and music are really good. Reminds me of Overcooked a little bit when things get hectic.

Fantastic stardew valley/animal crossing-esque game! Love the aesthetics and the amount of polish you gave to the game in such a short time! The animations are crisp but lively! Really had a smile on my face when playing this. If there's one feedback, it would be ability to rebind E/Space as the hotkey since I keep using the wrong key to do the action (E is often USE in FPS games). But love this!

vivianmochi 2022-10-03 03:40

This is so cute! Definitely difficult at first but I got the hang of it pretty quickly! This would be a super fun game to be able to play with friends. Awesome game!

xorel 2022-10-03 04:26

Super cute art style and music, colors are so pleasing to look at. The animations are great, and it feels like I just had essence of Stardew injected into my veins while Tom Nook is on a boat with a baseball bat in his hands waiting on his delivery. I will say it's pretty difficult in the first go around, but I really enjoyed it. Sending the link to a few people who I know will love this. Very well done!

sofy 2022-10-03 05:46

I feel bad that people are praising the one thing u didn't make (the art)

I know u put a lot of work in the other things such as music, code and polish and you did an amazing work 💖

m11 2022-10-03 08:29

Loved the art, and thought it escalated at a good speed :)

alex5041 2022-10-03 10:24

Atmosphere is cozy. Game is excellent

The only problem I had is with the controls. It would be better if E and Space where substituted by Z and X.

stesproject 2022-10-03 10:42

The art is cute and the concept it's interesting! :)

kman 2022-10-03 12:56

This is a really cute game! I love it!

nash 2022-10-03 14:35

While it takes a moment to get a hang of the game's systems, when you eventually do it is actually a really fun game! This should obviously have a tutorial but hey, you do not have time to do everything during a jam.

A simple tutorial fix would make the first boats wait so they player would actually be able to complete something. I ended up losing quite a few times before I made my first shipment and started to understand how systems and controls work.

When the game gets going I really like the feeling of rush you are getting! A good entry and bonus points for the music!

zl17 2022-10-03 16:17

I love the art style and sound design!

ashgramor 2022-10-03 18:07

Amazing! Love the game. I find it quite hard. It would be really cool if you'd be able to maybe make it into a rogue lite, or something. Either way great game, I think you should consider releasing it on steam even

alex-covert 2022-10-03 20:51

Art style looks super cute in the photos! Was excited to try it out just for that but unfortunately didn't seem to load here and I was seeing "not found" when trying to download the zip

joey-van-lierop 2022-10-03 20:58

@alex-covert Not sure why that is happening all of the sudden :slight_frown:

I reuploaded the game zip so that should be working now. Ill try to figure out why the web version is broken.

alex-covert 2022-10-03 22:06

Awesome, the zip worked this time! The art and audio were very polished feeling which made it fun to play. I liked the animated main menu, kind of gave an idea of how the game would work before getting to play. Took a few tries to get the hang of the controls but once I did it was a ton of fun. Kind of had Overcooked vibes. Nice job!

harry-alissavakis 2022-10-03 23:00

Suuuper cute and nice visuals, a nice soundtrack and a really cool gameplay loop! The controls felt a bit confusing, I went around hitting space and E alternatively, but even with that, this remains one of the better submissions I've seen so far! Well done!

fuzzybut 2022-10-04 01:21

SO ADORABLE!!! I love it. I agree with the Overcooked vibes^ This is the kind of game I'd love as a couch co-op! I kept getting E and Spacebar actions mixed up and always ended up throwing my seeds everywhere.

i-wrote-it-myself 2022-10-04 01:23

So much cuteness, I love it. Great job.

yogurtthehorse 2022-10-04 02:02

How could you done such a good game in 2 days?!

I guess one of the best entry in the jam

2022-10-04 05:26

It's so cute! But I could only survive for 20 seconds. lol

carolinewang 2022-10-04 08:38

This game is adorable and the art style is incredibly charming and soft! It definitely took a second to get used to / understand so more instruction built in the game would be appreciated, but once I got the hang of things, this was a great play :two_hearts: Great job!!

okshirl 2022-10-04 08:59

This game was soooo cute, the way its ears flap.. It was a little hard to line up the with the exact square I want to plant on. Same issue with interacting with the exact thing I want to pick up, I wonder if highlighting the item will help, it gets quite hectic when there are so many plants and seeds on the screen! Overall super cute game, loved it!

baidan6 2022-10-04 10:02

very cool idea and game concept

kepsert 2022-10-04 15:35

Such a cute game with great aesthetics! I loved the multitasking aspect you put in there, and albeit the music was a bit repetitive, I was so focused on gameplay that I didn't even notice it until I just sat and focused on the music. A sort of high score system would've been great! Nice entry, thanks for your submission!

thiefaine 2022-10-04 17:41

Good game, the mechanic is super funny, the mood is great, love the fact you have to manage lots of resources & choas on a small island, the downside to me is the controls, I struggle with the fact the character moves analogically & the selection square is snapped to tiles + the fact you have to face the items you want it's confusing to me ^^ But great game overall !! Good job

pengilton 2022-10-04 18:32

Such a cute little farming game! The graphics are solid and cute, and the gameplay is smooth. I often mixed up the keybinds. I also have to add that the game is not relaxing. Panic mode intesifies. Solid game!

sarah-alexa 2022-10-04 20:21

I love the art style for this and the music helps add even more charm to it. I did find it very difficult though even once I got used to the controls. I think if we could carry 2 items at once it would have helped loads but other than that, very enjoyable! Planting and growing stuff is quick and easy and the controls are very easy to remember!

The 10 seconds was used well to make the farming induce a feeling of panic! Had my eye on this one and I had a fun time! You got a lot done here!

phillip-scott 2022-10-04 23:16

Super cute look - found my self getting far too many game overs though haha Good Job!

siaaay 2022-10-05 12:07

It was really fun. I love the art style ut I was little bit confused with the gameplay. I only survive like 20 seconds

rincs 2022-10-05 14:05

Cute style, challenging gameplay! Certainly would appreciate more sloped difficulty curve. Would love to see this game fully realized with more time and polish! :D

enad96 2022-10-06 13:43

Adorable and surprising amount of strategy needed with crop placement due to multiple drop off points and crop types.

trassh 2022-10-09 10:21

Really cute game! I love the artstyle and especially the charecter! I really had to use my brain and fast reflexes for this game. Would've loved if it was a bit more clear with where i can and can't plant things but other than it was great!

fedir 2022-10-10 11:46

Cute game. I love the graphic and gameplay but for some players would be nice to add tutorial. And if not 10sec only it would be great relax)))
