Very relaxing. I bought multiple plants and got the truck upgrades too.

Very relaxing. I bought multiple plants and got the truck upgrades too.
Nice game, a bit slow at the start.
A bit slow for my taste, but relaxing nonetheless 🙂
I did not have patience to finish it. Takes way too slowly and stays that way even if I have 8 plants and truck upgrades. It could be pretty fun if balanced correctly (not to take hours of clicking to get anywhere)
Cool cookie clicker sort of vibe, but it felt really slow to me, and the upgrades seemed not to be terribly impactful.
Some more transparency would be nice, like more info on if there is a limit to how much fruit can sit waiting, and how much you have waiting.
Also, maybe have it increase the speed of the truck to click on the crops to load them, so there is something besides click on the crops to worry about.
Sorry if the above seems harsh, but just saw some areas it could improve. I really liked the work you did here!
a very relaxing game I like it :)
I really like the graphics and overall game but as said it's really slow in the beginning (and throughout). Might be worth considering that fruits harvest themselves after one or two cycles so it becomes a kind of idle game but you have an advantage playing actively and also tuning down the price increments or raise up the price of produce sold.
Good job nontheless! I'll grind through it to find out the other veggies and such in the game :)
I spent 1h playing your game and just unlocked blueberry and strawberry. What are other types of plants to unlock later?
@alutka Thanks for the feedback. Other plants open gradually, as soon as there is enough money.
@mtpw You're right. The balance in the game turned out to be a difficult task for me. One thing pleases, all the parameters for the balance are tabulated in array inside the game. I'll take more time to straighten out the balance. Thanks for the feedback/
@fromage Thank you so much for your clear comments. I really like such comments, which not only describes the emotions of the game, but also says what you liked and what should be changed.
@rhanzoc You're right. I think I got my priorities wrong when developing. Instead of adding important mechanics, I focused on mechanics that add little interest to the game. Thank you for helping me understand which mechanics are more important for the player to increase interest. I completely agree about the balance in the game.
Nice graphics and music, but I agree with many others here in the chat. The game started very slow and it would have been nice to have something to occupy myself with rather than having to wait for the trucks to drive up and pickup the harvest. Given that, I think the concept for this game is very close to being pretty fun, just needs some tweaking (maybe just a speed boost).
Nice and relaxing, but the start was quite slow. I think speeding up a bit as mentioned would make it spike up interest faster.
I really enjoy the chill vibes, and like the suggestion above that crops could auto-harvest!
Dare I click the button even though it's already full, potentially breaking the game and losing all progress? My heart is absolutely racing! I'll resist the temptation, for now.

Aside from that one thing, I didn't really find any bugs. Not too bad!
@organicpencil Thank you for playing my game! I checked everything several times, and the sign should have disappeared. But, as usual, players still find bugs =)
It's nice to see another clicker game! I enjoy this kind of relaxing experience and the simplicity of the gameplay. This is a solid game, well done!
Nice game. It's easy to understand and relaxing to play, the beginning is a little slow but it's still fun. I like the relaxing mood of the music, it fits very well.
Novel take on the clicker game. It felt a bit slow at the start though. Well done :)
I love clicker/idle games and this one definitely had me hooked with the curiosity/expansion/"numbers go up" aspects, but I really wished that things increased more quickly. For example, I had 5 plants and they were outpacing the truck, so I bought the truck upgrade and suddenly I was making 7 or 8 money instead of 10 with each trip of the truck for some reason, even though there were still always more plants to bring back and sell than the truck could carry. So then it took even longer to get to the next truck upgrade, etc.
But with that said, this game does make me wanna download it on my phone and play it while watching TV or something :D Well done!
