I loved the idea of collecting with sequences of buttons, congratulations, nice game.

vaizaragorn 2023-01-09 21:02

@charles-lacerda Thank you!

twitwann 2023-01-09 21:14

waaaa this game is so cool !! The music and the dynamism is great

xaviarrob123 2023-01-09 21:34

Game is a lot of fun, plays like FFR mixed with some dodging / bullet hell

I'd love to see the crow sometimes 'swoop' and try to bomb you and would love to see more levels!

I can confirm that the Linux build works correctly! :)

The concept and implementation of the game are very interesting. Although, it seems that you can't lose since you can just wait for the bird to drop hearts. Other than that, I think the game is really cool!

@twitwann Thank you! :heart:

vaizaragorn 2023-01-09 22:15

@xaviarrob123 That's definitely something I'll be adding in the next update, thanks for the recommendation!

vaizaragorn 2023-01-09 22:16

@zyper Thanks for the confirmation :) Yeah thats the one important thing I missed haha, I'll try adding @xaviarrob123 idea, I think that'll add some challange to it.

Wow, I wanna hear a backstory for that crow, it has something to tell us...

fallcresthero 2023-01-09 23:13

Nice small game.

I would like to see some kind of highscores at the end

vaizaragorn 2023-01-09 23:32

Thank you @fallcresthero Yeah there are a lot of stuff I have in my mid to add to game, a leaderboard is one of them!

tk-dev 2023-01-10 02:10

Really nice pacing, interesting mechanic for pulling out the veggies. I like it!

moonlightbomber 2023-01-10 02:16

It has potential as an arcade game. And like what @fallcresthero suggested, implement high scores.

roberto-romao 2023-01-10 03:19

I liked the graphic and overall mood but the character feels a little heavy. Also I would suggest to use the grab sequence icons to be WASD or arrows depending on what input the user is using.

Good job :D

I loved the bright color scheme/art and the music - very cheerful. The gameplay was fun too once I got the hang of it. It'd be cool to have some way to win or a leaderboard for the high score or something like that, or have it get harder as you go

simple and creative. I didnt expect that crow to attack me when I start removing plants. I was expecting a rush and try to remove seeds until the soil covered completely with plants. The idea of waiting crow to go far to start removing plants. Simple ideas can make difference and make the game more strategic. Well adjusted

bird poops a lot! made me giggle everytime I got a poop and a heart in a row. enjoyed that. What I did not enjoy so much was that very often 2 seeds are dropped in such short time that they both land on the same spot which cancels one of them as the other would have turned into a veggie already, or the fact that red things that hurt youcan be hidden behind the bins which cant be seen. None the less, simple, yet great game. I just wanted more of the button sequences. well done.

vaizaragorn 2023-01-10 19:23

Thank you a lot everyone @tk-dev @moonlightbomber @roberto-romao @naomiajacobs @sezer I'm thinking of a post jam update and I2ll definitely consider your feedback. Thanks for playing again :heart:

vaizaragorn 2023-01-10 19:41

Thank you @cagil-ozdemirag I think i can make the bird poop thing way better in the next update, thanks for the recommendations :)

she-wrote 2023-01-11 02:23

Good mood! Enchanting art and music! Fun gameplay! Well done!

shaunyeap 2023-01-11 08:29

Nice game, it was hilarious that the crow now plant and the human go steal(harvest) it. Unique harvest mechanic make it outstanding. Overall good work, well done!

vaizaragorn 2023-01-11 11:03

Thank you :heart: @she-wrote @shaunyeap I didn't even think of a nice story I just tho why not haha

stevencolling 2023-01-11 12:38

Having a mini game for harvesting the fruits and using the crow as a timer to put pressure on the player is a neat concept. The pixel art looks cute, too! :)

accatosh 2023-01-11 22:00

The game is very simple but at the same time fun. Good job! I like the art and that you pick up crops by doing key combinations. I think that the game might be too easy though, so a little more challenge would be good.

vaizaragorn 2023-01-11 22:22

@accatosh Yeah i noticed that after seeing some people play. I'll publish a post jam update and add some features that i wanted. Thanks for the nice feedback

Cool ❤️ This is a very nice mix of platformer and "press the right directions"! 🥕 Controls felt a bit stiff. Music fits and graphics is nice.

I would have loved to be able to hit the bird 🦅 with some vegetables 🥬. It felt like I would be able to hit it. First I thought that is the goal of the game. What are the green boxes 🟩 at each end of the level? Container? Any purpose?

A nice surprise entry in the jam. I like it very much!!!

budaniel 2023-01-12 19:23

I'm terrible at QTEs, so the fact that failing one didn't result in a loss of life was a huge bonus. The only criticism I have is that there should be an end-goal, be it a timer or number of plants pulled.

simon-rahnasto 2023-01-16 21:27

I love that the way you harvest the vegetables is so innovative; I had a lot of fun running around trying to collect as many as possible while avoiding the angry crow! The graphics have a nice retro touch and I like that there are many different vegetables to collect (you have to be quick to harvest the biggest ones!).

This is a very nice game that demands you to stay focused! Fantastic job :smile:

Very fun game! Love it :D
