Very cool, very meta ;) Refreshing concept, and i really enjoyed the little animations. Everything worked smoothly for me.

Really enjoyed this one. Love the tiny idea, great execution, like the style. Indeed something refreshing. Great entry!

Super cool idea, the end screen was very laggy so it was hard to enjoy my harvest :sweat_smile:

this wouldn't really work outside of ludum dare, but this was great as a ludum dare entry

Very creative, and well done too. It was a fun surprise when it occurred to me what was happening.

Game took me by surprise, I noticed comments made to my games and certain words were highlighted, but I noticed that there was influence on certain words, but it was all random.

Creative and unexpected game from what I've seen around here.

If you can, put a soundtrack, at least when I played there wasn't, the sound effects are good and the letters are very well placed with the character, that is, the ambiance is good.

Check out my game: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/52/space-harvest

Haha, well done ! The idea is very great.

lfreinoso 2023-01-16 21:21

Nice!

This was sooo cool!! xD Really fun interacting with the text -short but really worked well and was interesting start to finish -awesome work! :D

Finally the strand type game I was looking for! Always love these types of games with real data

szieberth-adam 2023-01-17 19:33

Balck screen for me, the game does not seem to start at all.

oadt 2023-01-19 18:20

@szieberth-adam Oh no, sorry for that! Could you tell me which browser you are using and if you see any error logs in the javascript console? Probably can't fix the problem this jam but maybe can find out something for next time.

That's just brilliant! Really nice sourcing of text to harvest =).

Hilarious idea! I laughed out loud several times while playing. The word detection works great, distinguishing between several compliments. The digging of the words reminds me somehow of Super Mario Bros.2.

Clever idea to give people something to play that is all about them and the feedback they've received. Very creative entry, good job mate.<3

Wow, very interesting idea, and probably not that easy to implement. Great sumbission!

maartene 2023-01-21 15:01

most innovative title I played so far. great twist on the theme and very meta.

haotian-chen 2023-01-21 15:41

a little short but quite fun and creative! nice job!

jonqs 2023-01-21 16:07

My profile is not loading into the game but tried with other pseudo from the comments and it wokrs. Very cool concept !

vidarn 2023-01-22 13:36

What a fun and innovative idea. I was surprised when I realized what you were doing :laughing: I think the implementation is really well done, leaning into the minimalistic style but with cool effects on the text. Definitely an entry I will remember!

lizelive 2023-01-24 06:37

huh i still don't have anything to harvest :(

lizelive 2023-01-24 06:41

so update: i impersonated you. i see whats going on and i love it. now im extra sad i don't have anything to harvest. despite very minmal i gave very high score overall its super cool!

sharploaded 2023-01-25 05:47

Very cool idea! The animations are great, super cute little character. From a gameplay perspective, the text went a bit fast and it was difficult to get all the words. I think I would more appreciate a similar concept but more puzzly and less stressful. Really good job overall, very innovative.

philstrahl 2023-01-25 20:29

Wow that was very meta! Loved what you did with the theme, very unusual! Presentation is minimalist but the animations and visual flourishes are very pleasing! Short and sweet! 😊

suchista 2023-01-27 14:28

Wow, what a great entry! Awesome idea and well executed too - nice, minimalistic art and tiny ideas scattered between "levels". My favorite game I played this LD, good job!

digivorix 2023-01-27 19:12

A charming entry. It took me a few seconds to realize when it actually started and I could move the character, but I got the hang of it after that. The gameplay is quick and unique. I also like the end screen.

Just curious, what engine was this made in?

oadt 2023-01-27 19:29

@digivorix Thank you for playing! It is a custom code base, but the graphics are handled by [pixi.js](https://github.com/pixijs/pixijs) and the end screen by [planck.js](https://github.com/shakiba/planck.js). You can also download the source code on the itch.io page if you want to take a look (I accidentally disabled downloading the source code before :sweat_smile:) I might open source the base code in the future, when I added at least some documentation.
