Love the game loop! Not sure if intended but I move a lot faster on diagonals instead of all being the same move speed. I'm cheating with it haha Also the coin count overflow after getting to 3 digits on the upgrade screen. Great job!

good job making the game, but i don't know where the wool is or even the roses, it could have some sign that gives you where to go, but good job making the game AND graphics!
Wow! So many upgrades. The game loop is very addictive. I think this would play great with a controller. (The CRT effect is a bit strong for my taste, but otherwise great graphics!) Feels very finished overall. Don't think I would be able to tell this is a jam game.
Nice core loop - it looks like keep on mining but with character controlls Great job - BUT - man - your Balatro like effect su3k - My eyes hurt.
It hurts to watch or play.
Make simple 2D graphics and remove this terrible effect—it doesn't sell the game or make it better.
It just feels like you have nice game and then you decided for play game - you just have to suffer :D

It was very fun to play, the game loop is catchy, timings are good, graphism is well polished and music was lively.
I understood how the water fountain works only at the very end and I'm still not sure if producing wood could be a good strategy to get money, and I didn't understood what the check list to do each day was for until the victory screen ! Nice game !

Insanely fun and addicting game. Please make it a full game. Really great job! Also so much content in the game. thatwasfun.png
Nice take on a classic Ludum Dare formula. Always love this kind of game, I think I played for more than an hour in a single session.

It's a very simple yet exciting game, no matter how it sounds! I liked it!

The game and graphics are both very simple and clear. I like this kind of farm-related management game, as harvesting and hoarding bring a sense of satisfaction.

A very interesting game! I like it!
Lmao, audio for this game is something!

interesting visual, I like farm games
Game loop is very addictive and fun! Mid-late game scaling is a bit unsatisfactory compared to early game, especially after figuring out that wool is by far the most efficient. Towards the end it was a bit frustrating that every other upgrade was so expensive yet useless compared to just harvesting wool.

A simple but very enjoyable game. It’s surprisingly addictive and kept me playing for a long time!
Oh boy that was a game and a half, accidentally played for like 45 minutes to min max my sheep and cow empire. Graphics and audio were nice (besides the **VERY** loud background song), audio sliders would've been nice. Couldn't figure out what the wood was supposed to be used for as I went there exactly once before realizing the animals are much easier. More player abilities would've been nice, but for a game jam game it was already quite a lot of things to do, well done.

Incredible game, the graphics, the music, the controls, everything. The moment I saw the skill tree I knew I had to 100% the game. I got tired at day 50. Good job2025-10-08_14-01-26-049.jpg!

There's so much stuff in this game. I love it :) It's a tiny bit similar to what I've made, but with many more upgrades. Great job!

Too addicting

Really impressive game, I played to the end and then until I had unlocked most of the upgrades. Overall it is pretty well balanced, although wood could definitely do with a buff since it's so slow to get (I prioritised milk and could easily get hundreds near the end).

Super addictive game, I like it
Spent too much time playing this, as others pointed out it is very addicting. The bar above the player not going all the way to the right felt a bit weird, I was always thinking I have 1 more space in my inventory.
I played this game way too long. Loved it!
i will play all night
SO ADDICTING. Something in our human nature to just collect stuff. It's why cookie clicker got so successful. Fun game! I wonder how you can further expand on the concept. I found my method for optimizing became just going to the sheep because it was closest to me.

I'm addicted, this game is not good for my brain, i love bread.
Cute game, it was fun to gather so many things and see the goals get completed. At maximum speed looking at the grass pattern started to make me feel dizzy, which could also been from how fast the camera followed the farmer even with the easing to catch up with him. The sound design was peppy to go along with the gameplay too.

really wanted to unlock everything, but had to stop at day 67 as the unlocks just took too much time at this point :sweat_smile:

FYI, probably already know this but the wood upgrade are not working, and also not checking for whether your inventory is already full :)
