Fun game. Lots of delicacy needed to not pop everything. Nice idea. Had alot of fun with it.
Liked the grahpics and the music creates a nice atmosphere. When I found the wheat monster I had no idea what to do and was just running around until I eventually found what to do through luck as it's not clear what the box on the table does. Nice game.
The web version of this wouldn't load for me. It just hangs on the unity load screen. The game sprites in the image look great though.
@smilewood Thanks, I've now given it a go.
Like the general scary feel from the scarecrow chasing you and how the music changes when he's close as it really makes you feel on edge.
I did have a few problem however as the game wouldn't give me money for wheat and so I couldn't progress the game. Then on the third night the scarecrow would suddenly get super speed and instantly catch me ending the game.
Look and audio were on point though so I feel like I would enjoy this game alot without the above issue.
@smilewood Glad the feedback was helpful. I'll give it another go this evening after work
Really nice game and well polished. Like the graphics, audio and gameplay was a lot of fun. I like how overly chaotic the game feels. If there was room for improvement I would say the game needs to force an end. For me it felt almost impossible to die without actively trying to collide with enemies. Having the game ramp up the difficulty over time would make the end score more satisfying as you struggle to survive. In the end I found myself off screen where I could no longer die or get back onto the screen.
Overall really enjoyed!
Graphically great and I like the controls and movement. After the first door it's quitei alot of fun trying to get round as fast as you can although I found that after using the keycard if I didn't get there in time then the door shut and keycard didn't respawn so I couldn't progress any further.
Great graphics. Nice sound effects. The concept of the game is fun and makes you try again and again to get the high score.
Very nice game. Looks nice and was very fun. Had quite a few goes. I did find that after the first level the next 2 level just weren't selectable and it forced you to select a level further along, I don't know if that was intentional but seemed to make it hard to be prepared for future levels as you didn't have time to get resources. Really enjoyed it though. One of the games I've enjoyed the most so far.
This was good. Graphics are nice and I like the idea for the gameplay although there feels very little reason to buy small seeds after the first grow so you really hit the end of the game immediately. Definitely the start of a good game here with a few more seed types and some items. Nice job.
Very cute game and enjoyable! Looks great and music was super chill.
Similar problem to others where I had to zoom out to fit the game on my screen. Once I got playing it was a good concept and overall very amusing.
Fun game. Graphics are nice. Sounds and music are nice. I liked the variation with the tree section and cars section, although the cars section could do with being more challenging as it was extremely easy, there was no real challenge in dodging the cars.
This is without a doubt my favourite game so far. Graphics are great, sound effects are great, the game in general is just very well put together. The upgrades also scale pretty nicely imo, it felt quite difficult to make money at first but with a few upgrades it suddenly felt like you could stay down for ages and pretty soon you're almost comically fast and it's just alot of fun. Also the quality of life in the game is nice, with the little extra time after your're oxygen runs out and the fact that you don't have to restart the game after dying once is nice - this is something I've found quickly kills the enjoyment of other games in the jam. Took me 30 minutes to finish the game but it really didn't feel like it. Excellent work!
I had fun with trying to work this out. It was a nice puzzle. Managed to work out 3/5. Couldn't quite work out the play and the offerings. Regarding the family trees, it seemed like some people had 2 mothers which made things rather confusing with working out the number of bags of grain? The game was a nice change of pace. Overall I liked it and spent a long time trying to work it out so good job!
This was great. Really enjoyed playing through this. Looks lovely and animation of the player was great. Nice soundtrack as well. In terms of game play, the platforming and combat was good but could do with a few more attack animations and maybe allow for movement of the player sooner after attacking, when there were multiple ranged enemies I found myself stuck not being able to get an attack on anything without taking damage as well. Fantastic for a second game!
This was fun. Graphics were great. Audio was great. The puzzle aspect of each level was good. Platforming itself could do with a bit of work, maybe some acceleration on the movement. Some coyote time wouldn't go amiss as I often found myself dashing when it felt like I should be jumping. Very good though.
@0xwavy Hi, I'm glad you likek the artwork. I've now added a web embedded version of the game if you would like to try it. Hope you enjoy.
@greynovembergames Hi. I've now added a web embedded version if you would like to try. Hope you enjoy.
To anyone running the game on chrome/edge or any other chromium based browser. The game will currently not work there :frowning2: It works on firefox if you try there instead. Will be working on a fix.
I've now re-added the windows and macos binaries with all the required files and they should now work. Otherwise unfortunately the embedded game will only work on firefox. There seems to be very little information about it and I don't have any more time to investigate a fix.
I hope everyone enjoys the game and thank you for playing!
@tero-pulkkinen This seems to be an issue on chrome. If you try the game on firefox then this doesn't happen. Unfortunately I coudln't work out how to fix this.
@tero-pulkkinen I've now added an alt link for the game on itch that works on chrome: https://achilnos.itch.io/harvestshroom
Had lot's of fun with this one. Looks great, musics good but extra tracks would have been nice. Good game!
This was cute as hell. Really impressive for 48 hours. Looks amazing and super fun. Only bad things is the camera movement with mouse, I had to just not use that as it was super unintuitive and way too fiddly.
Really cool concept. I enjoyed this alot. Very innovative and alot of fun. The only thing I would wish is to play more but level 6 just seems impossible, if you get stuck in an area because of auto-target it seems to be instant death with the line enemy.
Great entry. Fits the theme well, graphics are really nice. I did have to restart the game to properly play though as the enemy just idled everyt time on the first play.
Great game. Looks beautiful. Game is well balanced and makes you work for the victory although I may have given myself carpal tunnel to win :laughing:
Favourite game so far. Good concept with quite alot of depth, I'm sure there are tactics to make this game super easy but I managed to win with <5 hp remaining after the big guy came out. Super polished, everything about this game was fantastic.
Nice first entry. Looks great and was fun.
Lovely game. Really nice art style, I enjoyed the calming music. Nice sound effects. There is a good amount of depth to the puzzles with some interesting plant "effects. Very nice selection of levels that get progressively harder in a way that isn't overwhelming. I think my only suggestion would be to add a way of clearing all plants or click to clear a plant as having to drag the plants off the board if you make a mistake is a bit clunky.
Nice submission, simple and cute. Nice graphics and sound effects and good fun.
Great take on the theme. Nice aesthetic despite the "low settings" :laughing:. Enjoyed the game although I didn't find I had to do much turning things off/on to reach the end.
Nice idea. Looks great. Would like to play more but on the second screen the characters just move to the end and then nothing more can be done.
