LD52 — Harvest

Cat Farm Panic ! by Yvanor 2023-01-09T16:45:11Z

Great idea and implementation of concepts around keeping cats! Would be cool to see it keep going. :)

Dice Settlers by Jimbly 2023-01-09T14:23:44Z

Great board game feel. Hope you take the game further moving forward. :)

GRIM REAPER: Harvester of Souls by dkdwrek 2023-01-09T16:52:21Z

Nice polish added to the game, leaderboard, difficulties, UI, etc. Nice hack-n-slash with harvest theme!

Lullaby farms by TolMera 2023-01-09T16:06:19Z

Concur with the sentiments above. :)

Herding Hounds by mintybacon 2023-01-09T18:25:56Z

Nice submission, pretty cool idea to herd sheep. It's very satisfying to get a large group of them through at a time! Movement felt a little jerky, more fluidity there could go a long way. Would be cool to see the game evolve. Great work! :)

Apples of Agony by Joey Shipley 2023-01-09T19:52:24Z

@lookleftstudio thanks for the callout on timer improvement. Will definitely implement that next go around. :)

Apples of Agony by Joey Shipley 2023-01-09T21:26:08Z

@wuppos I'm not sure why the hit detection is a bit laggy yet. The hit area is a little larger than the food itself, but I noticed the same thing. This was the first 2D attempt in unity, I'm wondering if we used the wrong raycast or what not. Something that is definitely on the list for exploring and learning more about.

Apples of Agony by Joey Shipley 2023-01-09T21:51:58Z

Nice, thanks for the advice. I'll explore that next time around. :)

Apples of Agony by Joey Shipley 2023-01-26T22:05:47Z

@depression The Kiddo imagined that the watermelons were magical ice-cream filled and requested they be blue and such, and she’s the boss… 😅

Typefarmer by Antti Haavikko 2023-01-09T13:36:31Z

Amazing concept, game is well put together. I woke up the next day still surprised at how much I liked a 'typing' game, not really my bag of tea. Hope you consider taking this further, you have something interesting on your hands. :)

Robert the Druid has Made a Terrible Mistake by Mohamed_DKD 2023-01-09T17:33:00Z

Great entry, really like the harvest aspect added on top of tower-defense. The game froze up on the last heart, and I don't think the 2nd tree gives 4 when at stage 2. Would be cool to see it evolve more. :)

Crop Circle by Rulrite 2023-01-09T13:33:03Z

Was amazed how complete and polished the game is. Particularly enjoyed the art. A little chaotic at times, which is good in its own way. :)

Crowings Do by PatrickRMC 2023-01-09T16:48:02Z

Wasn't sure what to expect, but I have to say this really came together very well. The art & music play together perfectly, great game entry!

Scythe of Souls by xaviarrob123 2023-01-10T18:01:27Z

Good game entry. I particularly liked the art, big fan of pixel work and yours is good. :)

It feels like the hit detection for the player is a bit off. When a ghost is grabbing on to me I don't lose health unless I try to move. Also, it doesn't seem to take damage when I run into the ghost from different directions, and does for others.

Tiny FarmLand by Roalinn 2023-01-09T14:17:37Z

Great game on your hands. :) Liked the art style, music, theme, and gameplay.

The sound cutout for me after restarting after jumping into the worms a few times.

Escape the Harvest by greenkingwashere 2023-01-09T17:00:24Z

Interesting idea, pig stealth game to rescue cows. The people get stuck sometimes chasing you. Nice job.

King of the Valley by fnelix 2023-01-09T14:12:45Z

Neat concepts at play. Really like the aesthetics of the board, how it's rendered and such. The movement felt a little off, it took me a second to piece together that it's a turn-based game. Something about the game makes it feel like it's realtime and that caused me to see the movement as clunky at first. Once I got that out of my head it flowed more naturally for me.

Ecfloro by Milestone Games 2023-01-09T14:29:10Z

Beautiful and tranquil. Great entry. :)

Salvage City by StormCat 2023-01-09T13:48:27Z

Pretty unique idea, gameplay, and the art style was a blast from the past! Nice surprise, you've got a good entry there. :)

Plant Harvester by zimny11 2023-01-09T18:38:42Z

Art and music on intro screen are top notch. I wasn't able to get it to play on itch, spacebar kept scrolling the browser instead of starting the game. Chrome. Will try other browsers later.

Plant Harvester by zimny11 2023-01-09T19:20:57Z

Might not be an issue, it could be a PEBKAC issue on my end...

Plant Harvester by zimny11 2023-01-09T19:24:33Z

All good, it's working. Problem was on my end. Pretty awesome entry. That harvester is top notch and the shadow/art on it makes it really pop.

Asteroid Rush by Aarimous 2023-01-09T22:27:20Z

"You rock but I have some gas!", totally caught me off guard there, good times. Original, solid game, with humor. Nice touch blowing up the planets. Would be cool to play on mobile if you haven't thought about it. Good luck in the Jam.

Wheat Master by nyxkn 2023-01-09T21:50:49Z

Well done game, enjoyed it for all 46 upgrades. :) Great base game loop, hope it gets expanded. Good luck in the jam.

Afterlife Assistance Agency by FishMasterino 2023-01-10T17:47:30Z

Absolute chaos there at the end, loved it. Game was really easy to learn without reading anything, art top notch, and music too. Really came together for a solid core game. Not much work needed for one of the game stores. :) Good luck on the jam.

Harvexo by IndivisibleParticles 2023-01-10T17:56:01Z

Love the design/art style of the cards, simple and clean yet professional. While not a game genre I gravitate towards, it's well done and a solid submission. :) Good luck on the jam.

Harester by spacecadet 2023-01-09T17:09:46Z

Great entry, liked the concepts all around and was a blast-from-the-past with the old school nintendo game feel. Great job!

Fields of Fortune by Joey Van Lierop 2023-01-09T18:30:10Z

Concur with prior feedback. I really liked the fusion of game/harvesting with cards. As I was playing it, I thought to myself, "this would be great to play co-op with a friend against AI". At any rate, good job and would be cool to see the game continue to grow. :)

Minetanite by picttarge 2023-01-09T22:05:14Z

Great submission, good balance of difficulty & play. Really liked the art and music fit the mood well. Solid core game loop on your hands. Good luck on the jam.

Hare Runner by Crychair 2023-01-10T17:52:14Z

Really good submission! Art, music, voice overs are awesome. Really liked the R-Type style game set on the ground, nice change up. :)

I struggled a bit with the attack controls, it felt a little unresponsive. I wasn't able to get it down well enough to attack and take out something without also taking a bunch of damage. Would require some getting used to.

Corntacular Spectacular by Icoso 2023-01-09T16:18:02Z

Nice work and good creation of plant vs concept.

Crypt Caper by Asieke 2023-01-09T17:17:48Z

I also struggled with the controls, it felt like it overshot the movements. I'm sure once I'm used to it, it wouldn't feel as off. Art, music, composition all top notch. Great work.

Season of Harvest by Wuppos 2023-01-09T17:03:22Z

Pretty good entry, loved the art and game feel/flow. Would be cool it grow. :)

Radiance by XOREAXEAX 2023-01-09T19:37:14Z

Cool entry, music, voice, art, gameplay fit well together. Built a ton of the 2 devices and harvested a lot, would love to see more added to the game. Keep at it and great work!

Combine Harvester: Time Attack! by Christian Zommerfelds 2023-01-09T16:57:59Z

Nice entry, 2D farming sim. :) Art and controls all fit theme well. Good work.

Bonsai Season by JuanRod707 2023-01-09T19:46:04Z

Solid game, unique idea. Enjoyed it, great work!

Red Harvester by Forgin Bits 2023-01-09T13:46:30Z

Well done game with polish, good job! The 3d aspect to the top down gives it a good feel.

Carrot Jack by RobLaro 2023-01-09T22:16:55Z

Solid game. Good balance on difficulty, would consider something that spawns in the rotation that you want to dump/not use. Really nice art. Took me a bit to realized the carrot shrunk, but when I got it to explode it felt good. Good baseline for a game loop, would be cool to see this evolve. Good luck on the jam!

Plot Luck by Ani 2023-01-09T16:40:41Z

Nice entry, gamble harvesting was a neat "spin" on the theme. Good work!

Glean the Luminescent by jcg 2023-01-09T18:47:36Z

Nice game, the aesthetics of light/sources is really neat. The day and night shifting gameplay was a great addition also. Would be cool to see where the game goes. Great job! :)

QUICK QUICK, HARVEST! by Buzzoopa 2023-01-09T13:43:45Z

Nice entry, really like the puzzle aspect to it. I had a hard time figuring out that "z" to enter portal to play the game. I thought it was a 2.

Green Thumb by shimmerscale 2023-01-09T13:50:49Z

Really liked the combination of concepts/mechanics here, the puzzle/moves-remaining is a nice addition to planting and harvesting. Design composition works well with the art. Weekend well spent. :)

Out Of Sight by Kizilejderha 2023-01-09T17:43:09Z

Amazing game! Great balance of opponents too. The first time I barely got away from one of those harvesters and it ran over a flashlight guy, awesome experience. Mood, lighting, rain, music, slightly slow movement really blended well. Great job!

Monkey Business by Ab0303 2023-01-09T21:08:14Z

A fun enjoyable entry, with the perfect blend. :)

Would be neat to see it taken further, great baseline for a fun casual game.

Hackervester by nyvin 2023-01-09T20:50:36Z

Please read comments before playing. No idea what this is actually doing, but it's not a game.

Iris's Scrappy Rumble by ScolonDev 2023-01-09T16:12:51Z

Great entry! Really enjoy the combo of gathering, crafting, to make the weapons to attack. Would be cool to see this one further developed. :)

Money grows on trees by Fluburbio 2023-01-09T19:55:25Z

Nice! Really like the selling/upgrading addition to harvesting. Great work!

Speed Wheat by Ghostskill24 2023-01-09T18:21:56Z

What I can try is pretty cool, having a hard time with the game being constrained in the embedded area of the site. Not able to get it to full screen. I had similar issues with my game, so that's on my list of stuff to study and learn about. All in all, good submission. :)

Slime Farm by pinapl 2023-01-09T17:39:57Z

Nice submission, very polished, love the art. The market, time systems are pretty sweet. Good job!
