**Thanks you all for playing, and your feedback !**
@memel06 A post-jam release is planned !
@arzi @poorwill @sam-machell @julink I didn’t wanted to make a game with two phases of different genre (you play a dating-sim, then a match-3), but merge it in more depth.
In [this post explaining the theme](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/$75164/what-do-these-themes-mean-final-round), “Racing game” is reduce to the fact that “[the player] are trying to be the first to get to the finish”. So I reduce “Farming simulation” to “take care of plants” and “Dating-sim” to “interact with a character to fulfill his desires and win his heart”.
It’s seem that my interpretation of these genres was a little too simplistic/not what was expected. 🤔
So yes, it is primarily a match-3 game. *Where “dating-sim interactions” are matches instead of dialogues and gifts and characters are garden plants !* =)
But some ideas i'm thinking about can add a little more "dating-sim" feeling to the game
Here is a list of things I planned but couldn’t add before deadline: * Character animations (I agree with @pparadigm that a blushing carrot is definitely needed!) * Sound effects and music * More characters (planned a Strawberry and a Turnip) * Better main menu and victory/gameover screen (character selection should have been a “seed package” selection)
Working to add all this in the post-jam release !
@joe-cowman @kalavecy @riordan @lereveur @campbell I take good note, I’ll work on the difficulty and look to remove the auto-matching (at least avoid matching bugs and cold) ^^
@idikit @killnaprimer Good ideas, I’m gonna think about it ! Thanks !
Now I’m gonna take some time to play yours games 😀
