Very nice polished game! I think the connection to the theme was a bit tenuous, but totally made up the visuals! Great Job!

Very nice polished game! I think the connection to the theme was a bit tenuous, but totally made up the visuals! Great Job!
wow super fun! love the harvesting, audio.. those pesky cows though.. it's almost like they wanted to get butchered!
Great job!
such nice particle smoke, and i love the backup sound! The steering needs to be a bit more controllable. Maybe don't un-steer when i let go? Also the game was about speed, but i did not __Feel__ like i was going fast, so it made me a bit frustrated... Overall a great entry though, worked well and i love the lo-poly look!
Wow, great job on creating really polished art and gameplay!
My only complaint is that it felt a bit tedious to go drop the seeds and then go slice them. I would have liked maybe a bit more action gameplay.
Overall amazing job!
lol, this guy skates backwards better than me for sure
neat! i liked that it was beatable, but also kind of feel like it could have been harder. The polish level is pretty great! well done!
wow, captured the aesthetic of my youth! great job!
My big complaint was lack of crosshairs. also i think you could have added a bit more bass to the sfx on the bones.. more bone-crushing, less clattering bones
Super fun!
fun effects and music... if only i could drift my combine... π
Hi, i think you need a bit more explanation for all those controls! This thing needs a manual!
Super fun to plod along and toggle all the switches though, and the art/music/sound is lovely. Just was not very clear what I was supposed to be doing with all the mushroom thingies!
love the combine, and really love the motor sounds π€£ !
However, why does A go right and D go left?? making my poor brain hurt!
Fun concept! It felt a bit disconnected where the tails would engage the tree.. something that made it feel hard to see that i was able to master it. I think having your sprites more precisely align with the collision boxes, and maybe some visual feedback would be helpful. The music is good, but also maybe a bit too strong, and could be a bit more background, or have a different loop to mix in for some variation.
Overall a great job!
very nice, really fun puzzle work with all the spells, and impressive play time for a weekend's worht of work!
cute graphics, although slightly disturbing π, could use a bit more variation as others noted, maybe a bit more subtle movement controls to make it feel a bit more rewarding to master. Good job overall!
Cool idea, and pretty good execution! I wish i had a couple more attacks, but it was fun! Mouse speed was also a bit frustrating on HTML5 version, both in ldjam.com and itch
Very neat idea! I do wish there was a way to do this with a mouse, but i get it (my game also had some control challenges.. jams don't provide much time for this).
Also I totally appreciate the mowing-a-field mechanic π as it is pretty much what we did!
Wow, super polished gameplay for a jam game! It started out easy but ramped up all of a sudden, but I definitely feel like i had plenty of time to ramp up. Would have appreciated a way to get smoother movement, but everything including, sound, animations, gameplay, performance, seemed really well done!
Wow, challenging and super fun! I couldn't quite figure out how to dodge the boar, but that is a mark on my ability to multitask!! Great Job!
fun, i think i would have liked to get a more focused flame breath so i could really swoop down and torch a roof-full of pesky humans.. but that the experience was that close is a testament to how fun this was! great job!
Great, just Great. I am only a little made that the P2 beat me so handily =]
neat, love the art style!
nice illustrations, and I appreciate games that are mellow!
Wow, great job, the controls and gameplay felt really smooth, and i love the interaction with the plants as they grow, that "tick" felt really good. The only complaint is that those stinky red thingies were annoyingly good at predicting my movement.. just a whee bit of inertia so i could dodge them would be nice. But then again, maybe i just need more practice =]
Fun game, i love the soul harvesting look/feel, although they seem like zombies.. do they have souls? Either way good job!
nice little game! as others said music would be nice.
Nice graphics, and a great scythe
haha, when we were making our game we were wondering if we should add drift.. this game makes me wish i had!
One note, it would be nice to have a menu to pause or quit
fun, i had a little hard time swinging the scythe.. somehow it wasn't clear to me when i would connect and harvest. Overall good job!
fun game! only suggestion would be to ease up on the collision animation for lighter collisions, it is a bit distracting. Great Job!
wow, clever mashup of robo sumo .. really fun!
wow, very well balanced, engaging, polished.. amazing job for 48 hours!
clever take on the mechanics ,fun, easy to pick up. The rapid fire mode at the end of the round was really satisfying.. nice!
nice start, i think 3rd person view might have worked better so you could see the parasite dangling from their brain!
lovely game with great balance on the basic mechanics! music felt really good, and the animations/graphics were nice. I love the growing evil weeds. If anything I wanted a bit more, some sort of story, villain, purpose, but.. this is maybe a great foundation to add on to! Great Job!
cute aesthetics, definitely reminds me of games i played in my youth!
nice, took me a minute to realize what I had to do. I love the cute but meddlesome raccoons! This reminds me too much of dealing with squirrels in my garden..
cool concept, definitely has potential!
fast paced and disorienting, fun!
cool use of new tech
very absurdia
wow, super fun and really polished. impressive
Cute! My daughter played several rounds of this!
love the art, and it was challenging crafting potions while dodging the furballs! great job!
Wow, this captures the frustration of being a Barista! I couldn't figure out how to dump my incorrect drink. Great job, very immersive!
challenging controls.. i was disappointed i couldn't get to throwing the baby out the window lol
very cute.. maybe something happening every 10 s would be good? naaaah who cares, i got to the party!
fun little start to a game. .i did not expect those bullets to chase me!!
cute, loved the music, definitely challenging!
Wow very cool and atmospheric and beautiful. I love the concept as well.. i did crash even though I was staying within the "black" area of my sonar though.. maybe I needed to be running outside to look out as well? OVerall great concept and nice execution
Humor off the charts! I had trouble selecting less units though, but that might have been me.
wow, mood off the charts! and the art is very intense! There is definitely a learning curve, but it felt good and seemed like great potential for creating the ultimate defensive setup. Nice Job!
Amazing game feel and beautiful art! I was a bit confused how to go about managing the planties, but then again I am bad at that IRL anyway. Great job!
absolutely lovely, wonderful to see a game built in scratch yet so fun and so pretty!
cool, i wanted to thrust forward a bit..
tricky, but cool idea
wow, really a pleasant little game! only comment would be that maybe a force-driven movement would be a bit harder but also easier to "master" than the random jitter that seemed to be there. Also a periodic stream of bubbles would be good too :) Overall very nice!
Wow, what a lovely concept!
neat! very similar to our game, but way harder. Good job with the fuel packs, I think they are a more interesting mechanic than our refuel on planets system. Nice job!
simple, not innovative, but well executed. nice!
fun little game
fun, i think graphics music and theme were awesome. I wish there was a bit more of an explainer on the management process, just a 2-3 step image tutorial would have been good. It wasn't clear to me when i was fixing or upgrading something when i had multiple "Greens"
nice puzzle
hilarious, love the music, fun mechanics, beautiful art! Also, twistedly cute.. ha! great job
nice game
super fun, i think i didn't quite get the mechanic as i got stuck on level 1. Super smooth though, and thanks for making an html5 version!
super simple, great art style, polished execution, definitely fun.. solid entry!
very cool, slightly unsettling, very good mood. Nice entry! Only gripe is that it would be fun to step up the time scale a bit to make a bit faster
so simple but so fun. my daughter and i took turns playing and both loved it!
cute, lofi but does the trick.
great game, it was really hard to dodge the alien-gremlin things! overall it was really good
ha, amusing. needs to keep letting me dig a bigger and bigger hole though.
kind of fun, was having trouble figuring out how to bury the zombie steaks
yeah the part where i get devoured by a cat-come-green-alien is a positively terrifying use of only a few pixels.
cool, big plus for letting me customize my character!
cute and challenging... damn that mouse.. gonna catch him.. *grumble grumble*
cute game
like the visuals and fun
pretty nice left-field entry.. very odd, but very satisfying. Only suggestion is that once i had my ramp lined up i just kept sending cars into the hole and didn't really have to alter it. Would have been good to have some buried static bodies that forced me to get creative at some point
the little guy i was chasing was cute.. i didn't really want to hurt him, but i liked the experience of him running off into the dark repeatedly.. that was cool.
awesome concept, clever and challenging. a great entry!
wow, awesome job, you nailed the mood so well, my 9 year old ran out of the room when we got to the cavern with the tentacles! Awesome, although i admit after blowing the depth charges in the tunnel i couldn't figure out what was next
a good start, could be more challenging
fun! challenging too, i enjoyed grunting in frustration every time i died after 1 hit!
cute, the fishing mechanic, come key tapping mechanic was a bit confusing at first.. but a cute time waster
nice job! played a few levels, nice style and cool concept, and a fun start to build on! I love the mining animation
wow clever concept of using the loop, nice job!
Wow super dooper out-of-box thinking. This brings back memories of the early 90s for me at the local pizza shop (sadly i was a button masher and had similar success in your game). Also A+ for web game. So nice to not install untrusted code on my machine.
neat concept! I think if you made the center gun's rotation freely controlled by mouse, you could crank up the intensity and it would be super fun. It just felt a bit tedious rotating around at a fixed rate. Overall, though, awesome playabe entry!
Fun game, hilarious theme. We actually did a pretty much almost the same style game "The Circle".. great entry!
neat concept, except i couldn't figure out how to complete level 3 as i wasn't able to join tracks
Great job on this! It is very similar, but the inverse of our game!! Great minds think alike!
nice little puzzle game!
clever concept, a bit more explanation in the beginning would help
rough cut, but amusing!
nice little racer game
pretty fun game, challenging as you have to anticipate the ships before releasing your rocket! Great entry!
wow amazing job, really clever. I am amazed you could build this in a weekend!
Really cool concept, hard to figure out how to make it work though.. maybe a bit more arcade physics would help
Nice concept, feels good. Maybe need a way to make gameplay more engaging though
wow, great job, really fun, great look, great sound!
visual was nice but not really sure where the "game" part was.
hilarious
neat, very playable, brain teaser!
Wow , super simple and fun. Could be a bit more challenging, but maybe that was coming (have too many games to rate lol!)
Fun little game!
hilarious, nice job!
Nice train loop.. i wasn't able to put a gatling gun on.. which was a bit disappointing! Maybe a little bit more of a quick tutorial popup?
you did a good job creating a mood!
cute, control scheme was a bit awkward for me, but definitely felt "solid". nice job!
Looks really nice, but i wasn't hearing any sound effects, just music. Nice job on such a short timeline
Cute! Fun little game.. not too close to the theme though, but fun!
I had some issues on the webgl version, couldn't figure out how to use the pic axe (it kept freezing) so couldn't really rate very well. Seems like a neat idea tho
Kind of cool, the car was super hard to control, but i could see if i spent more time i would get better. Nice Job!
That was fun, simple, and challenging. Also very clever application of the theme! Well done!
Neat concept.. although it didn't feel like i could 'master' the looping at all, just waiting for it to randomly make something un-stoppable. If there was a way to work a loop (or at least something more discernable.. sometimes there were nice loops, sometimes not), then it would feel a bit stronger
Cute game.. took a minute to figure out the controls (except mouse). I loved the look/feel. hilarious!
interesting, although i ran out of time trying to get stealh to run.. cool idea i think tho
Cool, nice little entry! I got chopped down pretty quick.. wish i could at least punch one of those dudes..
Wow super cool game / concept!
Cute, lots of fun dodging the doggies! Bad dog, don't take my skull!
Nice dungeon!
Like the art, homebrew style. Kinda very similar to Redbeard!
Cute and kinda fun.. I had toruble since i think i am hard-wired to expect the WASD to be relative to the player's local rotation, not global rotation. Also the M key seemed to be hard to grab. Overall a nice entry though!
On a Mac it is not finding the com.badlogix.gdx.ApplicationListener .. maybe you didnt' bundle LibGDX in your jar file?
What a lovely little game. Very nicely done!
cool, and hard! and big thanks for web game!
nice start, hopefully you get time to build on it!
Love the simple feel, big bonus for web games.. and .. .GoLang compiled to JS .. nice ;)
Good job, kind of fun to float around until i got blasted by the lasers! kind of made me wish i had some lasers too
Nice music, i kinda just wanted to wander around.. Jumping would have been fun
This is awesome! Everything about it, the art, the music, the mood.. so awesome. Very well done. Also, HUGE thanks for providing a JAR.. something us Mac people can easily deal with!
Wow, very cool, very innovative and +1 for involving your kids (my daughters help me on my ldj games too!)
Nice job! trading and bartering are fun, but picking pockets is the way to go!
wow this was fun, clever, cute, and dark. Great Job!
neat game, had a bit of trouble with the super simple controls
evil deer.. love it. and nice little strategy game
My kids loved this game. nuff said. i had a hard time getting them to stop
Wow, great job in jus a weekend
I couldn't quite get the hang of the grappling hook, but it was a nice moody atmosphere, and i like the grenade.
Cool concept, I like the robot, and thank you for making a web game.
cute, i can't seem to break 7 seconds..
Very tight, super well made. Not so sure about the theme, but still the game i have played the longest so far. Nice job! I am amazed this was done in a weekend.
Wow this is definitely the most complete game i have played so far. Great theme, great execution, fun, balanced. Well done!
this is fantastic. I think so far my favorite mashup, and a really challenging game!
Also, thank you for making a web game. On a mac, it is sad i have to pass over so many games since they aren't available for mac.
nice, that drift track was hard.. but i was starting to get it.
And, top prize for making the most hilariously perfect "cat-in-your-way" model/enemy... so good... so true. Cats WOULD ruin my drift track if they could.
Nice tunes! It took a bit to figure out, but i like the traced line for shots.
Cool concept, controls were a bit challenging, and it overall hosed my poor old 2011 iMac with those serious graphics!
cute! I had a little trouble getting the bugs to move. Also i had to ALT-TAB and kill to get out on mac.
Overall nice job!
Neat, intro text is a bit patience-testing, but i had some fun! Good job!
Kind of neat, good atmosphere. I had a little slowness from all the fog on my olde computer. I died trying to figure out how to switch back from the broom! But shooting the black creatures was satisfying!
Neat game and concept
Very Fun! Love the chomp maneuver!

Wow, great mood.. i had a bit of trouble figuring out what to do next, got stuck after seeing the octopus book. I think maybe a bit more clues would have been nice, and maybe a bit more indication of what was clickable for us slow folks. Overall great work! So much in such a short time!

cool concept! i like the ability to plan before the battle. I wish the gun was a bit more fun to use (maybe rebounding bullets or something to make it more than just a pea-shooter). Great Job!

neat! the filament looked really cool. There was a weird gray thing that kept showing up on the web version on half the screen
