LD52 — Harvest

Not another farmer game by neowhoru 2023-01-16T17:52:45Z

Lovely pixel art and easy to understand, but the audio was a little loud. Good job!

Simple game, but very clean and well done. I understood what was happening most of the time, so massive props to the UI.

What a lovely game! Really enjoyed the way the trees swayed and the bushes reacted to the player walking through them. I also wasn't expecting so much variation on the items that you could interact with, really well done.

This is a really neat idea! Felt great to play and the upgrade card was very rewarding -- however, I personally would've preferred to get the upgrades over the course of a run rather than after each run, but that's just me! Well done!

@skigfx yeah, all solo -- used some graphical assets that I then modified in Aseprite, as well as using a combination of audio from freesound and my own sounds. That's why I opted out of Graphics+Audio and didn't do the compo.

@youjing thanks for playing and for the feedback, I'll make sure to make it more readable in the future!

@realtanhen Wow thank you so much, I'm actually planning on expanding it into a full game! Thanks for playing, and for the feedback.

@ava-skoog Thank you so much for playing and for the detailed feedback! The O2 bar is the target score, but the reason you were completing levels without filling the bar is sometimes there are "Grants" available on each level (the upgrades/rewards) - you only get those if you fill the bar all the way. I'll admit it's a little confusing at first. You are right, though, the grid doesn't get randomised until you move to the next level.

I'm really glad you enjoyed the game, the grants are randomised choices, yes!

I'll make a note of the small text, I think a few people found the text/UI a little hard to read.

I opted out of audio because I used a lot of sounds from freesound.org, but I did make the music! Although I also used some samples in the music, which again is why I opted out -- but I'm glad you enjoyed it. I did forget to set the music to loop, sorry about that!

Thanks again for playing :)

Fun little game, looks absolutely fantastic. I especially love how you integrated the colours of the itch page, I know it's a small thing, but it made the game a lot more immersive despite not being in fullscreen. A prompt to restart would've been nice, because for a while I thought it was just a very long death animation!
