This is an awesome little "farming simulator" :smiley: I love how you fertilize the soil with blood, definitely brings out the humor of this!

I got tossed off the edge really quick though.

It's pretty much impossible to play in a browser because of the hotkey conflicts.

The combine controls reasonably well. It sounds realistic. Game looks pretty good.

There's at least one thing I think you could have improved to make the game feel much better: give the player better feedback when they do something! I couldn't tell if I was planting seeds or fertilizing successfully. Make the fields look different when the player does it, or play a small sound to make it clear. It doesn't feel that good to play because I don't feel like I'm doing anything.

I love the title.

@KScorp Yeah, the HTML5 port was a last minute rush job. Didn't catch the Ctrl bug until after contest ended. :sweat_smile: Weird that the visual field states and status bars weren't updating for you, but we'll investigate. Thanks for the feedback! :smiley:

@Lightyn I noticed the status bars, and the fields _did_ update. I just had to look _really_ closely to notice. That's the problem! It should be obvious. (Also, simple status bar updates are boring.)

@KScorp Gotcha. Totally agree with you on that. We'll be cleaning up the visuals and adding in some more of the feedback systems we'd originally planned in an upcoming patch.

Unfortunately my shitty laptop can't run this game properly, so I can't rate it. Too bad the game don't have a low settings option.
