Take a moment to write down what you'd do differently next time, so you can start to make good Dare habits :) Don't let any of this discourage you, but here are some things I noticed: The weeds can sometimes spawn on top of flowers. I don't know if this was intentional, or not, but it looked a little strange. Also, when the game resets, I don't think the day counter is reset at the same time. When I looped from the end of the game to the beginning, the day 1 field had a lot of weeds, as though it were still the last day. I also think there's something off with the hitboxes or hit detection. I could only collide with the weeds at their top and bottom borders, and only with my top and bottom borders. I eventually got the hang of it, but it seemed wrong. The art was very cute and the sounds were good (though some variation in the picking noise would be nice). The music was pretty repetitive, but I think you know that.","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Quorusa","author_uid":"1095609","time":"2018-08-20T20:54:27Z","epoch":1534798467,"modified":1534798467,"text":"@incobalt Thank you.\nI want to learn how it works.
