The farming system is also pretty intuitive, the in-game messages were pretty useful to teach how to play (on top of being funny).\r\rIt was fun trying to figure out how to manage my crops efficiently, but either I'm bad at it or there are a few balancing issues - I gave up after 15mn and 260 crops. The main problem to me is that half-grown crops sometimes produce 1 crop only in return, meaning I have planted them in vain.\r\rNow you had me playing for 15mn so I can't deny it, overall the game was fun :)"},{"author_name":"tyrants.not.found.team","author_uid":"66002","time":"Dec 15, 2015 @ 5:03pm","epoch":1450198680,"text":"Yeah, this was great and very creative, very innovative play with the theme restrictions.

I would have loved some mechanic to buy bigger watering cans.Hold more feed. etc. Just some way so I could start balancing multiple states for the crops.
