Fun, simple game! I got 49 seconds on my first try but I'm on a touchpad :D

Really simple, but really fun! The only thing I'd want is more levels.
Also, I got a score of 46s on my first try.

Straightforward game and it works well. First time I succeeded it was 50 seconds, but after a couple more tries I ended up with 18 seconds! I could have gotten faster too but those last crops are sometimes really tricky to hit! Good job

23 seconds on my third try! I like that the scythe is both your defensive weapon and your farming tool. If you wanted to add more levels, you could add fields of different shapes and/or more scarecrows; maybe also some music.

nice little game, i wis hwe get more information on what the crop we harvest do but overall game the gameplay is fluid and fun !

Fun and well made, the game is a nicely contained game :) the gameplay is fun and a bit frantic. The grahpics are really nice and clean.

I really loved this. This is exactly what a game jam game should be. Th idea fits the theme perfectly but what I'm more impressed by is how simple it is. You managed to think of something that was really fun to play but also manageable to create in a very short time. The art is simple but it's clear what everything is. I would happily play this for another hour trying to get a new high score.

My only suggestion would be to make a custom cursor because I often lost my mouse in the business of the crops. I think that would be a big quality of life update.

Overall this is genuinely one of my favourite games I've seen for any jam. It might not be the biggest or the most polished game but I just think it perfectly captures the idea of seeing how much you can achieve in such a short period of time. I'd love to see how you could expand upon this idea if you spent more time on it. I can imagine this being a really fun local multiplayer party game where you have to try and harvest more than your friends on a bigger map. You could add powerups similar to those in Boomerangfu and hitting your friends could stun them for a short time.

Simple game that worked well. It would have been nice to have a visible timer while I'm playing. I liked the graphics a lot :)

Fun game! Wasn't able to beat your score :sweat_smile: You must have the algorithm down :laughing: love the simple art & gameplay. I think the shoot sound was a bit to harsh but overall great job!

@starboihooch Wow, that's high praise thanks alot! I do think the game is just a proof of concept though so far. I was gonna initally create different plant enemy types that rise from the ground in waves but didn't have enough time so just put all I had made in the game at once. I was worried about the map looking quite cluttered so good you pointed that out. Cheers for playing!

@jenny-b The timer in game was definitely a consideration but the map already had alot on screen so I deceided against it, thanks for playing though!

@grotfang The crops don't do anything, you're just supposed to harvest them haha

I played for longer than I probably should have, but I'm proud of my 16 second run :medal:

Straightforward concept, solid execution. I like how the art is clean and consistent - doesn't need a lot of frills to capture the feeling of the theme well.

The fact that it takes two passes to completely harvest a plant and the rotating projectiles aren't 100% consistent are nice design choices that keep attempts from feeling too same-ey. The fact that the scarecrow's movement was completely determined by my own positioning was also nice - it magically occupied the exact spot I wanted to throw a scythe, but I knew it only got there because of how I decided to move.

It definitely got me in that loop of trying to bring down my time, thanks for the fun game!

@beats ok i get it know ! thats's change everything ^^ i was thinking that it was juste a survive the longest game gathering all crop really add somme challenge and make it way more fun

Simple concept done well ! The audio was a bit too much sometimes (at the beginning where one throw destroy a lot of crops). I see some good times here, my best was 21.

Got 43 on my first try and I thought I know how to play it now then got 50+ on my 2nd try, lol. Simple but great.

Great - very simple and straightforward. Solid mechanics. Good execution!

Fun, simple, and retro! Kind of an ideal combo for a game jam, in my opinion. High marks for the classic sound effects as well!

Wonderful jam game which matches the theme perfectly. I like the sprites and the color. Everything feels consistent. It's simple to pick up and it makes you play again and again. Could not get past 22 seconds but I enjoyed every second of it. Well done!


Will I get a reward for beating your record? ;) The game is really fun and simple. I really like the fact that every aspect of the game works towards building this great retro aesthetic. I got bored after a few minutes of playing and it probably won't be in my top 10 games this jam, but hey, it was a splendind work anyway and I had a lot of FUN!

Hi, good to see you completed the game, solo competitor like me !! Game play was easy and easy to grasp the objective. Game play can be made more fun by making it challenging over time or introducing new enemies. Good effort on atleast completing all aspect of game like UI/Animation/sound

Short and sweet, simple but accessible and fun to play, with lots of potential to expand on. Super impressive creating this on your own. Great job!

Super fun small game! Don't know what to say about it honestly, everything just fits. Maybe a resart button would be nice as I tried to beat your score.

AND THEN I DID!


I think this is the shortest game in Jam lol. 25 seconds first try!

Great entry, minimalistic, but everything is well polished

@andidebob There is a restart button, it says above "r to restart"
