There really isn't too much to the game, so I can't give as much feedback as I usually do, but I have a few points! For one; I think the dialogue was the highlight of the game for me -- even though there wasn't a whole ton of it, I was excited to hear what came next (:laughing:), it fits the game really well and made me play a *whole ton* longer than I would've! Unfortunately, I *was* left wishing there could've been a little more to the gameplay, as after a while it gets repetitive with nothing else to grab your attention; I don't know if there was an ending, but I sought after it and gave up just a little while in because it was taking to long for anything new\/more interesting-er to happen.\n\nOtherwise, I did enjoy it!

When I was publishing it I actually felt bad about the quality of the audio, but, since a lot of people here liked it, that means my worries were baseless. Thanks everyone again for the kind reception!\n\nAnd I'd like to point out again that the harvesting is endless and it is the only aspect of the game, so don't make the mistake of trying to harvest it all in hope for something new happening - it's just as simple and plain as it could be.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":927477,"author_name":"VerttiXPertti","author_uid":"verttixpertti","epoch":1674396202,"text":"To add to the other feedback I think making the mouse click an input when there is need for moving the mouse feels clumsy.
