I really like the fact that the animations feel like they're stop motion.\nThe guns are cool but the animations for the reloading could be more clear.\n\nThings are run pretty smoothly for me, the combat is simple but very functionable, though FOV slider is must for me. \nI was pretty confused about the planting mechanic but things start making more sense after the first game.\nLots of great ideas here with the mix of harvesting recourses on the fly, plenty of replay-ablity thanks to the options given to the player\n\nOverall great work from the team I would be proud of this.","format":"md","likes":6,"spam":"N"},{"id":903051,"author_name":"dkdwrek","author_uid":"dkdwrek","epoch":1673309157,"text":"Nice game!

The highlights for me was definitely the art style, animation and the gameplay. For me I think the sensitivity to control the character with the mouse was a little awkward, and the music sounded a bit empty to me.

Great SFX :)\n\ni love the game design idea, but maybe reduce the number of enemie per wave at the begining of the game . Players has to play very long to the shooting part before experimenting the farming part. \nThe mouse mouvement was a too hight for me, especially for a fps , and a button to change it would be great.\n\nBut overall, as i said previouslly, great idea and great polised details :)\n![Capture d\u2019\u00e9cran 2023-01-12 160621.png](\/\/\/raw\/d93\/94\/z\/5641a.png)","format":"md","likes":4,"spam":"N"},{"id":916797,"author_name":"ChanJohann","author_uid":"chanjohann","epoch":1673552551,"text":"Thanks for all of feedback guys!

I love the concept and I feel you executed it really well, with a nice balance. The art style was the perfect level of horrifying, I love the choppiness of it and the grotesque faces, it was a really unique touch in the best way. Props on having a tutorial as well, they are honestly so nice to have in a jam. I will say I did find the camera could sometimes be very shaky, especially on the farmland. I actually had to stop playing early than I would have liked as I did get a bit motion sick. Overall though this was fun, I feel I've seen similar concepts of harvesting and fighting but this really pulled it off so much more than any others I have seen, nice work","format":"md","likes":3,"spam":"N"},{"id":928305,"author_name":"Sublustris","author_uid":"sublustris","epoch":1674566129,"text":"Oh! great entry!
