Neat game! The graphics is very consistent and the concept is interesting! Though sometime when enemies get stuck in the walls is kinda sad ;_;

Really interesting take on the theme, I absolutely love farming games with a passion so seeing one for the jam was really nice, once you get your crops going you start making some serious cash, the only problem I had was that the enemy spawning was a big inconsistent and they would spawn on top of me of right next to me to where I couldn't react to kill them before they hurt me, but other than that I had a really fun time playing this! Good submission!

Interesting concept as others have mentioned! The only issue was that sometimes enemies spawn on top of the player so I always ended up dying eventually. Maybe an indicator or a "grace period" before they can hurt you would be awesome.

Visuals are simple but stylish!

Nice work on the game! There was a bug where the enemies would spawn on top of you or glitch through you which made the combat a little unwieldy but overall I liked the concept. Having to manage all your crops and trying to expand while fighting enemies is a good idea for the core gameplay.

A really nice farming game. The enemies spawning could be improved a bit, but otherwise was great fun. Good job!

This is a creative game, and I like the idea. The enemy's spawning directly on you is pretty rough though, really kills motivation to finish when enemies spawn inside you and hurt you with no time to react. I think with just some fixes for the enemies this game would be a lot of fun

Fun game but the enemies sometimes spawn inside the player ;_; Also it would have been cool to use the money I have collected.

I feel like this was a great game. My only problem is that the enemy spawning was buggy and would spawn in the walls or me. Besides that it was a blast!
