  • Cool concept ! Nice art, nice menus and UI, nice audio and music. A game on an hexagonal grid is a cool technical challenge. A bit sad that there was no AI tho, playing that alone was a bit sad. Also I would end up hoarding vegetables I don't need, leading to always having only one option to collect, since all other vegetable "slots" were occupied by vegetables I didnt need. Cool concept ! Well executed game.

In interesting game. I normally think of hex grids as board games, so seeing it here is refreshing!

I found the controls unintuitive on a hex grid, and kept defaulting to the 4 cardinal directions.

Also, I had to play by myself, so any sort of tension was a bit lacking, though that’s on my side and not to do with you - I can see this being a fun game with someone else.

The audio and art are wonderful - great work on this!

Really cool concept for a game! Unfortunately, I don't have another person I can really play it with, so I can't give the best feedback, but I wonder what you could do with a turn-based system on this. That could be pretty fun. It'd change the pacing of the game for sure, but it could also be pretty cool. Anyway, great submission, good looking art, nice soundtrack, good job!

We actually went back and forth in deciding if we should make it a turn-based or real-time game but we couldn't make it interesting enough as a turn-based game so we made it real-time. Maybe we could think of something now that there's no deadline haha. Thanks for trying it out!

I love the petty objective "Gaslight vegetables into going in to your stew and stop your brother from achieving his dream" and the title. This game is great.

We were actually a bit hesitant on making a local multiplayer since it would be harder for people to get the full experience but we're glad you liked it ^_^

What does the crow do?

Reply
Seven SardinesDeveloper1 year ago

Hi! The crow empties the cauldron for when you accidentally put a wrong ingredient (or to screw with your enemy hehe). Thanks for trying out our game!

Ah, I thought the crow ate the veggies so I was afraid to lead it around.

We could have made it clearer in the tutorial. Thanks for the feedback!

Hi! I got an error about “WebGL context lost” so unfortunately I couldn’t load the game, but the music did play through and I love y’all’s choice with the music as I assume it matches that fun outdoorsy vibe from the cover image!

Hi! We've looked for solutions and it seems like we either need to reupload it with another renderer or there could be an issue with your browser.
If you haven't noticed, we added a windows version that you can download if you still wanna try. Thanks for raising this issue and for the comments!

Unfortunately I have a Macbook :’D but I guess it might be Chrome or the extensions on my Chrome (incognito mode failed)
