A downloadable game for Windows

--NEW UPDATE!--

New update just released! Check out all the new features in the devlog!

--FARMIN' AND SLAYIN'--

What could go wrong after you got yourself a gigantic debt and get the chance to repay it by working on a suspicious abandoned farm?
Well, apparently a lot can go wrong in a place like this. During the day everything is okay, you can be all good farming and bonding with your flowers, but as soon as the sun goes down you better start running, because these little plants are not what they seem, they have the power of spiritual demons and will do what they can to get you, and if that's not enough problems for an evening you also have to worry about a bunch of wild demons lurking around each biome.

Neh, it's still better than that other cleaning job at that boring soup restaurant, but anyways, if you really want to survive and more importantly pay that ginormous loan you will need to know a couple of things.

--CORE MECHANICS--

For starters you will need to start planting your own little cute flowey demons, for this you will need a suitable plot, so start chopping some trees and get a couple of those abandoned plots a new face!
To get some seeds it's another story though, you will need to wait until nighttime and start hunting some demons to get their respective seeds.

After a while your plants will need some water to keep growing, so grab some stones and start making a bunch of containers for that water. To start getting some just wait until it starts raining and grab a container to start filling it, just like that!

If you get hurt you will need a little help, but sadly there is no one there that will just give  you a pill and cure your wounds, this is the real world kiddo, here we get some heart flowers and eat them to get better, just grab and mix a bunch of different seeds and you will have a Heart Seed, either plant it or use it right away to get some bones back on their places.

Last but not least you will need to take into account that having too much of the same thing is not great, selling too many seeds of the same type will depreciate its value very quickly, but there is a solution, just upgrade your base at the center of your farm to get better sales! You wonder how does that work? Well, I wouldn't pay as much to a suspicious homeless farmer compared to a well stablished agriculturist with a fancy farm.

--BIOMES--

There are 4 Biomes that can be generated around your farm:

+ The Snowy Valley: A well rounded biome with good resources but the rain turns into snow.

+The Misty Forest: A tree-dense biome with little stone but enough wood to build an empire.

+The Verdant Plains: A flat space full of rocks but with not many trees around.

+The Ocher Forest: A nicely filled forest with decent amount of rocks`.

I had quite a fun time with this game! I found the difficulty quite nice although I barely survived normal mode on my first playthrough. 

I did multiple runs after that to familiarise myself more with the game and explore the other biomes! The sprite work is pretty and the game is very polished. 

I also like how there are multiple ways to play this game. You can either play like a farmer or just go straight out slaying. Managed to beat it under 3 days too which is quite fun to do!

My only problem with this game is the controls. I had quite a tough time on my first playthrough figuring out the controls so it would be great if they were specified in the menu or when you just enter a new game! 

Overall had a really fun time and am going to try and see how fast I can beat it even more!

Thanks for trying out our game. I am glad you had some fun playing it and  thanks for taking the time to really understand the game too.


You are right about the controls, we should add a tutorial or find a way to make the controls more clear.


Btw, sorry for taking so long to reply, I didn't noticed your comment.

This is pretty fun so far, but there's one thing I don't understand. How do you use a heart seed to heal? I can pick them up, plant them, water them, and then pluck the flowers to get more seeds, but I can't figure out how to heal with them.  

To use the heart seed you have to hold X when you pick it up.
Thank you very much for giving the game a try.

Ah, that did it! Thanks!! 

One thing I might suggest after playing it a few times is that the game is pretty short. If you ever decide to update this it would be neat to be able to customize the amount of debt you start with. I got $10,000 in less than a week. I wonder how long it would take to get $100,000 or $500,000? You could even have an endless mode to see how much cash you could rack up before you die. 

That is a great suggestion!!
Both things won't be hard to implement. Thank you!!
