I really enjoyed getting all the monsters, and they were all very unique and interesting! I was a little confused when the monsters first spawned, a little warning on what is about to happen would help I think. Otherwise a really fun game :)
I always wanted Pokemons to be my pets. ^_^
The art is super well done, having pets with different evolutions and the artwork was really good and I loved it. Awesome work! But somethings are a bit off, like the player movement could be a little less slidey. At one point, I gave the tree too many fertilizers and the tree vanished with me having way too many coins. Idk if that was intended or a bug. And I was having difficulty in finding the wood after the monsters destroyed them the first time they attacked.
Overall, a pretty good idle clicker. Good Game!
Great game, it's satisfying to collect the monsters and watch them grow. Only thing I would change is to have the player be a little less slidey, but that's a minor nitpick. The art is really well done too.
It was such a cute game. I enjoyed watching the tree grow big and the monsters develop.
This was a really cute game to try! Liked the monsters/pet design!
Very cute game. It would've been nice with some kind of warning though xD I was shopping and chilling, when suddenly I was swarmed by monsters, coming from nowhere, and eaten! R.I.P
I'd really appreciate it, if you'd check out my entry!

Love this type of games.
Great game. I was already having fun with the idle game of raising pets and growing a tree but when the monsters spawn and your pets have to defend the tree, that was a really nice twist. Obviously its a little rough, the pets would sometimes get stuck on top of each other if I wasn't careful, sometimes they would get stuck in the water and I couldn't feed them etc. But the concept is great, the pet designs with multiple evolutions are fantastic. Really good.
i loved it!
the creatures designs are amazing! i do feel like the background could be improved with some simple changes, like not having 2 shades of blue (you can make all sea insted of seeing the sky in a top down game) and unifying the color pallet so it all feels like it belong together. some minigames could also be really nice to break the monotomy, like petting the pets or playing a game with them? or the pets could produce fertilizer? it's werid having to buy it
even so, i loved just seeing what each creature would transform into. very nice!
^ i wrote this without getting to the storm part. when i read in the comments i downloaded the game and played again. it still took a long time to get there, but maybe i wasn't making smart decisions with my money. but i'm glad i did, the atmosphere of the game is amazin! great work
Funnily enough, pets producing fertilizer was part of the original idea (implied by the soft serve shape). Had to chop some ideas due to time.
This was such a cute game! I loved the art and music and the gameplay was straightforward and fun! I did find that sometimes I would lose my pets behind each other/the big tree and not be able to interact with them when i wanted to. I also wasnt sure when the storm would come into play because there was so much time in the first stage haha, but after the first round I got the gist
This was an absolute treat to play. I love the art, the music is nice and relaxing, the gameplay is very intuitive and straightforward.
The only thing that got me a bit flustered was I accidentally called all my pets to a single spot, and then the ones that were hungry, I couldn't position myself in a way that made sure they got fed. But other than that, I really loved this entry - Fantastic work!
cool game, feels like advanced cookie clicker.
everything was going so well and then the monster game-overed me :'(
cool game!
the bell was cute.
i like the music, intriguing mix of dungeon synth and lofi, haunting and chill and at once...
lovely designs!
audio was broken in browser version for me, but windows build went flawlessly.
i only have one standard audio device installed.
it's called Realtek High Definition Audio.
might be a browser issue too. i don't know.
only had it on this one so far
This was so chill and fun!! I enjoy feeding the animals and relaxing haha
Nice and cozy game! Art style works well in this, fun to watch them grow bigger. In the browser the audio had small bugs but did not bother me. Good job!
I checked it out more in more detail. Used chrome for this. The audio bug occurs when i scroll down the itch.io page to look description, but seems like it does not happen in game. In firefox it does not happen when scrolling down the itch.io page only when i open other tab. I think this is not a bug that you need to be very concerned about. Very bizarre bug. :D
It's weird that why does it happen with other than default audio for you. Used the default and usb audio interface and I only got the weird scrolling audio bug or tab bug.
I really enjoyed this game! The art style is adorable, and it was a lot of fun watching my pets grow and evolve. The storm caught me off guard, and I wasn’t prepared for how intense it was, but that just added to the excitement. I did encounter some bugs, like pets getting stuck or overlapping, which made feeding a bit tricky, but overall it was a great experience. The mix of calm farming and sudden chaos kept me on my toes, and I love how well the theme was integrated. Fantastic job on this, and I look forward to seeing future updates!
I like the idea a lot and it was cool seeing multiple evolutions of your pets. The initial wave like others have said is crazy, it didn't seem like my pets should've died but they did (2 full grown). And the next wave came very quickly after before I could figure out how to actually repair the shop. Great job!
Cool game!
Overall this is a good concept. Well done!
hey thanks for your feedback. We definitely wanted to have a shock value for the jam submission. We will experiment and fine tune the gameplay based on all these feedback after the submission is over
I am so mad. Here I was enjoying my pets making them grow, it was lovely, they all had names, and there were mummys and daddys, we were happy. I would say I did this for 15min before THAT happened. YOU KNOW WHAT THAT IS..... So mad....Well Done.
This is what games are meant to do. To make people have an emotional reaction to be involved. I loved it.
thank you so much for the nice feedback 😊
