I enjoyed the core gameplay a lot! I like these kinds of resource management/trading games and I definitely think it's a solid base to build on. A nice simple visual style, nice sound design and music too.

Main critiques I have is that the volume was pretty loud and there were no audio settings, and that there could be some quality of life improvements with turning in/collecting resources, though I understand with the time constraints.

Overall, it was enjoyable! Great work!

This is great stuff! I also accidentally lost a lot of resources and could only unlock the frozen forest, but super unique mechanics nonetheless! Great entry

Nice game! I like the idea with the unlockable areas a lot, the audio and the graphics were also nice! Sadly I lost quite a lot of resources in the beginning, as I did not realize that there can only be a single item on the ground at a time.

Nice little core loop for your first game!

Not a single iron nugget survived when I was done with this sucker. Great job for your first jam!! 

Hey everyone, thanks for the feedback!
I'm genuinely surprised that you like the game, that was my first game jam ever so I'm glad you like it!

The new update that I'm currently working on will contain an Upgrades Panel where you can buy some upgrades for COINs, such as Sell items anywhere you want, Ability to dash, etc, and a savefile system to save all your progress!

this was a lot of fun

Sweet little gathering game. I love trading in stuff I gather for rewards, so I really enjoyed it! I hope you keep working on it so we can all play more!

• (+) I liked being able to see the worth of the items as they became collectable - it allowed me to decide what I wanted to pick up. Worked well with the limited inventory
• (+) The environment was very easy to read and it was easy to understand what resource were where just by looking.

• (-) I wish the trading/selling experience was a bit smoother. There was a lot of clicking involved when selling, since you had to select each individual item in your inventory list to sell. Would have loved a “sell all” button, or that it your inventory auto-selects the next available slot. It was also starting to become a little far to go back and sell - maybe a new sell outpost in each new zone?

Great work!

cute game!! i played on macos. i think you need to change the window settings of the project to show the viewport at the intended resolution, it was super zoomed out for me. i like the idea of gathering resources to unlock new areas, but i wish there was something more you could do with the resources other than just trading them. loved the music and the vibes. great work!!
