I truly think this demo was far too restrictive , I think that this is probably fine but the amount of content is extremely limited and restrictive on what we can actually combine and the demo is worse off for it.
I think this game could be something really cool!
The aesthetics are really great, and I think merge mechanics are always fun. I'd be curious to know if any other mechanics are planned; it seems like there's not much of a reason to walk around or do anything with the player character when you can drag and merge all of the objects with your mouse.
I think some nice chill music and simple sound effects would go a LONG way in making the game feel more polished. The aesthetics are sooo good, so it would be awesome if there was audio to match.
I played the game on stream here around 2 minutes in:
Game is pretty cute but a lot shorter than I expected.
The concept is interesting but the items feel limited and the lack of sounds killed a little bit of my experience.
Like the cute style though
Hi Nova games, this is such a cute little game, I love the art style and the run animation of the player character! It did take me a little bit to work out what to do though, maybe a little bit of handholding right at the start (even on top of the pop up in the top left of the screen) to show the player exactly what to do would help out a bit?
Maybe something like giving the player 2 items that will merge and not letting them progress further (stop spawning the little guys that give items) until they have combined them.
Outside of this (and some sounds and other polish things which I'm sure you have a big todo list of already) I can see the full version of this being really fun!
Hello everyone! Just a reminder, we have updated our game to have tool tips!! So please make sure you have installed the latest version of Ooble Gardens before playing and giving feedback!
Thank you to those who have played Ooble Gardens so far!
Henyoo!!! Thank you letting us try your game for feedback quest!
Character designs drew me in so much! Didn't really know what I was getting into but it was pretty easy to mess around and figure it out. However, an intro instruction would definitely be helpful in this case so the players know how to navigate around the tools and what they can do etc. Overall well done with the demo. Looking forward to how this game progresses.

Hi!! Thanks for playing! We're super sorry that we forgot to add a comment to our submission that we had updated our game a few days ago, implementing tool tips! (Which should've fixed this issue you had while playing)
Thank you for taking the time to play though!
Hello, Mayshing here co-host and streamer of FBQ.
This is such an adorable game, love the character design and the world setup, a great proof of concept hope to see it grow and blossom. Some feedback is even though i am very very familiar with farm sim type of genre, I was still a bit lost on what to do in the beginning completely fresh into the title. Here's our playthru try out. Hope it provides good insight. Time stamp is on the video description.
