Good theming for the game. I thought it was just slightly too challenging to keep up with clicking to keep the windmill spinning at the beginning, my fingers got tired!

Yeah I get not everyone likes as much of a challenging game, especially for just a clicker during playtests I used multiple values for manual clicks to do to the timer, but anything more than what it is made it unlosable in my opinion. As soon as you buy the first 1-2 abilities you really dont even need to manually click anyway but maybe thats just my personal bias of liking more challenging games coming out

Cool game! I just wish there was a way to increase the timer with your clicks for the start since it felt very unforgiving. I did really like the story and had fun playing it! Great job!

Im curious as to what you mean by a way to increase the timer? If you click anymore than around 3 times a second at the beginning it does increase, I tried having it easier but across all the playtest sessions I found it was basically unlosable if it was any easier

Good game, although i wish there was an ability in the early game to increase the timer with each click slightly.

Thank you, The early game was designed to be a struggle though as soon as you get your first abilities you dont really need to keep clicking the mill manually, the burger ability increases the amount of time each click adds and the energy drink acts as an auto clicker. Without it being super hard to keep going early game in my experience it was way to easy and almost impossible to lose. Thanks again!

Fun clicking game. I wish my clicks increased the timer a bit more. Good job.

I like the idea and the story you put into this game and I can see you adding more progression to it. There was alot of clicking but it felt a bit too unforgiving if you stopped clicking for a moment after all the effort. But other than that great job on it!

Unique gameplay loop, a bit exhausting to keep clicking, but a nice entry!

A cozy game! It's got nice graphics, a soothing song, and an easily understandable gameplay loop. Good work!

Hey cool game! I loved the cozy vibe of it and the dog  I would say is my favorite part! One thing is I wouldn't start with a huge wall of text and the desert is a little bland and hard to look at. Maybe just adding a few cacti here and there would help. Overall great game!

Developer

Trust me I hated the text walls just as much, As a solo dev theres a lot of features and scope that never made it and I was in a severe rush on the last day trying to tie everything together, The "Tutorial" was added with like an hour before the deadline, Thank you for playing!

Another incremental game, nice! I like this! Super simple and can end up with a bunch of stuff to click which is fun. Only thing I dislike is the speed at which the windmill goes down (since it's seconds). Made my finger hurt from so much clicking early on and to generally maintain it even with purchases lmao. Cool stuff tho!

Developer

Thank you! If I had a bit more time I had many more plans to make it harder to keep the time up early game besides solely clicking however I didnt have time to get them polished enough so I sort of just had to make it a bit harder click wise early game so it wasnt impossible to lose, thanks again!

Very chill music and game, but I had difficulty clicking a lot. It was still fun tho :)

Developer

thank you! Yeah it’s meant to be kind of difficult until you buy your first ability
