Very interesting game! I didn't get very far, still have to work on my spinning skills, but enjoyed the thrill. :D Really nice graphics. I would have loved some help from the state sometimes so I don't go bankrupt so fast. :))
Was a really fun and interesting game! Loved the wheel spin to gamble with, and how my wager determines the change of me landing on it! Sometimes i wasted $500, sometimes i snagged something for $0. Made me feel in complete control and i liked that! The tax man got me though, my farthest being 34 months. Very fun loop, Great Job!
I enjoyed playing this game :D, loved the fact that you choose how difficult and how fast paced you want to be, very smart choice, the game loop seemed to get a bit repetitive for me, but maybe I stopped too early, but some of the parts were very funny, a game I will get back certainly if developed further, amazing work ♥
I really liked that you could affect the wheel difficulty and choose where to stop it! Made you as the player feel very in control. It would have been nice to know how much the thing you bought was worth so you knew if it would be worth betting a lot or not, and I also think it would be nice to see "Upcoming tax" cost! I made it to day 33 at least and I had fun, great game overall!
I liked the idea! At first I was a little confused about what I had to do, but then it was really fun.
Really cool idea! I love the look of the game and the cackling of the tax man is perfectly evil. I found it pretty hard to get anything going before running out of money, but found the mechanic to be well thought out and executed.
love the concept and the visuals are super charming but my reaction time is way to horrible for this :sob: still great job tho i had fun!
Really cool game! I like the concept, I do want to play it more cuz I got stuck on month 10, but yeah. The only thing I would add is to be able to see how much the animals sell for before selling them, but other than that, solid game!!
Thanks so much for playing!! I definitely agree on the selling, maybe post jam I'll add that
Quite enjoyed it, I was definitely too greedy and was trying way too much to thread the needle with my $10 bid lol. I did find that selling animals was just more reliable than breeding as I never seemed to ever get my hands on animals of differing genders consitently enough so I would just sell them for a profit immediately.
Art style was cute and I appreciated all the names for the competetor bidders.
really liked the gameplay! thought this was a very creative game... well done !!!
This was such a unique use of the theme! I really liked the art style too.
I was a bit confused at the start, for example, I didn't know I could sell my animals. So maybe a small tutorial/guided section would have helped.
It was a good attempt at the theme, i like the concept and execution. One thing i would say is i HATE the taxman :D
Nice concept and execution! I made it to 18 months before that dastardly taxman took my farm.
Love the taxman’s cackle, 5/5 on audio for that alone.
Pretty interesting concept, I quite like it! Just about the right level of complexity for a jam I think, definitely wouldn't have made it any more complicated.
This was a good game! I liked the wheel spin mechanic. What I didn't like about this game is how it felt like an inevitable loss. If there was some kind of win condition like get to month 12 or get 2K or something it would've added replayability and incentive. Maybe this does exist but I don't remember it being clearly stated at the beginning and the tax man didn't mention it in any later dialogues.
Yea its a high score sort of game not a goal kind so people can aim for higher and higher month counts, i do get that some people dont like that kind though i just felt it was best for this game specifically
Cool concept! Love the farming vibe, but hate the farming finances!
I’m tempted to get real good and just hit every $0, but instead I just made it to month 9.
Fun use of the theme! I like how skill based it is (though I'm not very skillfull). I wish the cows aged faster, I guess?
waaaa the taxman took me farm :< this is a cool concept and thanks for letting me play! one day the farm will be mine
The taxman is going to show up in my nightmares... I managed to keep the farm for about 2 years but then my business got too unsustainable </3
I think that this was a really creative use of the theme! I love how there is both risk and skill expression involved in the gambling aspect, as if you're confident enough you don't have to wager as much money! Selling/breeding animals was great as well, and it made me sad everytime I had to get rid of my animals ]:
Admittedly, I was a little bit confused about what I was supposed to press at the start, but once I figured it out, it made sense hahah. I think my main request would be to be able to up the wager number a bit faster, like having higher increments than 10. At any rate, I really enjoyed the game overall, visuals and music were fun too!
Yea I get that a lot about the start perchance lol, I think a tutorial would have been good. Thanks so much for playing!!
Amazing
How far did you get?
16 months :)
Nice!
