Loved this game! I can't believe you somehow had time to fit 3 incremental games into one!

The popping game was soothing and satisfying, especially the little "pop" sound. It was very responsive to the mouse, which made for great play experience. I absolutely love the creativity of the mirrored mouse and second, slower bubbles. It did take me a while to realize that I was not trying to also pop the depression ones. I don't know if there was an instruction to try to avoid them, but if so I didn't see it. I lost quite a few bubbles before figuring out that I wasn't supposed to pop them. Also, for constructive feedback I would say it would have been a better experience as a player if the bubble screen paused when I clicked the upgrade or dream tabs. It felt like I was missing bubble opportunities to watch them continue to go by when I was in that menu!

I also really enjoyed the farming game, although I would have liked some more obvious click noise when planting a seed (and possibly when collecting), and maybe an error sound when you don't have enough to plant a certain type. By the end, the player is doing things so fast that small cues like sound effects are very useful!

Unlike the other people, I liked the farming game more than plinko because plinko just feels random to me and I liked getting to control the farming.

My biggest complaint/frustration was not in the game itself but that there wasn't a full screen button. In my window I had to scroll up and down in all of the mini games while juggling the tasks. It made it more difficult than intended. You can easily select this feature on the itch page where you upload the game.

The upgrades and progression for all 3 felt great to me. It went quickly, but not too quickly.

I made it to the end and had a lot of fun playing. Great job!

Great little game, I really liked the plinko minigame a lot. The farming was alright, it did end up growing on me (no pun intended lol) but if it had been as good as the plinko one this game would be a real gem (it's already pretty great!)

I love the unorthodox art style and sound/music, the game is fun and easy to comprehend. Though it took me way too long to realize I was supposed to be AVOIDING the depression bubbles, I think I hit the depression threshold 6 times before I stopped to think about why. Lol

Really fun little game, I can tell you had a lot of fun making it too. And those are the best kind of games

Just delightful. Wonderfully human and "funky" in the best possible way. The plinko section was a great addition and really well timed. The farming a bit less so, I would've appreciated something a bit more different to the main game (and/or automation at least, picking up the seeds got quite tiring), but great submission and a lovely little incremental!
