The interact key was a bit finnicky and the credits option in the title screen completely froze the game (I tried twice). All in all, this was a really cool idea, blending seeds from 2 different dimensions and I enjoyed the music/vibe shift between the dimensions.

Well my soul nearly went away when the beat in the eldritch realm intensified T-T Call me paranoid but I was ready to run for my life!

The aesthetic is kinda fun in the end, it's really smooth! I just ran into issues with the path but nothing that I couldn't live with, and some problem with E not interacting properly with the field. But I liked the plants available! And the music, even though I was terrified, it was cool! 


Somehow I'm so slow that I ran into the end of the audio loop in the Eldritch realm and was left with pure silence, not even the sound of my feet. And when I returned to the real realm, I got the Eldritch realm theme instead of the real realm one! Gotta appreciate how goth damn slow I am to discover things like that

Also, I couldn't find the quit button, so I ctrl+f4 but I'm pretty sure I'm just a savage.

I had a great time! Will probably continue to play some more!

I loved the aesthetic and the music so much! The perspective was so nice and I liked all the foreground elements! like, they really gave a good sense of depth. And a lot of the text cracked me up, for some reason the line "time to go to the Eldridge dimension" had me laughing. Like, sure buddy, it sure is.  Our double on the other side gave me a start haha. I really liked the look of all the crops and the mechanics to grow them were really straight forward. 

I ran into some terrain issues, where it was sometimes hard to get back on the main path (like the brown bump of the path acted like a real bump and I had to walk parallel to it to get back on) but nothing crazy bad. And I found I had to leave the garden plots completely to interact with them, so I couldn't go from one plot to the next quickly. But again, not game breaking at all. I found I wanted some like, haptic or audio feedback when I did things correctly. Like when I created the new seed, I wasn't sure it worked at first. But (again! haha) not a big deal and it's a jam and this is super polished for the time!! I really liked the music as well! the Eldridge track had some cool low key jump scares in it.

Really neat, would be a fun chill mobile game too.

Farming. I liked the day/night world switching idea. Btw was that our double standing there?

I didn't really get the merge mechanic. Also, first time I launched the game it ate 100% of my CPU and crashed, but I'm not sure it was the game's fault tbh.

Anyway, good job!

For the merge mechanic, its mixing 1 normal crop eith 1 eldirtch crop and it will unlock a new type of crop you can plant. 


Thanks for the input, Ill have to check the cou usage when I get back home!
