This is a really creative idea. I have never played a game with this concept before. Besides the few hitches presented due to Itch itself and not your inherent design for the Web build. This game is great and executes the theme well. I really enjoyed the Art, sound, and clarity of the tutorial UI telling me what I needed to do. I myself can learn from this design philosophy as a fellow developer. Thank you for creating this for the Jam. It is truly lovely and I can not wait to see further development on it and where you plan to take it next once this Jam is done despite which ever rank you do achieve!
From the jump, music is a good vibe and all the art vibes together! The font choice is perfect and fits well with the UI art.
REALLY good tutorial, very impressive with teaching the player how to line up the visuals and placing the guiding arrows (I know from experience that isn't easy, even with AI). Pause menu is lovely as well!
Really enjoying the loop so far. I think cutting the worm out is a good level of difficulty. I don't really understand which apples to cut and which to sell yet, but maybe that will come with time. It's a fun loop giving the worms to the fisherman, though I'm not sure how the fish factor in yet. Might be fun if he gave you the fish and you got to keep half of the profit or something. Love the touch of the worm "singing" when you're cutting the apple (if that's what it is).
I feel like after the second or third round of cutting (about when second worm is found) would be a good time to show a shop or something to do with the money, or maybe introduce another tree. Felt like the loop was getting a tad stale at that point. Right after I wrote this, I discovered the shop! Nice one. I think there just wasn't a text popup.
Overall: Really enjoyed it! I think it's a funny loop and there's definitely stuff to add on. I got a little bit bored towards the end but it may just not be my type of game as well. Probably the best game I've played so far in the jam!
Very satisfying gameplay loop, the apple-cutting to find worms is an awesome idea.
Really unique idea! Found the simulation gameplay of cutting an apple to retrieve a worm to be very refreshing.
I really love the vibe of this game! I had so much fun playing! 10/10
Intriguing game. Very unique concept. Took a LOOOONG time to load. I'd like to see more polished art, but that's a personal preference. Played and got two worms and one fish. The tutorial notes were helpful but not overbearing. If I had time, I'd go for the record. I may add this to collection to see how it goes. Well done.
