maybe a tutorial would be nice

simple but really fun! super charming. love the mechanics, visuals, and sfx

edit: at some point you create a system that can sustain itself infinitely without too much brainpower- my highscore is at 4000+ lol (it took me a couple of minutes to even waste my moves to check)

Please make a sequel

Well, that was cool until I failed on the level Bricks were introduced because the game just straight-up did not give me enough Pig seeds to feed it

Wow, quite the interesting and fun puzzler! Despite being quite complex, I found the game very intuitive due to its clever use of symbols, tooltips, feedback, and so on and so forth, and it didn't take long for me to get quite addicted at growing some perfect crop arrangements to meet the ever-increasing demands! There were some rules that were a bit confusing for me to grasp at first, such as how the pig herbs need to be surrounded by 3 crops but I wasn't sure what counted (such as whether diagonals counted) and I was confused at the purpose of the footsies, but for the most part everything could be grasped with a little trial and error. Overall this felt well put-together and polished and I had a good little time with this!
