you can put all the boxlings outside of the fencer ☉ ‿ ⚆

no objective to follow so I can just mess around and have fun, its pretty simple but I like it a lot.

The visuals and concept is cute but so far the game doesn't have much to offer and has no end goal. This is a game jam game so I get that it's more of a concept showcase than a fully fleshed out game. It has lots of potential to be interesting! A more detailed tutorial would be nice, and I'd prefer if it were easier to distinguish the flowers from the grass cos I kept getting confused.

beautiful

Hmm, not sure what to think of this as it feels rather unfinished at the moment, like a prototype for a Slime Rancher-esque farming game, but which hasn't closed the loop yet to create an exciting sense of progression. It's cute and all, but it doesn't take long for gathering money from planting seeds and selling boxlings to feel pointless as there's no long-term goal or purpose to build up to. I know it's a game jam game so I'm not expecting a lot due to the small timeframe, but even regarding that, game jams are mostly about experimentation and finding out a rough draft for a great game loop, and that hasn't been established yet here, so it's a bit of a miss.
