Very unique gameplay and fantastic art and music.\n\nA rather minor point, but I did find it a bit annoying to have to drag items into my inventory, especially stuff like money, instead of just right-clicking. I also found that I found way too many treasure chests and not enough monsters, which kind of diminished the point of getting items since I wasn't using it against monsters often enough.\n\nVery minor stuff though. All in all this game is fantastic!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"mrerdalural","author_uid":"1003110","time":"2018-04-24T11:25:27Z","epoch":1524569127,"modified":1524569127,"text":"Didn't feel incompatible at all!

The decision to not add EXP\/LVL progression only highlights the crop management feature, which is great. On the downside, the UI is clunky and does not always work (right clicking should place the item(s) automatically).\n\nGreat entry.

Loved watching you build this one. It's a great blend of two genres that results in a very satisfying game.

The ability to use multiple weapons at the same time was cool, but it did mean that the combat devolved into click all the weapons later on. Other than that, really well done, I loved the idea behind it and the execution was spot on. I didn't manage to reach the end of the game, I got to the mountain area before being eaten by an ogre, but the length was really impressive.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Hare Software","author_uid":"1079680","time":"2018-05-01T11:35:45Z","epoch":1525174545,"modified":1525174545,"text":"Loved the graphics and had a lot of fun, this could easily be a full game!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"fusionnist","author_uid":"1010732","time":"2018-05-01T16:40:12Z","epoch":1525192812,"modified":1525192812,"text":"Really well made!

It took me until after dying to the dragon to realize that you probably aren't supposed to just try to click all your weapons and shields as soon as they are done charging.","likes":1,"format":"md"}],"format":"md","images":["ld41\/80587-28a3936f70ba003c52f5db1c88e9f3f1.gif"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/frankiesmileshow.itch.io\/sword-and-plow","text":"Windows"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"40736","g_author":"1012729","g_event":"LD41","g_eventkey":"72","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"223450","g_title":"Sword And Plow","g_status":"USEAR3","g_place":"6","g_commentcount":"21","g_site2_node_id":"80587","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"80587","n_urlkey":"223450","n_parent":"73256","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/41\/sword-and-plow","n_slug":"sword-and-plow","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"jam","n_author":"12729","n_created":"1524080874","n_modified":"1524699560","n_version":"277233","n_status":"COMMIT"},"node":{"id":80587,"parent":73256,"superparent":9,"author":12729,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"jam","published":"2018-04-24T01:19:43Z","created":"2018-04-18T19:47:54Z","modified":"2018-04-25T23:39:20Z","version":277233,"slug":"sword-and-plow","name":"Sword And Plow","body":"An RPG mixed with a gardening game!\n\n![Screenshot2.gif](\/\/\/raw\/9b1\/3\/z\/12ccb.gif)\n\nCan a farmer slay an evil dragon?\nGrow and eat your food own to gain strength.\nDrag items with the left mouse button.\nDrag seeds onto the farm plot squares to either side of your inventory to grow crops.\nUse and equip items in your inventory with a right click.\n\nYou can attack enemies just before they attack to interrupt them, or just after they attack for a critical hit!\nDon't forget to equip helmets and armor you find!\n\nYou can also use the number keys to use items, and the arrow keys to move.\n\nThere is also a polished, post-jam version of the game available.\nCheck it out after judging if you liked the game!
