Harvest Net by YoungArtifact

[raw]
made by YoungArtifact for Ludum Dare 52 (JAM)

Big shoutouts to Aendawyn without whomst I couldn't have published my game in time. Also Play their game aswell!

Harvest the fruits from the tree. One at a time! Then bring them to the crate, simple as that.

Known bugs: - ~~Golden Apples won't get collect. The rest of their code works.~~ (fixed!) - ~~You start with 40 points.~~ (fixed!) - ~~Points are not saved between sessions.~~ (fixed!) - "Leave Game" softlocks the game when played in the browser. Your score gets saved! Simple reload fixes it for now. The game will currently save your points only when you press "leave game"

Will work on the game for the next 3 weeks, and maybe beyond, to add more features polish and gameplay!

@diccuric-sigeon I've uploaded a new version (mainly fixes for the bugs mentioned) which could have fixed your issue. If not, do you mind telling me what browser you are running, so I might test it?

@diccuric-sigeon After a bit of searching it seems [only Chromium based browsers](https://itch.io/blog/456223/godot-cross-origin-isolation-and-sharedarraybuffers) ([also this](https://www.rafa.ee/articles/deploying-godot-4-html-exports/)) can run projects made with Godot 4. Might try to set up a version with an older Godot version and hope that works. However this might take some time!

You currently have to download the game or use a different, chromium based browser. If you use a different OS then Windows, downloads will be available as soon as possible!

The controls felt tight in your game and picking up the fruits was satisfying. Is there any goal in the game? Or way to lose? It became quite boring after a picking up a few fruits as it didn't progress anywhere. The main menu music would have been nice during the gameplay also I think.

@spacecadet currently there is not, I haven't had time to even really think about how I would go about that until the submission time was due. I am thinking about trying to make it into an idle game, I thought that would fit well. But I'm welcome towards any idea, this game can still take many turns!

(Also the music should be back in the gameplay. I might have accidentally removed it and haven't realied as it got relatively monotonous during testing :sweat_smile:)

Cute little game. :)

I would recommend adding a goal to the game, as there is really no challenge and point in continuing playing after minute or two. Maybe some timer or things to dodge? Up to you!

Congrats on submiting your first game to LDJ!

@vrerabek As I mentioned before, I haven't come to a conclusion about that. But I do have some ideas I will try to implement over the next few days!

Thanks!

Simple and cute game! Think the assets were put together pretty well, including the music. Introducing some kind of enemy, or challenge would spice it up too. Cute game!

Music and art style gave a great relaxing mood. It was a meditative game, you lose track of time and just harvest!

Great game! Only pity that there was no main goal of the game or at least a gradual increase in difficulty. Nevertheless, a brilliant job :wink:

Good little chill entry! A future idea is you could have an upgradable net to hold more than one. Keep on making games :smile:

It is adorable and calming, simple to understand. Well done, keep working to refine it!

The gameplay is a bit monotonous, there isn't much rewarding/satisfying things to make the player go on for long. Just a passing thought, after picking all the apples on this tree, transitioning to another harvest area and chasing after a flying apple with the net to that area or simply some visual feedback from crates could enchant it. :)

Regardless, I enjoyed the overall atmosphere and graphics, it is one lovely, relaxing game.

Simple loop made me curious to see what it could become. It's a good start for sure
