great use of timers to get around the two button limitation

Impressive entry. As Ariake81 said, very good use of timers to expand your options, and allow you to use both themes.

The timers are a nice touch, sticking to the 2-button theme strictly. I didn't get very far with my crops but I tried. Nice one.

Good idea for the two button controls! (Also, nice game name!)

While the growing part interpretation of the theme is easy, the realization, while also respecting the two button theme, is inventive. Nicely done !

I like this a lot. The timers are smart too.

Really nice, it takes a bit of time to get used to the controls and menu navigation, but the time challenge is stimulating :)

Nice graphics, and the music is very fitting.
It's really tiresome selecting everything with two buttons and waiting... also I didn't understand how I could get new seeds. I'll probably never be a farmer.

Wow, you seriously managed to make a resource management game with just two buttons, a neat idea made really well.

Very good work.

The control scheme is very clever, nice job! The farming system is also pretty intuitive, the in-game messages were pretty useful to teach how to play (on top of being funny).

It was fun trying to figure out how to manage my crops efficiently, but either I'm bad at it or there are a few balancing issues - I gave up after 15mn and 260 crops. The main problem to me is that half-grown crops sometimes produce 1 crop only in return, meaning I have planted them in vain.

Now you had me playing for 15mn so I can't deny it, overall the game was fun :)

Yeah, this was great and very creative, very innovative play with the theme restrictions. Well done!

I had fun playing your game!! Music was annoying after 5 min but the 2 controls system was really nicely done! I would just change the fact that when you change a tool you automatically exit! And also add a tutorial!

I really enjoyed it! Very good implementation of the 2 buttons.

Smart thing with the timers, but a lot of waiting involved in this game.

great keeping with the theme!
fun gameplay but quite hard

Great concept and I love the little details in the names. The house was awkward to operate, but that's the point of the control style. Nicely done :)

nice work. automatically switching to the seed bag or the grab bag is confusing. also i expected watering plants to take one charge from the watering can. maybe effects and numbers popping up could make those things more clear

Great use of controls, followed both themes and pretty good gameplay, but I seem to have ran out of seeds and can't acquire more, not sure if that's my fault or something else.

good use of contextual controls. I would have loved some mechanic to buy bigger watering cans.Hold more feed. etc. Just some way so I could start balancing multiple states for the crops. Also would have liked to see some easing in the transitions between the steps. One really great mechanic is that the dead plants yield seeds which means you have to decide how much of your crop to use for replanting.

Forgive the pun but this entry has the seeds of a great idea.

Nice use of timers, pretty innovative.

It was hardly to find how to grow seed from the start. But when you get it game gets interesting for playing. Good work

This game is my favourite so far in ld34. Wow,you are so smart.

The gameplay is very innovative, how others said, the use of timers is a great idea to use the two buttons control theme :-) Nice entry!

Tried to download the Windows version. Got stuck with one of those stupid "Your computer has a virus, call this number to get us to remove it." scam bull crap. Looks like a fun game though.
