As the crooked witch you are, strategically* harvest useful specters in order to protect your precious golden furballs from your fearful neighbor's farm and steal theirs!
I'm happy to be back to Ludum Dare after _yeaaaarrrrssss_ of missing it because of inconveniences IRL. I love to challenge myself, become better and to see what everyone had been doing while stressing out during the weekend.
This is an attempt to make a multiplayer-based mobile game. Of course, testers need to play it on PC so I made a very basic A.I. for you to play against.
I made the design, artwork, code and even music for this Compo entry. I wanted the game to be the fullest it could be in barely 48 hours.
This is obviously going to be buggy, so if you find anything _please_ let me know, and also _pleaaaase_ leave a comment if you play the game, feedback is the one greatest thing you can get from a Ludum Dare event.

- Click a seed bag to pick it up.
- You can then plant it in one of your empty plots by clicking on them.
- Once a tombstone is fully grown harvest it by going where it is.
- If a Bomber specter made a hole in one of your plots you can fix it by standing on top of it.
- Remember that trying to pick up seed bag or harvesting while already holding something will drop what you were carrying.
- You have to have six golden furballs on your side to win the game!
(*) Uhhh...
