I made a little game where you harvest crops to serve up to the guests at your cozy bed-and-breakfast inn. I composed the midi soundtrack, hand-pixeled the art, and made all the sounds in bfxr.

_This was my first time participating in compo! It was really challenging and a lot of fun. This was also my first time building a game with the Phaser JavaScript game engine, so it was quite a learning experience! I hope you like playing, even though I didn't have time to learn the engine __and__ complete all the features I wanted to. In particular, I didn't get to the cooking mechanics or ability to buy seeds, so there's a random element there for now._

_I hope you enjoy the game, even in the state it's in! My goal was to create a peaceful cozy game._

🔎 How was it made?


I hand-coded the JavaScript for this game using the Phaser JS framework.

You can check out the source code here: https://github.com/paloobi/harvest-game

If you're curious about learning Phaser yourself, here are some of the resources I used heavily:
* LESSMILK | Tutorial: Make web games with Phaser 3
* Make 2D Games in JavaScript with Phaser
* Phaser Examples

⏳ Features for Later

Some of the features I would have loved to have time to add and may add after voting is over:
* hit boxes
* player animations
* ability to choose what to cook
* ability to choose to buy seeds (also, ability to use coins...)
* see some of your guests and their reactions
* different time to grow for different crops
* more crops!
* more recipes!
* see the inside of the inn
