>HENBANE FARMS! Step into the world of the webcomic Head Full of Poison. Welcome to the other side, where everyone from your past exists as a blank slate. This is your chance to make right by them, and more importantly yourself. This is you. Your name is Owen. You're pretty cool, Owen! - Walk left/right with [A]/[D] or left/right arrow keys - Hold [Shift] to run. This is important because you have limited time.
First you need to find this guy and talk to him. He'll give you a hint about what crop to pick up next. The crop could be any one of these!
- Hit [Spacebar] or [Enter] to pick a crop off the ground, and to talk to someone!
Now's the hard part. You have to walk around and find a villager who wants the crop you have. This friendly bunch are the villagers. - Click the [give] button on screen or press [G] when talking to someone to give them your crop.
Now, lets say you gave a potato to a villager who wanted a potato. That's great! You added 5 seconds to the timer! Now you can go back to the wolf and get your next clue and another crop!
But here's the bad part, if you gave a potato to a villager who wanted an eggplant you lose 10 seconds off the timer. That's no good! You still need to find the villager who wanted a potato but you'll have to first go pick up another potato from the garden.
I think that this game has a really good art style and sense of humor! I did run into a little bit of a problem where sometimes I would press G to give and it seemingly didn't do anything. I like how you utilized the theme though!
Art style is cute and the bgm is really nice, though I kinda wish it was longer! Game stumped me for a bit (the "give" button seems to be grayed out on some people for some reason) but the riddles are fun.
Art and Music were great but the gameplay was a bit lacking. It took me a few tries to figure out what to do, everyone is asking for vegetables but you're only allowed to give out certain ones which was really confusing and I didn't get a couple of the references which meant I had to guess when they came up which caused me to lose. I also didn't realize you could sprint at first which made it nearly impossible to get to anyone without wasting time, if a feature like that is so important it should probably just default to active.
Cute game, though it was a little confusing and seemed somewhat bugged because i gave an item to someone and it was correct, next try i gave the same item to the same prompt and it was wrong, then the letters got very scrambled and bugged. Overall an interesting concept
The game was really cute! Some of the puzzles/questions were kind of tricky, for example I really thought 'favorite color starts with p' would be eggplant (purple) but that turned out wrong 🤔
Either way, nicely polished and congrats on finishing the jam!
I liked the style and music. I didn't quite understand the puzzles, and thought there were some obvious solutions that for some reason the game said was wrong. And there were some characters I couldn't really give anything. Or so it seemed. Not sure if there was a benefit to having a timer on it. Could have just as well have gotten free time to run around and try out the combinations. That way it wouldn't have mattered as much when I didn't agree with what was correct or not. But cute game all in all.

I love the way the world spins underneath the player and I love the medals you have in the main menu.
Either way, nicely polished and congrats on finishing the jam!
