Solid short incremental game that takes <5 hours to 100%. The game starts off extremely slow and active, but it speeds up significantly as you buy upgrades. Eventually you get idle mode and the rest of the game doesn't take that much longer to finish off. The one downside to this game is that the challenges are broken... though you don't need to do any challenges to 100% the game. Overall, solid game to play for a couple hours.

+ chill, meditative gameplay loop + music + short + price - gets a bit repetitive in the late game

Lyca is just relaxing Not that much more can be said about this game. You run around as a wolf, planting grass and flowers. Skills that makes you plant better and faster feels overpowered. Like progression is faster than in any game from this genre I played. Plus once you reach idle mode.... the game change into nice screensaver with music perfect for reading a book. While we at it, music is ralaxing, and I mean it. It put me to sleep while hunting for last achivment. I liked it. Short and nice to the eyes. Really enjoyable

This is a mehvote - neither recommend nor downvote. For its price it's fine. I like that compared to similar games, you fill the space rather than destroy things in it. But besides that, it's kind of unbalanced. The second challenge (filling the field with grass) never triggered for me, even after i completed the game, so it's kind of pointless even having it as a thing to unlock. Upgrades, as usual, are "just there". Not a fan of either control schemes. Visually, it was tearing in a weird way when walking diagonally. Sound popped and cracked uncomfortably after unlocking supernova upgrade. For all that was good with it, there's a lot to complain about. It really is just "okay". Which is fine, games should be allowed to be "okay".

Nice, short incremental/ idle game! It doesn't force you to re-buy upgrades by wiping your progress, with the 'prestiege' system instead increasing your health drain, for the trade-off of giving you more resources. It starts off very active and manual, and slowly through upgrades allows you to idle it more and more, eventually just allowing you to leave the game running to do its thing. Very much recommended!
