Hello there,

I just streamed this game for probably like 5 hours and I'm sure I will think of some other things to comment on eventually, but here is a list of both bigger and smaller things that I wasn't sure if you would be interested in hearing:

1.  PLEASE expand the cow and sheep barn. I was absolutely heartbroken when I tried to buy the third cow and was completely out of room with the two sheep and two cows I already had. I'm not sure if this was already planned out, but there is a bit of space around the building and I would love to cram more of those little guys in there. The cows are my absolute favorite and I NEED. MORE.

2. Make those overhead notifications last longer. It took me multiple incidents to finally understand why you don't want to be out past midnight: you get robbed (by something)! I don't know if it's just my game or I'm doing something to make the notifications vanish quicker, but midnight warnings and things about those creatures were disappearing very fast for me. If there is a way those could last longer, that would be great.

3. Fix the forest please? I'm not sure what your plan is, but oh. My. Goodness. I got so incredibly stuck. I don't know if it's meant to be endless, but the farthest I ever got was level 13 until it hit midnight and I got thrown back. I either can't find enough benches and run out of energy  or I literally run out of time in the day. If there's a way to get potions that can increase your energy or turn back time, that would be incredible.

4. Also along with the forest, it was starting to bother me a bit that the character doesn't face forward every time she enters the next level. This probably seems like the smallest thing in the world, but when you're racing in the clock and aren't thinking too hard, it's extremely easy to either accidentally click the exit or run the wrong way and waste time. Like I said, a very small detail, but it's just something I noticed that you may want to be aware of.

5. Another small thing: maybe the Dark Moths (I believe that's their name) should be a bug you can only find available during the night? I know that there was a little tip I got maybe a second to read but it mentioned something about only being able to get a certain resource at night, but I haven't noticed anything like this yet. I thought maybe the Dark Moths could be added to this list since they sort of stick out like a sore thumb during the daylight.

6. I also saw a comment that said it was a little frustrating having to click multiple times around the tree and I agree. Nothing major, but it would  be nice to mass-collect from a tree in one click.

7. Another issue that I'm unsure you would be able to fix is that there are some interesting camera "issues" every once in awhile. I've found that whenever an NPC walks up in a certain way, the camera will suddenly zoom in on the character in a very abrupt way and I'm not sure if this can be avoided. Also along the line of camera "issues" (in quotes because it's not too big of a problem): is there a way to fix the way the camera works/the roof is with the chicken coop? I don't know if I was only repetitively realizing it with the chickens, but the camera kept running into the roof and I would blindly click on the animals. Just something to think about, but that could have easily been user error.

8. Another thing about the forest that I forgot: after my longest attempt (when I got kicked out at midnight) there was a small glitch where the energy and level were on the left side of the screen in the morning. Thought I should let you know!

9. What are gifts? I was extremely confused by delivery quests for the LONGEST time. I thought you had to gift the items to the specific person, and let. Me. Just. Say. The professor was my least favorite person for at least an hour. He would not accept my ladybugs as gifts for the life of me and we kept having these negative interactions and I didn't understand it was as simple as just chatting with him. I guess I just assumed that the gifting interaction was how you turned in quest items, but I know better now. I still wonder, though: are gifts something that are currently a part of this stage in the game and what can they do for the receiver/me?

Another thing to note about getting a little confused: something else I read had mentioned how there were some things that were a little difficult to pick up. I think just adding a simple, small "How to Play" guide or a tutorial would help immensely. Some things I was confused by was why I was feeding animals/if there was a benefit to what I picked, how to plant crops, where could I get dark water, did I have to go to bed by a certain time, etc. All of these things I did learn with time, but I do think a tutorial would be greatly appreciated.

Overall, please know that any of these nit-picking details are in no way meant to overwhelm you so I apologize if they did. I am always a player who loves looking at the small details and they're one of the first things I noticed. I hope to play a little more soon and I will make sure to let you know if I run into anything else. I am sure more will come to my head once I step away from the game for a bit so I will let you know of anything I remember. Thank you for taking the time to read through my feedback and I hope I placed it all in the right thread. Take care!
