You must plant and harvest crops, sell their products, and buy new and better crops. You must also buy soil in which to plant your crops, and buy sprinklers and fertilizer to speed up their growth. ----Crops---- You can plant your selected crop in existing soil. Crops will grow slowly over three stages. Harvest crops when they are fully grown for two of said crop. You may harvest crops if they are not fully grown, however they will only yeild 1 of their crop. ----Rotting---- After they are fully grown, crops will start to rot. It takes around two growth periods for a crop to rot. Rotted Crops will not produce any crops. ----Extras---- Buy extras from the shop. Place an extra to use it. Change your selected extra in order to place different types of extras. ----Fertilizer---- Place fertilizer on soil to fertilize the soil, making fertilized soil. Crops will grow much faster when on fertilized soil. ----Sprinklers---- Place Sprinklers on any available tiles, including soil. Sprinklers will rotate and slowly water all crops around them. ----Harvesters---- Place Harvesters on empty soil tiles. Then, plant crops where the harvesters are. The harvesters will automatically harvest and replant the crop that they are touching. ----Town---- Go to the town by clicking on the small house in the upper right labeled "TOWN" The shop is located in the town. The silo is located in the town. The refiners are located in the town. You cannot place crops or extras in the town. Click the arrow in the upper right to return to your farm. ----Shop---- Click on the shop to open the shop menu. Click on the back button to exit the shop menu. Click on the sell button to sell one of your selected crop More expensive crops will sell for more money. Use arrows to navigate shop pages. Click on crops or extras to buy them. After buying a crop twice, it will go out of stock. Crops will be restocked over time. You cannot have more than 99 of any given crop in your inventory. ----Refiners---- Click on locked refiners to unlock them for the price listed. Click on unlocked refiners to place on of your selected crop inside. Wheat, Corn, and Potatoes are the only crops you can refine. Once your crops are done refining, they will go into the silo. ----Silo---- Click on the silo to open it. Click the sell button to sell the silo's contents. The fuller the silo, the more money each crop will be worth. Click on the back button to exit the silo. ----Days---- One in-game day is equal to one real-world minute. There are 24 in-game hours in each day. Each day consists of 12 hours of night and 12 hours of day. ----Seasons---- There are four seasons: spring, summer, fall, and winter. Each season is 10 days long. You can tell which season it is based on the color of the ground. The first season is spring. ----Weather---- There are four different weathers: clear, rain, heat wave, wind, and snow. The weather is usually clear. The other weathers depend on the season. Rain occurs in the spring. It waters crops, and helps them grow. Heat Wave occurs in the summer. If crops get exposed to too much heat, they will wither. Wind occurs in the fall. Crops will sometimes need to grow back if exposed to wind. Snow occurs in the winter. It slows down and harms crops' growth. ----Bugs---- At night, bugs will sometimes fly into your farm. If they touch your crops enough, they will be ruined. Chase them down and catch them to kill them. They will also sometimes get bored and fly away from your farm and disappear. ----Pesticides---- Pesticides are another extra you can place. They will kill any bugs that touch them. ----Levels---- Your Score will increase by doing basic activities around the farm. The Score is hidden from the player. A World Record Score is kept using cloud variables. It will automatically update to your current score when you exit the shop menu. Your Level will increase when your score is high enough. The higher your level is, the longer it will take to reach the next level. Level and score do not affect gameplay, they are only to track how far along you are in the game.
----Quickstart Guide---- Don't want to read the incredibly long instructions? I don't blame you. Here are a few things you need to know before you start playing. 1. You need soil to plant crops in. First place soil (by pressing [A]), and then you can plant your crops (by pressing [S]). 2. Crops take a little while to grow. They grow in three stages. They are ready to harvest at their third stage. After that they will begin to rot, so don't wait too long to harvest them. 3. After harvesting a crop (by pressing [D]), it will disappear. You will get two of its crop. One is to plant back, and the other you can sell or plant in another place. 4. You can sell your crops in the store, accessed by clicking on the town button. 5. You can use the money to buy more crops in the store. More expensive crops will sell for more, but they don't sell for as much as you paid for them. This is because you only have to buy crops once. 6. To use your new crops, you must change the selected crop (by pressing [W] or [E]). 7. You can press the right and left arrows to navigate shop pages. Extras are sold on the right page of the shop. Soil is an extra. Fertilizer and sprinklers are other types of extras. They speed up crop growth. Harvesters will automatically harvest crops. ----Credits---- Code and art by me. Looking to get featured here?
