This is more likely bad UI communication :) as the tool screen does work… have made some changes for 0.1.7 (out today) but more coming for this screen - thank you so much for trying the game
It works! I think! I was able to play, but I'm not sure if I understand everything. I was able to manicure the trees, but then when I got to sharpen my blade...I didn't understand what I was or was not doing. I was holding up, I was tapping up, I was pressing up, I was cranking this way and that faster and slower, and didn't really notice any difference. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for your help!
At the moment if your tool is below 100 you can sharpen it by cranking the crank at a set speed to put your “cursor” into the target window (pressing up doesn’t currently actually matter) when you crank you will eventually see your “cursor” moving (aka a new rectangle) inside the box under the text
Going to try this new update. I played 0.1.7 twice and...never saw the icon while trying to sharpen the blade. Also, there was only ever one tree on that update, and if you cut it down, its game over. Are you testing on a physical Playdate or only SDK? Sideloaded 0.1.8 now! Thanks
yes we are testing on a real playdate and have just updated to 0.1.9
A known bug is do not undock crank before entering the hut.
Also the UI for crank in the hut is still not fast enough in updating.
Hoping to address that this weekend
Levels have been updated to from the test ones (aka very few trees) I hope to also redesign level 2 and 3 before Wednesday.

On the "tool maintenance" screen, the buttons and crank seem to do nothing (restarted a few times, same issue).

I am real dumb when it comes to computers, but when I try to sideload it says this "
The buildNumber value in pdxinfo must be an integer" Any help?
Oh ok let me check that thanks.
Fixed, please try again :) thanks

Ah, thanks. I never saw the cursor. Maybe I didn't crank long enough. I'll give it another go tonight.
Frankly, I'm interested in climate inaction and like seeing how games tackle subjects like this!
new update 0.1.7 would love for more testing and comments, more to come this month too. thanks again
