You're an honest turnip farmer. Doing your job, as every day.

You found a rock in you turnip field… Unwilling to drive your beloved combine harvester on it, you step down to remove the unwelcome stone…

WHEN SUDDENLY

Your not-so-beloved-anymore combine harvester starts running again. And you're on its path! Fly you fool!

Instructions

Controls

• W (qwerty), up-arrow, Z (azerty), or space: to jump and double-jump
• A/D (qwerty), arrows, or Q/D (azerty): to move left/right
• S, down-arrow, F, shift, or ctrl: to perfom [ACTION]
• R: quickly restart (not a leftover debug key, totally an intended feature)

What is [ACTION]?

• If you're atop a turnip: harvest™ the turnip
• If you're atop a rock: grab the rock
• If you're holding a rock: throw the rock
• If you're atop a tree root: shaky-shake the tree

Mechanics

• You either harvest a turnip or don't, no letting go once you started!
• Harvesting™ a turnip take longer the larger it is!
• You hit a deadly mushroom: you die painfully
• You hit your combine harvester: you die even-more-painfully
• When you carry a rock, you can't double jump
• The combine harvester hits a rock: you gain some time!
• Thrown rock fall on another rock: they stack, and will combine harvester effects.
• Thrown rock fall on mushroom: it bounces ❤️
• Thrown rock fall on turnip: it crushes the turnip 💔
• Holding jump while harvesting™ a turnip charges a bonus super-jump (really, not a bug, totally an intended feature!)
• It gets faster (bad luck, the crop field was sliiightly on a slope…)

Scoring

• Harvest™ a little turnip: earn little points
• Harvest™ a medium turnip: earn medium points
• Harvest™ a large turnip: earn large points
• Harvest™ a t-h-i-c-c turnip : earn t-h-i-c-c points
• Harvest™ apples: earn exponentially-increasing (in a short time window) points for each previously harvested™ apple
• Let a turnip/apple get shredded by the rogue combine harvester: loose 1 point

It was planned, but I ran out of time to make the music, and a final polish/VFX pass. I'm still pretty proud of the game =)

Hope you'll enjoy it, thanks in advance for playing!

Post-deadline "Smallfix" version

Those fixes don't really change anything significant rating-wise, but by respect for fairness I still have the deadline version available below.
All fixes are:
