A downloadable game for Windows

A THUNDERCLAP hits a little farm, and A PUMPKIN comes alive!
But what now? What's the purpose of its life?
To fathom this out, dig through this merciless wheat field...



Play as a yet-unnamed pumpkin in this challenging 2D platformer

Use the unique DIGGING mechanic to enter any dirt block you want

And collect water to use a powerful ROOT BOOST to jump higher

You will need good timing to dodge the thorns and water pits on this wheat field filled with silly scarecrows!

i would marry this game <3

This game gave me multiple mental breakdowns,disorders, seizure and so much more. Besides me wondering what wrong pass in life I took to deserve this difficulty of a game, I don´t regret a second of it. <3 

oh my gamedesign supervisor Deren said the kinda same as you to my game :]
I will try my best that my next game cures the caused damages from this game! Anyways thanks for playing!




Great game with an awesome mechanic - took me a moment to get the hang of it but it was all the more rewarding afterwards.
Looking forward to future projects! :)
