I've been loving this! Very fun, great designs, worldbuilding and characters both friend and foe alike.
I encountered an odd bug where when I try to place a scarecrow, the placement marker is stuck on the upper-left corner of the screen. I never had this happen before except for this latest play session.
I DID alt-tab to a Steam chat window before switching back, and several minutes later traveled to the farm and tried to place a newly made scarecrow only to get this bug.
To clarify, this is a itch.io demo not a steam demo, so maybe that had something to do with it?
Also one point of trouble is when the resources are regenerated, including the mine, if you are in a mine you may get stuck with objects spawning onto your spot. Maybe the player could be scripted to be kicked out of the mine?
All in all I have been loving this demo though! Fantastic work!

Glad you're digging the game! The placement issue is indeed due to switching windows - placement items lock to your cursor location, so when the window loses focus (either due to switching windows, or a popup etc.), the game can't find the cursor. Clicking the window will re-focus it, and resolve the issue.
