Skeleton Farmer
Skeleton Farmer is an interactive farming experience of the skeleton variety. Take on the role of a skeleton who is also a farmer and manage your meagre patch of land as a bloodless shambling husk.
Key Features:

We all die one day
While other farming games aim to be fast paced and exhilarating representations of agricultural life, Skeleton Farmer offers a slower pace allowing you space to experience the visceral anguish of being.
Baking
Bread is delicious! Eating bread allows us to sustain our life force. Skeleton Farmer includes an oven for those ambitious farmers that collect enough flour to bake a hearty loaf.
In Christian theology the Eucharist is bread transmuted into the body of Christ. Through consuming the flesh man transcends the mortal world and is allowed access into the Kingdom of Heaven.

V good. I want more skeleton games.
game's feel is rawer than uncooked steak and the presentation is hardly much better BUT I mean that in the best way possible, just a solid 30 minutes of waiting and farming, dig it.
This game is enchanting. You shouldn't let the crude presentation fool you; the rawness is part of it's strength. Was so pleasantly surprised by this strange, meditative, and funny experience.
Utterly captivating game, despite it's slow nature.
I recommend resisting the urge to put on something in the background while playing this. Take in the silence, the cries of the birds, the sound of your bone-y skeleton feet on the dirt. Take it all in...
