The BackgroundOne night, in mid 2016, I (James Biddulph, Developer) couldn't sleep, so I got up and made a little garden simulator. I was stressed out, and living in the city, but nature and open, green spaces, always helps to calm me down. I didn't think much of it at the time, but I made the game generate a random plant based upon a random word. It was super rough, and didn't look great, but I was just making it to take my mind off things. I showed this little game to a few people, and it seemed to connect with them. I noticed that people would always do very similar things the first time that they played. They would type in their own name, their pets name, loved ones etc, to see what kind of plant would grow. It was amazing to see them connect the plant to the person. Maybe the plant was very chaotic and messy, which made them think of their cat, or tall and graceful like their partner. I saw this happen with enough different people to convince me that I should turn this idea into a full game. I hope that it connects with more people, and maybe even helps you if you are having a hard time, like the original prototype did with me. b4d347fde0

The art style is simple and cute and I enjoy the overall atmosphere. The only downside is when my mouse disappears from the screen- even after I his esc to do the quick fix there are still issues. Specifically I mean that I am no longer able to select my seeds even after this quick fix. I would also love if there was a seperate slider for music volume vs ambient sounds.. The game is decently fun but could use some content updates in the near future. RTK Maker - my GAMECITY GC download direct
