Strange Horticulture in the Steam Awards

This year has been incredible. We continue to be completely overwhelmed by the positive response to Strange Horticulture. We are so grateful to everyone who has played our game, written us a review, sent us a tweet or an email, told a friend about it and given Hellebore thousands of pets. It means everything to us so thank you.

The Steam Awards for 2022 are open for nominations and if you think we deserve it, we humbly ask you to nominate us. We suggest voting for us in the ‘Sit Back and Relax Award’, but it’s up to you. You can help spread the word about our game and introduce new people to our world of mystery and magical plants.

Thank you everyone,
Rob & John, Bad Viking

Localization + Zooming + Halloween Update! 🎃

Dear Horticulturists,

'Tis the spooky season where the leaves are falling from the trees and pumpkin-spiced lattes are served in the cafés of Undermere. In this update, your little shop of horrors has been kitted out with some spooky accoutrements to get you in the Halloween vibe. We've also added Polish, Portuguese, Czech, and Turkish localization!

[h3]Halloween![/h3]
For a limited time, you'll see a new loading screen and some cute pumpkins to fiddle around with. How will you use them to spruce up the shoppe? Color code with orange plants? Strewn about the shelves randomly?

With Halloween come black cats, so we've added one to the shop! Its name is Hellebo-- oh, right... Hellebore was always there. Still, give 'em some extra scritches around Halloween.

[h3]Zooming QoL change[/h3]
Additionally, we've added a new zoom feature with this update. While playing, simply press and hold the SHIFT key to instantly take out your trusty magnifying glass and zoom in on whatever you're looking at. This will make it easier to quickly read small texts.

[h3]Localization[/h3]
It's not just pumpkins and black kitties — we've also added four new languages to Strange Horticulture! Polish, Portuguese, Czech, and Turkish localization are all available now, with Dutch localization also coming soon™. Achievements have been localized as well, so you can properly tell what achievement you've unlocked.

Have a wonderful spooky season, and enjoy the update 🎃
