First major update

We have reached our first major update.

  • New Environment
  • A new succulent, Lithops optica 'Rubra'
  • Vacation mode
  • The grove environment now uses music from the grove in Eidolon
  • Flowering achievements
  • Achievements for "throwing your plants in the garden", formerly deleting plants


We also added patches and little changes.

  • You can now use z to name stuff and it won't disappear your UI
  • The nursery allows you to zoom in and manually rotate plants
  • Plucking weeds doesn't also select a different plant
  • The snail farts when you pick it up
  • Music does not constantly loop anymore

Sept 13 Update

  • Camera locks more quickly & precisely while placing plants.
  • Zoom partially enabled while moving plants and snail, for increased precision.
  • Fixed a bug where backup saves weren't being properly reverted-to in some instances.
  • Spritz button is now disabled briefly after being pressed, to avoid accidental overwatering-deaths due to doubleclicks/lag.
  • Spritz/Thirst values tweaked so that spritzing once while Sated will never kill a plant.
  • New plants now start at the same size as starter plants, instead of automatically starting at the full size their space will allow (to help preserve pot space for easier rearranging).
  • Confirmation window on plant deletion clarified to exaggerate severity even further.
  • Flowers now last about a week (and some new flowers added).
  • Snail freed from trailing-plant prison—now moves freely, incorporally through all biological matter.


Keep your pants on - vacation mode (and other common requests) are on their way!

Aug 24 Update

  • Achievements added for maturing your plants
  • Arrow keys now zoom/rotate, for those of us without mice.
  • Scientific names are written a little smarter
  • Mac fullscreen mode should be easier to escape
  • Subtle tooltips added to many UI elements to increase clarity
  • Plant deletion text altered to emphasize permanence & severity
  • Stealth-fixed some bugs I don't want you to know about
