Serene and satisfying puzzle game where you sow seeds and place junk in small scenes. The junk makes seeds within a sphere of influence grow, but if they intersect a part of a plant that part will be destroyed. You need plants to grow to generate more seeds to plant more plants, ideally close enough together that the limited amount of junk you place make multiple plants grow. It's very satisfying to try to figure out how to organize plants and junk in a scene to optimize growth, but I found it was also lenient enough with how successful you have to be to finish a scene that you can afford deciding to do stuff that will look good over maximizing utility often enough that it feels you have agency over how the end result actually looks. And that's it. Satisfying puzzle, pretty graphics, serene music. With 113 scenes to build (I have so many left to get through oh lord) there's so much content in this thing. Strongly recommend!

A fantastically zen-like puzzle-light game about turning abandoned urban areas into tropical wonderscapes. Thumbs up, but I believe the development team have abandoned this title, which is a shame because there's so much potential here. The discord has players wishing for mod support, but the dev is silent. Still, a great game that could easily be made better if the development team hadn't given up on the project. I enjoy this very much.

Interesting, but looking forward to finishing map and just working in sandbox/creative mode. The challenges don't really lend themselves to creating aesthetically pleasing scenes, though I guess one could make that a personal challenge

Really relaxing game that still has some cool puzzle elements. It's not just a sandbox, you have to use some problem solving skills to layer the plants up as if nature really was reclaiming these spaces. The pixel graphics and good audio make for a compelling experience. And there's way more content then I thought!

Throughout my playthrough, my cat sat next to me intently watching the screen because of the crows flying around as I flung plants onto the nearest object. 10/10 from me and my cat.
