Hey :) I would really like to post my garden in the comments, but there seems to be no comment section under the game ...

Also, the idea with the integer sequences is really cool. :)

What a beautiful garden game. I love the aesthetics and the atmosphere of this one. :) The ui was a bit confusing sometimes, but nevertheless, a really cozy and cute game. Thank you for making my day a bit more green :)

Lovely artwork, lovely tunes!! I am bad at numbers so mainly was planting hoping for the best! I found myself coming back to play many times!!

Developer

Thank-you for your repeat plays! We have some ideas of further development so will have to watch this space :)

Had a fun time with this, albeit mildly creeped out by the backing track haha

Here's my garden:

Sweet garden! Very organised :)

I think the backing track hits very different for those who are used to 1940s music representing post-war nuked out wastelands XD

Really beautiful artwork! Loved the game and the vibe!

Lovely artwork as usual! As an avid Numberphile watcher, I knew all of the sequences except for Sophie Germain primes (gotta see if they have a video about that). Digging the cozy vibes overall. Slightly broke the opening cutscene by having an extremely weird 16:10 screen ratio, but apart from that, everything worked well :)

Developer

Thank-you kindly!

Sophie Germain is  super interesting mathematician :) Highly recommend looking up her history :D

Really nice experience. Cozy, soothing - great choice of music.

I also like the title very much, it fits perfectly.

Well that was lovely! I restarted a couple times when I realized I was using up my precious days with my random test clicks (because of course every click is critical) but I got the hang of it and made a little garden I like. I’m gonna grow up to live in a tropical rainforest, you’ll see.

Ahww lovely garden!

Not sure how the cat is going to get out of the shed but hey....

This game makes me think of my grandmother, and how painful it feels to watch someone fade as they forget themselves and you. Probably not intentionally emotional but at its core, it certainly was. Thank you for this submission <3

I would submit my garden, but itch isn't letting me!! (darn you itch!)

Thank-you so much for sharing such a personal reaction. We were definitely trying to invoke a late 1940s vibe with the music and pacing which echoes the lives of our own grandparents.

Thanks again for playing! I'm sure your garden was beautiful :)

What a fantastic, relaxing, cozy game. The artwork is 5 stars.

Flower planting catharsis. I can't wait to retire.
