Theme Implementation
Abstract plants grow on a hex grid, and to move a plant to its next stage you have to transplant it — just like real nurseries do to develop root systems.
Special Object addition
The shovel is the core of the game — it's both the tool you spend to transplant plants and move tools, and the currency you earn from orders. When the shovels run out, the game is over. And if you find the secret plant, it's tied to shovels too.

it’s a good game, really makes you think
Thanks, appreciate it!
This was really enjoyable! Very clean and beautiful graphics! I could only get to 10 or so orders in my best run lol.
Thanks! Really glad the visuals landed. :)
Really good but the time requirements and blocked tiles made the game feel clunky at least for me
Thanks! Fair enough — I get why it might feel that way.
Great visuals
Thanks! Spent a lot of time on them, so that means a lot.
Amazing game, had a blast playing. My brain hurts tho.
Thanks! Glad it hit the spot — sorry about your brain :)
Pretty cool one! I stopped at 64 because I figured I've seen all the content. Very addictive and chill. Great vibes!
Thanks, really glad you enjoyed it!
great idea,a bit complex tho later on
Thanks! That’s fair — it does get heavy later. Where did it start getting complex for you?
like much more complex when i unlocked more plants and had to manage the shovels
Thanks for the reply!
