I changed the name of my game from "Mystic Village" to "Gourdlets".
Mystic Village is a nice name, but I myself found that I kept forgetting it, which didn't seem like a great sign. I decided that I wanted to name the game after the little creatures in the game. I've been referring to them as 'spirits' and 'villagers', but I think they need a more unique name than that. I was thinking "seedlings", because that's such a cute word, but I really wanted a made-up name that was related to something real. After writing down a million different iterations ("Plant Archipelago?"), I eventually realized that "gourd" is a great word, and "gourdlets" sounds cute.
