Pixel Bonsai
A browser game made in HTML5

Concept - Welcome to the first dev log for Pixel Bonsai! I should've been logging since this game was in production but I did not expect this game to get to the point its at now. So to begin, I had a simple concept inspired from another game on itch,  where you can grow plants and have a collection. But with my art skills being limited I wanted to try to do something similar but with bonsai trees only, and pixel art. The attached image was the initial concept for the game where you are relaxing in a living room with a bookshelf used to house the plants.  Hoping this quick design will spark more ideas, it did! This game in total took me about 5 months to complete at a part-time pace.  And so the dev logs I will be releasing will be post production discussing how I did some things, and where I got stuck. Enjoy!
