Game Jam Release

Pixel Garden
A browser game made in HTML5

We just published the (probably) final version of Pixel Garden for the LowRezJam 2022. This was quite an exciting jam for us, as we managed to get a lot more done than we expected. We hope you'll have some fun playing our game :)

We will go back a bit after the jam and introduce some new mechanics and features that didn't make the cut for the jam.

  • Make pot and hoe an item after it's fully grown
  • Day/ night cycle
  • Randomly change sold plants in seed machines every 30 seconds
  • Food can burn
  • Duck follower, spawned by the Eggplant
  • Fire makes adjacent pots cook
  • Save system
  • Lock the output of some vending machines => always offer a hoe and a pot
