The game looks lovely judging by the screenshots, but at the time of writing the browser version doesn't work and the windows version would not run under wine so I'm locked out. Would love to try it out if you get the web version going!

Thanks a lot! that did it. As I said the art is lovely, and the music compliments the vibes (I think the music should be a non spatial node, I wasn't sure if my audio was acting up at first).
The game part was a bit confusing? it seems I got «wrong» instructions for caring for the first plant, but I never got any correct instructions, for that or any of the other plants. I kept watering them and trying salting vs. not salting but I'm not sure, the poor lamp plant didn't recover.
Speaking of, watering and salting had no feedback so I'm not sure if the plant was affected or not by their effects, am I supposed to aim the particles or the crosshair at the plant?
I also couldn't go back to previous/next postcards with the buttons, or maybe I was doing something wrong.
As I said the game's vibes are really great :) and I like the idea of caring for magical plants which interact with each other cheers!
P.D. thanks for exporting for my platform!
Thank you so much for taking the time to play, and leaving such good feedback!
We had a lot of ideas and concepts for how we wanted the mechanics to work, but in the end we're very guilty of overscoping. We wanted the granny to keep giving you the wrong instructions because she's forgetful. The player was supposed to figure out how to care for the plants through clues on the plant itself and in the environment.
I think in the end the game turned out more realistic than we wanted, as in real life we also can't figure out why our plants keep dying haha
