Pocket Garden

A cozy mobile game jam toy about planting flowers on your phone.

details

Pocket Garden is a mobile gardening game I made with friends (the same folks I made Foetality with) at the JamIsland 2024 game jam, themed Circle of Life.

The idea was a relaxing garden on your phone that goes through the seasons, each with different things to do, e.g. rolling snow into a snowman in winter. In jam time we only managed one season: summer. Players tap to plant three kinds of flowers, make it rain and dig flowers up with a shovel. In the end it became more of a cute little toy for drawing with flowers.
