Very cute and moody- exactly what I like. Although lacks in gameplay it sure deilvers in being comfy!


I really like the music, color palette, and vibe. I cannot seems to win however. I got all the plants!

@elenamisubean Oh wow, that’s a lot of flowers! The white flower that looks like a tree didn’t fully grow, so it didn’t count. There was a bug with it, but I think I’ve fixed it now

Very relaxing, and the mood of this game is exceptional. It's a nice change of pace. I was able to grow several plants, but I was sometimes puzzled by Bumk (e.g., I couldn't figure out how to water plants, if that's even possible, though at times he would arrive with a pail). I love the color scheme and the animated fireplace. You are a talented artist.

I really liked the game. I completed it completely, thank you for the gift of time!

Very nice game! Very calm and soothing. I got to the end and became a master collector, though it took a while of waiting for the final flower.

There were some smaller feedback things to the player that could have been a bit clearer. Like, I think the book (?) gives you the button in the upper corner to learn about how to grow the plants. The progress circle/flower could fill out the leaf a bit more attention grabbing when you actually have the fully grown plant and same for when you loose it. It's placement could have been a bit more central too. For the book, it felt oddly stressful that the little Bumk kept coming around with stuff while you had it open, so perhaps Bumk should be away while reading to keep with the cozy vibe.

It would also have been nice if the game increased the probability of me getting the stuff I was waiting for towards the end so it doesn't turn into a waiting game.

But over all a very very good game.

Playthrough with some more feedback:

Thank you so much for the video! It was really helpful.
I agree with all your points — I didn’t have time to finish some of the VFX indicators (like on the flower counter or when the book appears), and I also didn’t manage to fine-tune Boomk’s pseudo-random behavior, since I spent too much time on the drag-and-drop system on the first day.

That’s why the game can feel a bit frustrating when Boomk keeps bringing the same items for too long.

I’m really glad you managed to finish the game despite the bad luck with RNG at the end!

Very cozy game! I love the color palette and the dragging physics were really satisfying!

Cozy game with nice physics, would be nice if you even need to take care not to drop any. Good work.

Nice little game, very cozy atmosphere, great graphics!

I really got hooked on the game trying to grow all the plants... It's really convenient that you added a progress bar for the plants you've collected from your collection; it fits in perfectly.

There was only a small bug with the clock; its hands would appear behind the wall while the character was carrying it.
I also found the soundtrack a bit sad, albeit cozy.

Overall, the game looks super cute. I was pleased with the color scheme and animations of all the plants, and the fact that the character follows our cursor.

Also, when you collect all the plants, a victory message appears, giving you a sense of accomplishment (something that's often missing in jam games).


Super nice game, I loved it. I wasn't sure if it would be interesting enough gong in but the overall experience was so relaxing that I stuck with it. At some point I became worried because Bumk kept asking for the same flower I didn't have but it was just coincidence apparently. I would LOVE to see this as a larger game.
Because I also tried programming plants lately, did you use L-systems for the flowers?

@ranarh
Thanks a lot for the feedback — I’m really glad you enjoyed the game!

The fact that Bumk kept bringing the same flowers wasn’t exactly a coincidence
I didn’t have enough time to properly balance things, so the progression system works like this: depending on how many unique flowers you’ve collected, the game has about 4–5 “offers” that get randomized. The only restriction is that Bumk can’t bring the same item twice in a row, but yeah — that’s definitely not enough for a comfortable experience

As for the L-system, I had to look it up — turns out I’ve done something similar in PICO-8 before.
In this game, though, it’s just 9 flower types animated in Unity’s Animator (grow/idle).
In hindsight, spending that time on balance, VFX, or SFX probably would’ve been a better idea — but hey, it is what it is 😅

Loved the mood and music, but Bumk please stop bringing me more pots. I need seeds! Seeeds!

@yellowkamel
Oh, I totally get that — I had the same kind of last-minute seedless run before release, which is actually how the game ended up with its name :)

Such a simple concept, yet quite addicting. Very cozy game. Bumk is quite funny, those dumb eyes are amazing. I like the fact that you can decorate the room with the plants you collected. The mood is great overall! Good job! :D

Cute, I appreciate the gameplay's change of pace and objectives from most of the other jam games. A little bit of rng causing a small seed stockpile, but overall a chill experience collecting and organizing my little indoor garden.

Oh, I really like this a lot. I love the design of Bumk so much and the color scheme is extremely pleasing to the eye, which is great to see as it's surprisingly uncommon in jam games. The "physics engine" interactions cracked me up seeing it the first time. It's just a little calm thing, but it's great that you were able to scope small and focus on making the game the best it could be. :)

I really tried to get all 9 plants but couldn't make it. Bad luck probably. :sweat_smile:

The game really transports it's mood and the graphics are very well done. I have to say the game is pretty stressful when waiting for Bumk to finally bring over some pots while the seeds are stacking up.

A nice chill and cozy winter game. I like the overall vibe. I kept knocking over the pots :smile:

Wow, I really like it! Was very fun to play, and the graphics is super cosy and nice!
