TileGarden is a cozy little puzzle about growing a garden under a changing sky.

Nine flower plots, one season of weather. The weather always rolls in along the same lanes, but you can turn the whole garden beneath it. Line up the sun-lovers under the heatwave, swing the frost-shy daisies out of the cold snap, and try to get every plant blooming before the season ends.

โš  This is an early alpha. It is playable from start to finish, but things will change, break and get prettier. Your feedback decides where it goes next!

How it plays

  • ๐ŸŒฆ Read the forecast โ€“ every weather event is announced before it arrives, and the minimap shows which plants it would help or hurt.
  • ๐Ÿ”„ Rotate the garden (Q / E) โ€“ your main tool. You can even turn it while the weather is passing over.
  • ๐Ÿชด Every flower has a personality โ€“ some love the sun or the rain, others can't bear frost or storms.
  • ๐Ÿ’ง A few helping hands โ€“ a watering can, a shelter flip and an undo, each with limited uses per season.
  • โญ Earn up to three stars โ€“ bloom 3, 6 or all 9 plants. Finish a season and a fence grows around your garden.
  • ๐ŸŽฒ Endless random gardens โ€“ every garden is generated and checked to be solvable, from Easy to Legendary. Harder gardens grow lusher and prettier.
  • ๐Ÿšถ Take a walk โ€“ stroll through your finished garden in first person, meet the animals, and decorate it by hand.

  • Did the rotate-the-garden idea click for you?
  • Was it too easy, too hard, or just right?
  • Did anything break or run slowly? (Please include your GPU and the garden seed from the pause menu.)
