Hello! Just wanted to share a game I’ve been working on that’s heavily inspired by permaculture.
A while back I visited an research farm in a super dry area where they were helping townfolks improve their farming capabilities. They were using ollas for irrigation to help with the dry land, planting aromatic herbs next to lettuces to deter bugs, rotating beans to fix nitrogen, even making garlic and chili sprays. It really stuck with me, and I’ve been wanting to make a game influenced by that kind of smart, resourceful farming.
Now I’m building Pollinarium, a minimalist, turn-based gardening strategy game. These are a sample of my “appliances” 😊: bee hotels, wild ponds, rainwater tanks, compost bins, hügelkultur mounds, insect sanctuaries, etc. All based on different permaculture farming practices.
If you’re curious:
Is there anything that you would like to see?
