gardener 2842 here. my entire family lives half an hour's car ride from the ukrainian border. those of slavic descent are well acquainted with war, and it shows in the way the people try to help. we look at our streets and imagine them on fire, but we do not have to imagine. they look the same as those of ukraine. so do the apartments, the elderly, the shops. we gather poppies to replace their sunflowers. at least here i can grow them instead
Hello, I am gardener 1890! I hope my Ukrainian friends will be alright. Friends, Please stay Strong and shine like a Sunflower! And thank you for the game too!
i dont really know what number i am but i remember seeing 1707 somewhere, i hope people in ukraine are doing fine, this game you made is really sweet and caring! <3
I just wanna say when Ukraine wins lets just keep the game its a nice vibe and im finna say lets get mr beast onto this sh! and say for evrey flower planted there gonna be a floewr planted in ukraine
gardener 1444 here <3 just wanna say this is a super sweet game im defiantly gonna donate some more money to ukraine (wish i could give them a bunch of weapons tho lol) but i really think theyll win !! i have some family members that where in ukraine but their safe now. ty for such a nice game <33 !!!
My heart broke at the sadness and tragedy of war and how much suffering there has been and will be until hope arises and ends this madness. But there is a glimmer of joy in seeing a sunflower bloom and my heart and prayers are with the people of Ukraine. You created a special and endearing game in support of Ukraine. God save them and their beautiful country. <3
A wonderful game that proves that video games are an art and can be used to bring up complex topics. I thank the developer, and I urge people to be kinder.
if i can only plant one plant per account , im gonna need to make multiple alt accounts , the sound of artillery in the distant makes you feel scared , but other than that good luck ukraine :]
Great idea. The game is well done and is able to bring people from all over the world to come and show their support. Please stay safe everyone, love from Poland
Amazing choice of using the current crisis as a way of bringing people together and to share awareness on it. I do have a suggestion though, can you let people to have 1 seed forever but get 2 watering canisters daily? It allows for a reason/purpose to come back to the game that isn't JUST to check around.
Nevermind, I just realised that, when you join back, you get 6 cans and 1 seed again. That should be recognized after the 1st playthrough, though. If you get 6 cans and 1 seed per boot-up, one person can do all the work themselves.
Nice work. I've been thinking a lot lately about creating some sort of experience to help people think a little more about what is going on. Good for you for doing this. I'm gardener #28.

A simple idea with a powerful message. This was surprisingly chilling.
OMG, that's an idea I can't describe in any words. Only when we are together we can help each other.
Greetings from Kherson, Ukraine.
Привіт, ми з України.
Also, this one should be "Кожному гравцеві дається 1 насіння і можливість поливати до 6 різних рослин"
Thank you so much! I'll add this to the next patch.
Please stay safe.
It looks like the garden is fully planted. I'm revisiting when I can. It's very contemplative.
Ah, nevermind. It looks like they disappear after a while. Very nice.
Show post...
peace.
Excellent, thank you for making and sharing this.

yeah...i think this is a bug
Great idea. I like the aesthetic choice.
