So excited for this!!! The music slaps! and the very focused mechanics are lots of fun! Way to go Tricko!
So, I finally hit that damn green button.

I don't know how I feel yet but I achieved something big.

I have a long list of people I'd like to thank, but I'm putting all of them in the game's credit, so if your curious just buy the game :D

Peeking at the new UI for Pollinarium!

Victorian seed packets + Portuguese tile patterns = the new vibe!

Getting closer to the demo!

This is the coloured version of the gardeners in Pollinarium! The gardeners impact the current run by modifying synergies, value, or growth.

Here is the newest version (still WIP) of Pollinarium's UI. Inspired by Victorian posters and seed packages (and some Portuguese azulejos).

You can take a look here: store.steampowered.com/app/3833630/...

Here is the first coloured version of the mockup for the new UI for Pollinarium!! With pre-industrial influences and using tiles instead of cards.

Some stuff needs to be ironed out: text contrast, new colour buttons, and the previous card plant icons.

I'm working on the concept of "farmers" for Pollinarium. They modify the rules of the run.

Whenever I have a new idea I do this in three steps after the idea is seeded 🧵(1/4)

Been playing with a new UI style for Pollinarium, drawing inspiration from Victorian seed packs.

(The banner might’ve time-traveled a few extra centuries, though)

Two updates for Pollinarium!

Improving visual cues: now it’s easier to see how synergies affect nearby plants at a glance!

Gardener (still on the drawing board): choose the Planner, Polliculturist, or the Forager which will tweak the rules of your run!

Been experimenting with card styles for Pollinarium! I'm leaning towards a retro Victorian style found on seed packages.

I mocked up 6 different options to test style, layout, hierarchy, and readability.

I’ve been tweaking the demo layouts for Pollinarium, they’re now landscape instead of portrait!

The goal is to make better use of the PC screen space :)!
