"Overoptimistic plant takes care of you" is a game made for #selfcarejam


You're a mess

You hardly take care of youself

A friend has gifted you a very special plant

One that can't die and will take care of you

BREATH


My drawings are terrible, but I have fun while making them, so a hand-drawn project seemed like a good idea for a jam where you're supposed to do something that makes you happy.

The plant will grow regardless of your actions, you can just speed the process up a little bit.

If you write nice things (or just whatever you feel like) it'll grow faster. If you play music it'll grow faster. If you use the magnifying glass to spot ladybugs it'll grow faster.

Or you can just wait.

Wouldn't it be great to have a plant that takes care of you?
