The board update was successful. Please let me know should you encounter any issues

--------------

Das Forum update ist erfolgreich. Bitte melde dich sollte iregendwas nicht funktionieren.

This will only affect this discussion board. The game will not be down.

I will be updating the board software to the latest version this upcoming weekend. So please don't be surprised should it not be available for a while. I will be posting here once it is completed

Ich werde die Forum-Software am kommenden Wochenende auf die neueste Version aktualisieren. Also bitte nicht überrascht sein, wenn es für eine Weile nicht verfügbar sein sollte. Ich werde hier posten, sobald es fertig ist

Quote from fuzzbucket

fkrauthan - please to clarify ? SHOULD they be unbreedable ?

Yes at the moment they are unbreedable

The Wiki is fully community managed so it's up to you. But yes it is a seasonal plant that will be available during certain times. The plan is to hopefully add more of this seasonal plants.

Yes they are seasonal

fuzzbucket where would be the fun in telling you exactly when But you might be able to find the date range they could potentially appear online.

Oh yeah that makes it complicated. I was just worried that Paypal doesn't work at all and I miss-configured something.

Enjoy your stay in my "new" home country

fuzzbucket what do you mean by Paypal is not ok? I believe it should allow you to use credit card or Paypal?

And thank you to everyone that is considering helping out. Any money we collect will go directly back into the game. The more we have the more we can do (like creating new mini-games etc)

I am very happy to announce that I have found a new artist who creates amazing artwork for the game (you might have already spotted some of the new content ). However, since I wasn't able to find anyone that produces some art on the side I am paying her. A new flower is around 75-100 USD. Unfortunately, our ad revenue never was great. So I've decided to try something new.

Ko-Fi

Ko-Fi is a platform where you can support this game (all the money collected there goes primarily into new flowers and leftovers will be added towards the server cost). As a thank you advertising will be disabled for you. I hope we can find some people willing and able to support this project in the long term and create a consistent revenue stream to finally grow this game again.

Please do not hesitate to reach out of you have any questions about this step. Should we not get enough supporters new content will be super slow as I can't afford a full-time artist, unfortunately.

Ich freue mich sehr, euch mitteilen zu können, dass ich einen neuen Künstler gefunden habe, der fantastische Kunstwerke für das Spiel erstellt (vielleicht habt Ihr bereits einige der neuen Inhalte entdeckt ). Da ich jedoch niemanden finden konnte, der nebenbei Kunst produziert, bezahle ich sie. Eine neue Blume kostet etwa 75-100 USD. Leider waren unsere Werbeeinnahmen nie großartig. Deshalb habe ich beschlossen, etwas Neues auszuprobieren.

Ko-Fi

Ko-Fi ist eine Plattform, auf der Ihr das Spiel unterstützen können (das gesamte dort gesammelte Geld fließt hauptsächlich in neue Blumen und der Rest werden auf die Serverkosten angerechnet). Als Dankeschön wird die Werbung für Dich deaktiviert. Ich hoffe, dass wir einige Leute finden, die bereit und in der Lage sind, dieses Projekt langfristig zu unterstützen und eine beständige Einnahmequelle zu schaffen, um dieses Spiel endlich wieder wachsen zu lassen.

Bitte zögert nicht, uns zu kontaktieren, wenn Ihr Fragen zu diesem Schritt haben. Sollten wir nicht genügend Unterstützer bekommen, werden neue Inhalte sehr langsam sein, da ich mir leider keinen Vollzeitkünstler leisten kann.

Ok the game is back up. Sorry about the delay.

I am currently looking into the server outage of the game. I will post here as soon as that is resolved.

Yeah that is unfortunately currently the limiting factor. I would love to provide more flowers and minigames but unfortunately I am good with code but can't even draw stick figures...

fuzzbucket I just added you an account. You should have received an email with your password.

Don't forget the wiki is community driven so there might be errors or missing information. Anyone is welcome to contribute to the wiki

Pussy Willow is spawning around easter

Valentine plants are already dropping. And Pussy Willow is an easter plant.

Happy new year to everyone here! Another year in the books. For Flowergame unfortunately a rather quiet year. However, for 2023 I have a couple of exciting plans:

1. Overhaul the Framework/Engine (make it faster/stable/better)
2. Try finding a new 2d artist (please check here and see if you can help)
3. Add the old special event games back
4. A possible secret project (not gonna share much yet but stay tuned)

So please stick around and here is to 2023 and the raise of Flowergame again

-------------------------------

Frohes neues Jahr an alle hier! Ein weiteres Jahr in den Büchern. Für Flowergame leider ein eher ruhiges Jahr. Für 2023 habe ich jedoch ein paar spannende Pläne:

1. Framework/Engine überholen (schneller/stabiler/besser machen)
2. Versuche eine(n) neue(n) 2D-Künstler(in) zu finden (bitte schaut hier wie ihr helfen könnt)
3. Die alten Special-Event-Minispiele wieder hinzuzufügen
4. Ein mögliches Geheimprojekt (wird noch nicht viel verraten, aber seit gespannt)

Also bleib bitte dabei und hier ist bis 2023 und wieder die Erhöhung von Flowergame

I can't make any promises but with the last update of the game the fundamentals are in a really good shape for now so I might be able to start looking into some of the event games again.

Still looking for new artists. If anyone of you knows anyone and/or are part of some artist boards feel free to copy the following text:

Flowergame (https://flowergame.net/) is looking for a new artist. But what is Flowergame? It is a free-to-play flower collection game where users start collecting seeds and by watering them and ensuring there is enough sun slowly grow them through the germ stage to a full-grown plant. Most flowers have different full-grown variants. Some of them can only be achieved by picking up seeds and some only by breeding plants. But it does not just end by having your flower grow up and collect all variants. Over time users unlock different themed gardens where they can plant their flowers and share the link to them with their friends and the wider community.

Unfortunately, we are currently without an active artist to contribute new plants and variants I am looking for someone that can help follow the existing unique art style (examples can be found on the game or by looking through the community-driven wiki https://wiki.flowergame.net/) and provide new plants and potentially new minigame assets. As an artist, you have full freedom in picking which plant you want to add next to the game. And for some special seasons, you can even add some fictional plants (in the past we created burning Christmas trees, scary pumpkins, or Audrey II).

If this cute noncompetitive browser game with a small and very friendly community has piqued your interest and you think you can create pixel art in that style please reach out to Florian Krauthan (florian.krauthan@play-for-today.net).
