Get the Concord plush here!

Ever since our lil grape’s debut in Garden Story, we’ve been getting TONS of requests to make a plushie. Maybe it’s something about Concord’s captivating smile. Well, whatever it is, we couldn’t agree more and we are finally making it happen! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35149440/4c412c7de696fed5aad9379083b5d0e5f94484f7.png Everybody’s favorite grape is now a plushie and we can’t contain our excitement!

Hi everyone, Thank you so much for tuning into our broadcast of the Garden Story OST. We hope you enjoyed the relaxing tunes and sounds of the Grove. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35149440/140d870e670b7bcb55bf61f8d26add67672f799a.png Starting today, we are streaming Garden Story content on our Steam page 24/7, including: 🌱 First 30 Minutes of Gameplay with Rose City Games co-founder, Will Lewis 🌱 Developer Stream from Picogram 🌱 Tiny jams from composer, Grahm Nesbitt Be sure to check out this never before seen content, streaming right here on our Steam page! ~Rose City Games .............................. Find us on Discord Follow Garden Story on Twitter

Hi I’m Grahm, the composer of Garden Story. The game is launching this Summer, and to celebrate, I’m streaming a preview of the Garden Story soundtrack here on Steam.  When I composed this game's soundtrack I tried to combine everything I love about my favorite RPG scores: from cozy village tunes, to mysterious dungeon themes, to upbeat battle tracks. My inspiration comes from all the games I played when I was a kid: Zelda games like Ocarina of Time and Wind Waker, Chrono Trigger, Pokémon series, Undertale, Animal Crossing series, and Final Fantasy X.   We will only be streaming this for just today, so enjoy it while it lasts!

Hello, Richelle from Rose City Games here and I’m super excited to share some news about Garden Story. For the first time ever, I’d like to introduce… Cosmetics! As a guardian of The Grove, Concord wears many hats. Now, they have a hat for every occasion whether they’re exploring, dowsing, or fending off the rot. Each region in The Grove offers unique hats and bags— Try and collect them all! (Hats and bags are purely cosmetic and do not have any special abilities... but they sure look cool!) Cosmetics will be available at launch. Be on the lookout for more news from Garden Story coming soon! Best, Richelle & The Garden Story Team ................................................................................. Join us on Discord Follow us on Twitter

Town Progression

And what about Garden Story's development? We wanted to share a bit more about town progression! One of the main systems of Garden Story -- the ability to improve life in the Grove through helpful acts -- is also making great progress. Here’s a sample of how, as Concord goes to bed each evening, you’ll see a recap of how the day went, and what to anticipate for the next morning. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35149440/8ed0a27ba7a6830fa8924a0370d263f30b4bd540.gif

Before we leave for the holidays, we wanted to introduce you to another citizen of the Grove, share a new song, as well as celebrate our fundraiser for No Kid Hungry!

👋Introducing Plum

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35149440/bffce7fd4f15c2f836e906f5b2591b9bb43b63ee.gif You’ve heard about Concord and how they’re stepping into the role of Guardian for their community, but do you ever wonder who will teach them what that entails?  Rana and Elderberry -- along with other helpers like Fuji and Maraschino -- will absolutely assist Concord, but in addition to neighbors and friends, there are other guardians! Introducing Concord's mentor: Plum. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35149440/be10a7e54a768a2c3b134360b7ad56d3614f6248.gif Concord wishes they could spend more time with Plum, but for now, Plum's days are filled with learning more about the increasing Rot, and town repairs must take precedence!

Get Your Headphones Ready 🎧

As a little bonus, we also wanted to share a brand-new song from an area we haven’t shown very much of so far: Winter Glade.  Like Autumn Town and Summer Bar, Winter Glade has also found itself disconnected and in a state of disrepair.  To accompany the new track from our wonderful composer, Grahm Nesbitt, we also have the first ever peek at Winter Glade’s library and its mayor, Ledidi. We hope you enjoy it!  

🎉 Fundraiser Success

Thanks to everyone’s help and generosity, the fundraiser for No Kid Hungry was a roaring success: we surpassed our initial goal of $300 to raise a whopping $560.42! YAY! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35149440/bf8e6c2da2a1920e497ffb867c68deca75412f26.png Because we made it beyond our stretch goal, we’ve got a special celebratory stream to kick off the new year!  On Wednesday, January 6th starting at 3 PM PDT, the Garden Story and Rose City Games team will be playing Among Us. Tune in on Twitch to see who’s the most suspicious on our team…

 Happy Holidays 💜

2020 has been a challenging year in so many ways, but being able to develop Garden Story and interact with all of you has kept our spirits up -- whether on social media, in Discord, and now in our livestreams.  As always, please let us know if you have any questions about Garden Story. We’ll see you in the new year! 💖 Jenny & the Garden Story team

A core belief of the Garden Story team is that a sense of community is central to our well-being, and that positive and impactful actions we take within our communities can help them thrive. We’re proud to announce one action we’re taking is to fundraise for No Kid Hungry throughout the month of December! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35149440/bf8e6c2da2a1920e497ffb867c68deca75412f26.png No Kid Hungry provides food to kids through free meal programs and food skills education to families. Whether it’s supporting kids through free meals during the summer or providing food education for families: we appreciate No Kid Hungry’s mission, and we think the fruits, veggies, and fungi of the Grove would too! We also won’t be fundraising alone! We're teaming up with Streamline Media Group, and the No Kid Hungry ambassador streamers to showcase a bevvy of food-focused and family-friendly indie titles throughout the month of December! Every dollar donated is the equivalent of supporting a kid for 10 meals. We'd love it if you could join us, whether it's helping spread the word, hanging out in the stream, or through a financial contribution!

Kicking Things Off: Giving Tuesday (December 2nd)

Giving Tuesday (Dec 01st) is the first day of our fundraising festivities, and you can find all of the fun on Twitch! The celebration will begin at 3 PM PDT when we play the adorable demo for Toasty, a charming game that’s currently in development, and then putting our match-3 fighting skills to the test with some Battle Chef Brigade! At 5:30 PM PDT, we’ll join the wonderful ladies of GPTV on their channel as they play the Garden Story demo! You’ll definitely want to tune in: in addition to playing the demo, there will be some fun giveaways. (Stickers, anyone?)

The fun doesn’t stop when Giving Tuesday is done!

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35149440/609a23ac73760c9f8aac2352c6e5dbd481b9a15c.png For the following three Wednesdays (Dec 2,9, and 16), we’ll be bringing back the weekly Rose City Games' livestreams and showcasing even more indies as we continue our fundraising efforts. In keeping with the theme, we’ll be playing indie game demos and released titles that all have to do with food and community ~ be sure to follow us on Twitch to get the notifications when we’re live, and see what games we have in store! (Psssst! There will also be giveaways of the released games that we're playing! You don't wanna miss it!) If you’re wanting -- and able -- to support our fundraising, feel free to use this link to donate and help us meet our channel goal of $300!

Talk soon!

We'll be back with lots of fun updates on what’s been going on in the Grove! As always, please don’t hesitate to let us know if you have any questions about Garden Story: we’ll do our best to answer them! Cheers, 🌱Jenny + the Garden Story Team

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35149440/fe02a1f4322ff54eaa369f262f59774a4b3041e1.gif October is almost done, and we've got lots of updates we've been working through to make YOUR first visit to the Grove a good one! Time to give you a glimpse at a few of these updates. --------------------------------------

Text Box Touch-ups

Picogram has been sprucing up text boxes to look a little more interesting… more like stationary/sticky notes! We love how they add even more personality to the the already very colorful characters of Spring Hamlet (and beyond). {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35149440/4c22536a7e6ecb052c2ae144e51155bbd7f36fe0.gif --------------------------------------

Snow’s Shop is Open for Business!

In the demo, many of you got to meet Kabocha, the shop-keeper in Autumn Town! Spring Hamlet also has a shop of it's own with loads of building supplies, tools, and even some fun bits and bobbles with more *unique* properties. Snow is the fruit-in-charge here, and they're looking forward to having you stop by for a visit! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35149440/ccd148bf5f384a192baf07035a806e70a41c392b.gif --------------------------------------

Sneak Peek: Dungeon Content

From the depths of the Grove comes this *artist recreation* of part of a Rot dungeon in the works. Even in sketch form, those frowny faces are intimidating! Rana better watch out too, cause it looks like more puzzles will be a part of future adventures. 😉 {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35149440/aebadd7d30ae89617a144f56c0121ceab6807051.png --------------------------------------

After the event is done on Tuesday, October 13th, 2020, we’ll be closing the elevator up to Autumn Town and retiring the demo from Steam permanently, but don’t worry: If its downloaded and in your library, the demo will be yours to play to your heart’s content, so be sure to get it while you can. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35149440/15a80e8715807f59c2ed8b59eac1395d887378a5.gif To send off the demo with a fond farewell and celebrate the Festival, we’re broadcasting pre-recorded footage filled with Fall-themed goodness throughout the weekend. So get ready to cozy up and relax! This weekend you’ll see:

• Picogram, the developer, showcasing some BTS pixel art creation from Autumn Town (see if you can spot a new character!)
• Our composer, Grahm Nesbitt playing the Autumn Town evening theme.
• Corey and Will, co-founders of publisher Rose City Games, showcasing demo gameplay and talking about Garden Story’s development.
