Description

Garden Paws is a relaxing role-playing game that doesn't limit your play style. Create your perfect simulation, whether you want to spend your days farming, exploring, fishing, questing or fighting.

In Garden Paws you have inherited your grandparents farm as they set off to travel the world. Aid Frank and Mayor Wilson in building up the town so it may reach its full potential.

In order to expand your home, and build up the nearby town, you're going to need coins. What better way to earn those coins than by running a shop! Explore the islands and caves collecting everything from poop to flowers to sell to the local villagers. Once you have some seeds you can dive into Farming, or many of the other activities on the islands including, Crafting, Fishing, Mining and Questing.

Once you have some spare coin talk to Frank to commission new buildings in town, with each building bringing unique Upgrades, Shops, Quests and even New Areas to explore, you'll have plenty to keep you busy!

History

Garden Paws is a passion project by Daniel Snd and Kristina Vandale. The project was born as the couple set out to make a game they would like to play together, pulling from the thousands of hours they spent playing games in this genre.

After a month of development the game was sent out to a select group of 20 alpha testers and with the initial feedback they saw they were in the right track. Even with a small demo with a fraction of the planned features the testers were hooked and most played for over 10 hours in a single week.

With the desire to build a bigger community to gather feedback and help the game grow, the team started working towards releasing a Kickstarter campaign, launching a successful campaign on August 9th 2018.

Since then the game was released on Steam December 2018 and received countless updates with more content, going far beyond what was originally planned.

Features

• EXPLORE: With each area that you explore there are new items to find, collect, sell and even wear. Around every corner there is a chance to find hidden treasure, so you'll want to explore every chance you get.
• DUNGEON : Dive into the dungeon and battle monsters on 10 epic levels, take on the boss if you dare.
• MULTIPLAYER: You don't have to go alone on this new adventure, invite up to 9 friends to join you online. From shopkeeping to taming and exploring, everything is better with friends.
• CUSTOMIZATION: There are 10 characters to choose from, the Fox, Bunny, Bear, Dragon, Cat, Bird, Badger, Chipmunk, Horse and Dog. Each character has a unique appearance and for all the characters there are over 400 skins and over 150+ dye-able clothing items to customize your character unique to you.

• QUESTING: Don't go too far, the townsfolk will need your help rebuilding their town, especially when a natural disaster strikes. Help build up the town and local buildings introducing new quests, areas and items along the way. There are over 700 quests with a minimum of 30 hours of content to explore, don't worry if you finish all the quests there are new ones every season.
• FARMING: Dig up seeds with flowers and vegetables in the wild or talk to Sammy the Seed Seller to purchase new seeds. Use your hoe to till the soil, then make sure to water it every day until your crops are ready to harvest. After a couple of days, harvest your crops and then cook them up or wrap them in a bouquet to sell in your shop.
• FISHING: There is water everywhere! So it's no surprise that the villagers on these islands like to fish. Whether it's dawn or dusk there is a large variety of fish to catch.

In Garden Paws you can raise and tend to many animals including Chicks, Ducks, Calves, Alpacas, Foxes, Ferrets, Goats, Sheep, Horses, Rabbits and more. All of your larger mature animals can also be mounts to help you get around faster if you want a break from gliding around.

There are over 60 wallpapers and hundreds of items to keep you building all night.
• COOKING: There are multiple cooking stations to make your favorite treats, whether it's grilled fish, pies or salads you can take your shop to the next level by selling your delicious dishes.
• BUILD YOUR HOME: Work with Frank at the local construction shop to upgrade the home your grandparents left you, when they set off to travel the world. Want something bigger or in another location? Build some foundations and walls to build anything from a small fishing shack to a large castle!
• BUILD UP THE TOWN: In Garden Paws you'll have the opportunity to commission new buildings, bringing in new townsfolk and seeing the town grow due to your efforts.
