What's in the pack

A small farming game for Godot 4 that works from the first click. Till the soil, plant, water every morning, harvest, sell your crops and buy more seeds. Open the project, press F5, and build your own farming game on top of it. The pixel art, the UI, the sounds and the music are included.

Licence in one line: the code is MIT; the art may be used in your own games, free or commercial, but not shared or sold as art or as a starter kit.

What you get

  • A farmer who walks in 4 directions and uses a hoe, a watering can and seeds, each with its own animation (from the Farm RPG pack's 27 animations).
  • A fenced field where tilled soil joins up by itself (a 47-tile autotile), with a dry and a watered look for the soil and for every crop.
  • 4 crops (carrot, turnip, potato, strawberry) that grow one stage per watered morning; a crop left dry for 3 days withers and the hoe clears it.
  • A day clock from 6:00 to midnight with sunset and night light; sleep in the barn or fall asleep in the field.
  • A hotbar, a shipping bin that pays the next morning, coins and a seed shop.
  • Save and load (every morning, and from the pause menu), a main menu with Continue, a pause menu.
  • Keyboard, mouse and gamepad, pixel-perfect scaling (640x360 base resolution), music and sound effects.

Made to be changed

  • Short scripts with comments that say what to change: items and crops in one file, the day length and prices as constants.
  • The map is painted with TileMapLayers in the editor; the TileSet's terrains paint soil, paths and water, and fences and water have collision.
  • A README with the controls, how the project is organised and 5 first changes to make it yours (add a crop, change the pace, grow the field, add a tool, add seasons or a farmhouse).
  • A play test that plays the whole loop by itself (till, water, plant, grow, harvest, wither, ship, get paid, buy, sleep, pause, save, load) and prints a line per check.

What it does not include

No seasons, animals, fishing, villagers or farmhouse interior: those are in the Farm RPG pack, ready for you to add. Godot 4.7 or newer is needed (made with 4.7.2, Compatibility renderer). The art is licensed for games made with this project; to use the packs elsewhere, get the packs.

The art comes from these Gridwright packs

Farm RPG (the farmer and the seed seller, the farm TileSet, buildings, props, trees, icons), Cozy UI (Cottage theme), Pixel Fonts, Retro Sound Effects, Footsteps & Foley and Chiptune Music. Only the files this game uses are included. The full packs are in Gridwright Studio: https://gridwright.store
