Start menu fix

We fixed an issue that could prevent some players from starting the game because the Continue, Load, and New Grove buttons on the start screen could not be clicked.

This should help players who were previously unable to get past the initial menu.

Rotatable activity spots

You can now rotate Dance Spots, Telescopes, and Trampolines, making it easier to fit them naturally into your grove.

New minimization options

We added more control over what happens when Focus Grove is minimized. You can now choose to minimize the game:

  • to the Mini Pomodoro Timer,

  • completely to the system tray,

    • with tools,

    • or without tools.

The new without tools option was added because some users experienced the Windows taskbar appearing automatically. Previously, keeping the tools available required part of the game window to remain displayed. Choosing the new option now hides Focus Grove completely.

Woodling improvements

We also made a small improvement to Woodling behavior. A Woodling should no longer get stuck after finishing a build when several of them are working on the same object, such as a Chessboard.

That is all for today’s small update - but a much bigger announcement is coming very soon! :)
