New Weather Puzzle Game Feature

Being able to change the weather is one of the most appreciated features in Greenhouse. It's so satisfying to watch the entire environment and atmosphere change under your eyes.

Many players said it would be great if the weather mechanic was tied to some kind of puzzle or was necessary to progress in the game. So, that's exactly what we did! We secretly went to work and created a new weather puzzle game feature. We've also packed a bunch of other upgrades, improvements and fixes in this update:

Gameplay upgrades

• Beachball can now be thrown like a normal ball

• Added footprint hints to help player know where to stand when aligning the bridge perspective puzzles near the penguins

• Smart dynamic environment and signs to prevent unintentional backtracking and balance gameplay

• Tutorial hint text stays on slightly longer and blinks briefly to better catch attention

• Added Tutorial hint for door handles interactions

• More details to underground environment, new liminal hallway after restaurant, new props such as long sunbathing chairs, tricycle toy

• Made revolving doors key mechanism easier to see

• Made water waves more fluid

• Changed the load saved game icon on the home screen to be more different from save icon
