changedPatch 7 has a big design change that we'd love your feedback on. We're doubling the yield of crops! But we're also halfling the value of crops... So what's the point right? Well we're introducing the concept of overflow time to crops. Whenever you did a 50 minute pomodoro for a 25-minute crop like potatoes, it felt like you were wasting a lot of time! No longer will this be the case. You now get double what you would have normally gotten from a 25 minute growth! This will work for all time sequences. Say you are growing a 50-minute crop like tomatoes, which yields 2 by default. Then you set two 20-minute pomodoros followed by a 50 minute pomodoro. That's 90 minutes you spent growing that tomato seed! Previously you would only get the base yield for this, but now you will get (90/50) * 2 tomatoes = 3.6 tomatoes, rounded up to 4 tomatoes!

Happy holidays! We hope your exams went well!

Patch 7 has a big design change that we'd love your feedback on. We're doubling the yield of crops! But we're also halfling the value of crops... So what's the point right? Well we're introducing the concept of overflow time to crops. Whenever you did a 50 minute pomodoro for a 25-minute crop like potatoes, it felt like you were wasting a lot of time! No longer will this be the case. You now get double what you would have normally gotten from a 25 minute growth! This will work for all time sequences.

We hope this helps the game feel and also helps make Cooking and Order board a little bit more worthwhile!

  • Rebalanced the crops

  • Crops now reward yield based on the total pomodoro time used to grow it

  • Minigame music should now properly stop playing when the minigame ends

  • You can no longer earn hints for generic recipes

  • Volume settings now apply immediately on app open

  • Lake visuals have been updated

  • Eko's shop art has been expanded
