BuGarden A garden that lives on your desktop

BuGarden is a tiny flower garden that lives at the bottom of your screen while you work or study.

No timers, no fail state, just something pretty growing beside everything else.

A garden that grows while you do other things

BuGarden sits in the corner of your screen, growing quietly as you work, study, or hang out. You plant seeds, give them water and fertilizer, then watch them bloom at their own pace. Harvest brings cute fruits and flowers, plus new seeds, tools, and decorations to unlock.

Feeling lazy is part of the design. Your snail companion waters plants for you, and you can dress up its shell. When you need to focus, one click hides the extra bits and leaves only the flowers swaying beside you.

No stress, some bugs, one helpful snail

There is nothing to lose here. No timers, no fail state, no mess to clean up. The closest thing to trouble is pesky bugs to swat away from your plants.

It is farming at a snail's pace, literally. Everything is hand-drawn, colorful, and cute, built to keep you company rather than keep you busy. For farming fans who want planting and harvesting without chores or seasons, this is the lightest possible plot to tend.

Good to know before you plant?

What do you actually do in it?

You plant seeds, water and fertilise them, harvest flowers and fruit, swat bugs, and spend your progress on new seeds, tools, decorations, and shell styles for the snail.

Does anything punish you for ignoring it?

No. There are no timers and no fail state, so neglected plants simply wait. It suits short check-ins and long idle stretches alike.
