I am on a break on this game coworking currently. I really like it, I think something that docks a few points for me on it is the UI is a little iffy to use and getting snails to unlock extra characters is difficult. I wish there was a little more info on how to use it within the game. The window size is really small, at least on macbook, it seems to be ok on windows pc. Other than that it's a cute focus game and I highly recommend it! It's definitely kept me accountable.
It's cute but my ADHD makes me forget to use it constantly.
A cute Pomodoro game that allows you to go through seasons planting and growing produce to sell. It's very simple to play. You can adjust the "focus" and "break" times to what you want, but you can also use the default 30 (focus)/5 (break)/15 (long break) times provided. I love using it to do simple tasks throughout my day.
Pomodoro is a time management technique that breaks work into 25-minute periods separated by a 5-minute break. PomoFarm takes this technique and makes a game out of it where each work period is an in-game week where your crops grow, then during the 5-minute break (which you can make as short or long as you want) you can harvest them, sell them, water them, or plant more. It doesn't take long so you have time to do whatever you want during that break, but it's still a nice rush of dopamine that makes for an addicting gameplay loop. It's essentially the Stardew Valley-ification of the Pomodoro technique and it works so well. This past week has been finals and I've literally been so productive because of this cute little game. There are some additions I wish the game had, like more customization when it comes to decorating the farm à la Stardew Valley or maybe a house à la Animal Crossing, but what it sets out to do it does perfectly.
