Moon Garden Optimizer is a miniature economic strategy puzzle game.  Grow a tiny garden on the moon while conserving water.  Use unlimited undo to try again, but do it better.  Each garden has a randomized toolset to make it unique.

It’s a deck builder, but without a deck, and without RNG.  It’s a roguelike sokoban farming sim.  A difficult game with the low pressure of a cozy game.

Not guaranteed to work on mobile devices.

All dialogue, sprites, sound effects, and music created by hand by me, with the exception of the Earth sprite, which was sourced from Helianthus Games (https://helianthus-games.itch.io/animated-pixel-art-planets).  You can find my music here: https://waveseye.bandcamp.com/album/moon-garden-optimizer-ost

This is a complete game with at least 5 hours of gameplay, but I'm still interested in expanding.  Follow me for updates.

It was interesting but I had no idea how to spend berries to get energy, so never made it past the pine tree in the tutorial.

Thanks for the feedback!  Gems are automatically spent whenever you try to spend more energy than you have available.
