September Update - Coming Soon
The next update will feature updates to the encyclopedia, better water, and more!
Work has started on the third garden, and while I don't know how long it will be, I think this will be the best one so far.
I'm also looking at ways to expand the caverns. They don't have to be as big as the other gardens, but I'll probably sprinkle in some stuff over time to bring it in line with the main garden.
I'm curious if anyone has managed to get any party hats from the previous update? They're meant to be rare, but drop rates might still need some tweaking.
August Update - Released
- Added hats: there are currently three party hats for Mooj to wear. All of them are very difficult to obtain, a great accessory for your favorite Mooj!
- Green Party Hats can be obtained as a rare drop from enemies in the
Creepy Caverns - Red Party Hats can be obtained as a rare drop from enemies in Misty Meadow
- Blue Party Hats can bought from the shop at a hefty price
- Can now pet Mooj by holding the right mouse button while they’re selected. Currently the only purpose is to remove hats, which can be done by continually petting for three seconds.
- Added sound to the building creator buttons
- Added sound to Encyclopedia buttons
- Fixed an issue where the scroll wheel would not function when the mouse hovered over a button in the encyclopedia and the building creator menu
- When colliding with a Mooj Pen forcefield, Mooj will now stop moving for a short period of time. This stops weird behavior where Mooj aggressively vibrate against the wall
- Base Mooj interaction range slightly reduced
- Mooj will no longer collide with enemies at night
Let me know if anything seems buggy, and enjoy!

August Update - One Week
The August Update should be arriving on the 23rd. It will mostly focus on QOL changes with small content additions.
I recently moved to a new city, and a lot of my time has been absorbed by that, meaning this update will be on the smaller side.

July Update - Released
Sandbox mode can be enabled before loading a game
- Enemies won't spawn at night
- Day count won't go up at the dawn of a new day
- Everything else is the same, you'll still be able to forage for food, grow crops, etc
- Added in the Mooj Pen. Keeps Mooj in and out. Things can only be moved through the barrier when held by the player. Can be unlocked in the Cavern garden
- Pause menu can no longer be opened in the main menu
- Shrank the size of messages
- Number of enemy spawns now scale with days passed in the particular garden
- Stronger enemy variants will now spawn at later days
- Mooj will sometimes do neat tricks like backflips and spins
- Mooj will no longer eat forage spawned food before it's been picked up. They'll still eat food spawned by enemies
- Mooj stats fit the chart better when maxed
- Can now move food and seed items between Gardens by holding them while entering
- Seeds will now be saved and loaded
- Mooj will always load in with black outlines
- Daytime now lasts 5 minutes from 4.
- Fixed an issue where items in the shop would not save properly

Creepy Caverns
- Mooj are now brighter/easier to see in Creepy Caverns
- Added more vegetation and detail
- There’s now a sacrificial altar on top of the hill in Creepy Caverns. You can sacrifice any unwanted Mooj for a couple gold coins.
- Added new foods to Cavern (Crabs, lemons)
- Added two new music tracks
- Some foods the used to spawn in the Meadow now spawn in the Cavern instead (Oyster, red pepper)
- Treants are slower but now have an armor stat that flatly reduces damage taken. Green Treants have 5 armor, other variants have more. This makes it so Mooj that have high agility but low strength won’t be as strong in the Caverns.
- Updated Pumpkin sprite
- Unlocking Creepy Caverns now requires a level 2 Mooj, and unlocking the cannon requires a level 3
Let me know what you guys think of the update. I'll probably do a few rounds of fixes/polish before starting next months update.
Cavern Update - Coming Soon
The first content update is coming in one week: July 19th. It focuses on expanding the cavern garden, bringing it up in quality similar to the meadow garden. It will include new enemies, buildings, foods and more.
About a month ago Garden of Mooj entered Early Access, and I'm more than pleased with the results. Thank you to everyone who's given feedback, some of which has already been implemented, and more requested features will be added in the July update.
I know many people want more content in the game, this update should help with that. Stay tuned!
