About Bloomy

A small, independent game.

What it is

Bloomy is a cozy incremental game that runs in the browser. It is about a garden that mostly looks after itself and the cats who take rather too much credit for it. You plant flowers, the flowers bring bees, the bees make honey, and the honey persuades more cats that this is a good place to live. Then, when everyone is tired, the garden sleeps and starts again a little wiser.

Why it exists

Most idle games are built around pressure: timers that punish you for looking away, energy bars, offers that expire. Bloomy tries to be the opposite. Nothing is on a clock you have to obey, nothing is lost by closing the tab, and nothing can be bought. It is meant to be the kind of game you check on over a morning coffee, see what the cats have been up to, and leave again feeling slightly better than before.

How it is made

The whole game runs in your browser. The garden is simulated on your own device, the save stays there, and the same simulation is what works out how much grew while you were away — so offline progress is the garden actually running, just more slowly, rather than an estimate.

The music is not a recording. The game composes it as it goes, a slow chord at a time, so it never loops in quite the same way twice. The cats choose what to do by themselves, according to their traits, and the friendships between them come out of what they happen to do together rather than from a script.

The balance is tested as seriously as the code: automated simulations play the game from an empty garden onwards to check that progress keeps a sensible pace, that no upgrade breaks the economy, and that the optional butterfly gifts stay a bonus rather than a requirement.

How it is funded

Bloomy is free to play and has nothing for sale. It is supported by a single, optional advert format: a butterfly occasionally visits with a gift, and you may watch a short advert to collect it. Ads are served by Google. They never appear unprompted, never interrupt play, and are never needed to progress. How your data is handled is described in the privacy page.
