Description



Choo choo! The train is pulling into the station, bringing the very first batch of gourdlet citizens to their new island home. Your job is to build them a perfect town.

But don’t worry – Gourdlets are super laid back, and they’ll be happy no matter what you build. The only real challenge is pleasing yourself!



From cafes to lighthouses, planters to fountains, there’s a huge catalogue of decorations to play with. You can even go inside buildings and arrange the furniture how you like.

The gourdlets will make themselves at home in your town, fishing, reading, camping, snoozing, and generally having a grand old time. Craft the perfect veggie town in Gourdlets!



You can choose to play in full screen, or in “idle window mode” to let your gourdlets hang out at the bottom of your screen while you get on with other things on your PC.



Features:
  • Build a perfect town and watch the adorable gourdlets inhabit your world!
  • A super chill game with no objectives or fail states!
  • Gourdlets hang out at the bottom of your screen in idle window mode!
  • Customize your Gourdlet citizens with cute accessories!
  • Day-night cycles and customizable weather!
  • A huge catalogue of buildings and decorations!
  • Choose from a variety of starter maps for an extra creative challenge!
  • Zero currency! (Capitalism makes the gourdlets tired)

This game was such an unexpected treasure. I love Gourdlets!! And hats off to the Dev, 10/10. I'm always impressed by a one person dev, but this game was exceptionally made. Its hard to find true, non-capitalism cozy games. You just get to build your island and enjoy seeing the gourdlets interact with the world. I cannot recommend this game enough. In the future I would love to have even more objects to place, and I

Conflicted on my rating. While I think this is a very cute game, there are obvious issues.

I do enjoy the building aspect of the game, from building towns to farms to interiors. I think the game is still being worked on so the future of
