Pixel Garden 🌱
A pixel-art garden that grows while you code, with no limit.
How it works
- Every 100 characters you type gives you 1 exp.
- Every 10 exp gives your garden 1 growth: a new seed is planted, or your plants grow to the next tier.
- Plants grow from seed → sprout → small plant → fully grown tree, flower, or cactus.
- When a row of land is fully grown, a new row unlocks. The garden never stops growing.
Where to find it
- Status bar (bottom left): shows your current exp. Click it to open the garden.
- Explorer sidebar → Pixel Garden: your garden. The newest land is at the top; scroll down to see older rows.
What counts as typing
- Each keystroke that inserts text counts as 1 character.
- Paste and autocomplete count as 1 character, not the full length.
- Deleting, undo, and redo don't count.
