Update 1.21.0 is live! This one’s massive: a brand-new Fairy Event, the Garden Ascension system, NPC friendships, fresh seeds and pets, new shop items, and a bunch of fixes/QoL changes. Let’s dive in:
🧚 Fairy Event
- Fairies arrive every hour to enchant your garden, blessing fruits with the Glimmering Mutation.
- Submit glowing fruits to the Wishing Well to fulfill wishes and earn rewards.
- Specific fruits may be required, but any glimmering fruit contributes to Fountain Power.
- 5 Quest Tiers → higher tiers = stronger rewards. Resets daily (or with Fairy Points).
- Roaming Fairies can appear anywhere on the map — interact for bonus Fairy Points.
- Fairy Godmother Shop (spend Fairy Points):
- Glimmer Multi
- Event Duration
- Fairy Spawn Amount
- Roaming Fairy Spawns
- Unlock new seeds, pets, items, cosmetics, and more through the event!
🌱 Garden Ascension
- Earn 1T sheckles + meet fruit requirements → ascend!
- Ascending resets sheckles but grants 10 Garden Coins (spendable in the new seed shop tab).
- Ascension cooldown: once every 24 hours.
- Rewards include:
- Extra save slots
- Egg capacity upgrades
- Pet & plant inventory expansions
- New seeds
- And more
(This is a first step at balancing the economy — may get reworked depending on community feedback).
