• iGrow Game is 10 years old! - 28 August 2024

  Hi All, It has been awhile, I know. Unbelievably it's been 10 years after the initial launch of this game and years away from this project consuming my life. I always hoped I would one day be able to pick iGrow Game up again and work on it. However that never happened and now it isn't possible. I don't think I still have all of the source for the game and the engine is entirely gone from the web so I can't even download the engine any more. It has come to my attention that the game might be having issues with new versions of operating systems. I can't confirm this as I'm yet to test myself but I do believe the game was launched on windows 10 so it could be other reasons causing this. However I recommend changing the compatibility settings of the .exe to something like windows 7 to be sure. I will try and help anyone experiencing these issues if you will work with me to try and get to th…

• Super Sale (83% off) + Suggest a strain! - 18 August 2017

  It's a super sale! For 3 days only iGrow Game will be 83% off! Though first off let me apologize for the lack of updates over the past few months. I worked pretty heavily on iGrow Game with a load of updates and pretty much burned myself out, being a game I work on in my free time single handedly. Which being a web developer in my full time job means changing my coding language and work flow every night to work on iGrow Game which is no easy task. That being said, i monitor the game and part of the reason I stopped development was that the reports of bugs remaining in the game were no longer common or even that many, especially not game breaking. Like any game, there could always be more, but there is hours of gameplay already in the game and for the price tag I personally think its worth the money. So I decided to spend my time on my other main project that desperately needed some atte…

• HAPPY 420! - 20 April 2017

  Well it's been almost a year since I launched iGrow Game on steam and before that it had been released on itch.io for about a year and a half. Not only is 420 the main holiday in the cannabis community, it also seems to be a milestone in the life of iGrow Game. It all started one 420... Well ok not quite! I'm not sure how it all started any more, it became just one of many projects at one point. I did abandon the game entirely at one point too when I came to actually coding the plant growing algorithm. Though after the 3rd total rewrite and 1000's of line's of code later. I managed to make something that appeared to work... Though actually was instead, very very broken. I worked myself thin and completely despised iGrow Game by this point but released it on itch.io anyway without properly testing anything. The game wasn't even playable until I got close to the point of releasing it eith…

• 6 New 420 Suggested Strains and Fixes - 15 April 2017

  So I got started with some of the suggested strains and these are the ones I've added first: Frisian Duck Blue Cookies Pineapple Express Chem Dawg Jamaican Pearl Black Domina Also I released another bug fix update yesterday fixing a few things and adding the ability to scroll through menu's with the mouse wheel. I've also tried something that might protect save data from being corrupted if the game is closed while it's saving, hopefully it works. I will try and add a few more of the suggested strains soon. Happy Growing! -iDev

• The Great 420 Sale + Suggest A Strain! - 6 April 2017

  First off let me apologize for my inactivity with iGrow Game updates for the past month or so. I've not been away on purpose, it started with getting ill and needed a break from working on the game. Keep in mind that not only am I a single indie developer but I also do this along side a full time job. On top of that I also have other side projects that desperately needed some attention. That being said a certain special date in the cannabis community is coming up in the next few weeks! 4/20/2017 !!! I wanted to be able to get as many people involved as possible on 420! No better way to do that then to grow your own cannabis... Virtually! So to celebrate and get people involved this 420, starting on the 7th running through till the 21st, iGrow Game will be on a 75% off special. I also wanted to add something to the game for the first 420 iGrow Game has seen on steam. So I decided adding…

• v1.32 Room Control - 30 January 2017

  So after a fair few bug fixes I felt it was time to focus some time on a feature. I had a bright idea so I had to test it out. It turned out to be a really good idea. One thing a few people have mentioned was the struggle in running around maintaining your plants. So I came up with an idea I've decided to call room control. Room control gives you the ability to maintain your room through a fixed top down camera view. Allowing you to click the points in the room making the whole process of growing a lot quicker. It brings a whole new way to play the game and I have no dout this is one feature many players will be using most from now on. There is a few bugs currently that I know of which I will fix in the coming week. I wanted to get this in your hands now so I've worked hard to get it finished. If you find any bugs don't forget to report them in case I don't know about them. Let me know…

• v1.3 You'll need ventilation if you don't want a raid - 22 January 2017

  It's a big feature I've been working on for awhile. Luckily, it's finally finished! Ever since adding the "Needs" mechanics in the game I had this idea in mind and had started implementing it. Personally, I never liked the "Needs" mechanics. Actually that's why I made it an option. The ventilation mechanic isn't an option, it's now part of the game as I feel it add's to the realism. You can't let air be stale in your grow rooms, so to counter act this you will need to have a ventilation system. If you don't have one you will be raided as soon as you start growing. Not only that, you will also need to keep replacing your filters. Once you hit level 30 you will unlock filters that will not need replacing but it does come at a price. Unfortunately I ran out of time and wasn't able to do any bug fixes this update but I assure you that I will focus entirely on bug fixes in the next updates.…

• 90% off for 1 day only! Jan 19th - 18 January 2017

  If you've read some of the things i've said in the past on the forums. You will see me asking to give a good review if you enjoy the game. The game has suffered a rocky launch on steam due to problems which mostly have been fixed. Since then everything from lighting to graphics to user experiance has been improved. The game has far more playing time due to the large amount of strains available due to the cross breeding update. So now i really want to get more people playing the game. I always wanted a community to form around the game and that's starting to happen. So I wanted to give a chance for people to practically steal the game with a 90% off deal. I dout the game will ever be this low again. So if you've been thinking about it, don't think twice. The game is still being developed and I have something i've had in the works for awhile, which is nearly finished, coming soon. So also…

• v1.26 a helping hand - 30 December 2016

  I decided seeing as i've now focused on some polishing, bug fixes and content it would be a good time to do some sort of beginner tutorial. Nothing spectacular but should help new players grow, dry and sell their first plant. Not all that exciting but still necessary, at least it's in now though so I can focus on other things. More coming soon. Happy Growing! -iDev
