Life Garden

"Life Garden" turns focus into visible growth. Start a Pomodoro-style session and your plant grows upward as the minutes pass; keep showing up and your garden fills with flowers that gradually bloom over time. It’s a calm companion—not a strict productivity tool—designed to make consistency feel warm and rewarding.

### Your daily loop (how you play)

1. **Start focusing (Pomodoro rhythm)**: start, pause, and end focus and break sessions whenever you need.

2. **See progress in real time**: growth is reflected directly in the garden through clear stage changes and blossoms.

3. **Daily check-ins & habits**: record your day, maintain streaks, and unlock more flower types.

4. **Review records & stats**: check your start date, total days, streaks, and dive into detailed entries.

5. **Stay in flow with Desktop Widget Mode**: keep the garden on your desktop so you don’t have to switch screens to feel progress.

### A deeper look at the systems

**1) Focus timer: simple controls, steady rhythm**

Pomodoro Garden keeps timer controls minimal so you can stay in flow: start, pause, resume, and end sessions cleanly, with the garden handling the “reward loop”.

**2) Garden growth: progress you can see**

Your main plant evolves through distinct stages. Instead of only numbers and charts, the garden itself becomes your progress bar—subtle, visual, and satisfying over weeks of use.

**3) Check-ins & flower collection: small rewards for consistency**

Daily check-ins unlock and display new flowers in your garden. Hover planted flowers to view their details and where they came from in your records.

**4) Records & calendar: understand your streaks**

Review key stats at a glance (start date, total days, streaks), then open details when you want a deeper look at your history.

**5) Desktop Widget Mode: a quiet companion**

Keep the garden on your desktop as a lightweight widget so you can study, write, or code without constantly switching windows—your progress stays present, not disruptive.

**6) Built-in study music player: button-driven mini player**

Inside the Records/Habits screens, a compact button-based player lets you play, switch tracks, and mute without leaving the game—designed for a clean, focused atmosphere.
