What is an RPG if not a series of menus that lead to other menus? Every time I make a new menu I am thankful I'm using the #godotEngine, as it makes UI design so much easier than other engines and tools I've used in the past. #screenshotSaturday #indieDev #farmingGames #butNotAFarmingSim

The "Your Community" menu. It shows that the player has met 31% of the people in San Ambrosio, including Rodeo the fisherman, Tanner the car enthusiast, and Velthur the pharmacist, who is currently selected.

The description text reads: "Velthur is a mysterious man who occasionally mentions his life in the old country, but no one can seem to figure out where that is. Sometimes he says things that make it seem like he's a lot older than he looks..."

Below that an info box reads: "I promised to meet Velthur at the Haunted House at the County Fair to help him get his parasol back."

The "Your Farm" menu, depicting the player's field, which includes a ripe corn plant and a mushroom log, which is highlighted. The description reads "You can plant Mushroom Spores on this Fixture, giving you access to a constantly regrowing crop that never rots!"

The "Your Inventory" menu, currently showing combat items. Currently selected is the Stake, which has this description: Places a stake on the soil beneath you. Stakes can provide support to certain crops, making them much stronger and more weather-resistant than they otherwise would be.

A submenu is open to allow the player to sort their inventory by name, price, amount, or a custom sorting.

What a difference eight years can make... #screenshotSaturday #gameDev #indieDev #godotEngine #farmingGames #lessTextMeansMoreRoomForHashtagsBabey

A screenshot of Uprooted: Meal Replacement Game from 2018. It depicts the player, a farmer, preparing to attack a robot with several ripe fruits and vegetables on her field. The robot has a battery charging up on its field. The graphics resemble an old Game Boy Color game.

A similar screenshot of the game from today, depicting the same scenario, but now with 3D graphics and a different interface.

A farmer is only as good as the crops they grow! In Uprooted, there are dozens of different crops at your disposal, from fruits and vegetables to mushrooms, eggs, paddy crops, and bees! Each with their own stats and abilities. How will you farm? #screenshotSaturday #gameDev #godotEngine #indieDev

A screenshot of the game Uprooted: Meal Replacement Game. The player, a black farmer with pink hair, is thinking about what type of crop to place on a tile of soil on her field. An inventory menu is open showing the available crops. The selected crop is a Peanut, and several details about it are shown. It has a 3.5 star rating, grows in 13 turns, grows well in Spring and poorly in Autumn and Winter. It is immune to salty soil and weak to fire (which is inaccurate! note to self, fix that lmao). It has 3 abilities: soil boost, shell, and fire forged.

What is Uprooted all about, you ask? Well, it all starts with the CTO of a meal replacement beverage startup who won't take no for an answer, siccing his robots on your farm because you refused to sell out to him! Why does a drink company have a robot army? 🤷‍♂️ #screenshotSaturday #gameDev #indieDev

A screenshot from Uprooted: Meal Replacement Game depicting the player, a black woman with pink hair, standing in the center of her farm. Plants are uprooted, soil is destroyed, and a couch is on fire. Two robots look over the destruction.

A robot has approached the player and says "Oh hey you're that farmer I'm supposed to attack! Welp, guess you know what that means! Ha ha!"

What's your favorite part of county fairs? The fried food? The cell phone carriers handing out branded garbage? The stands selling shirts with cartoon characters dressed up as gangsters? Well you can experience all of that in Uprooted: Meal Replacement Game! #screenshotSaturday #gameDev #indieDev

A food stand for "fried tea" that emphasizes that "even the cup!" is fried.

A horse in a pen is painting with a paintbrush in his mouth. A crowd is watching him, and a child says "Mommy, look! The horse is painting! I want to be a horse when I grow up!"

A line of people are waiting in front of a tent labeled "MAGNIFICENT ROCK'S." A man says "Now, son, I know you weren't a fan of the sedimentary rocks I showed you last week, but once you see the metamorphic rocks they have on display here, "boring" will be the last word you use to describe them!"

In Uprooted, there will be many obstacles on your journey: such as a road blocked by a constant stream of delivery trucks! Looks like you'll need to head into the ItsWay warehouse to find out who's responsible! "You Want It? It's On ItsWay!™®²" #screenshotSaturday #gameDev #farmingGame #indieDev

A screenshot from the game Uprooted. The player is blocked by traffic; countless delivery trucks are driving in and out of a warehouse, fully obstructing the road. Behind her is a warehouse worker ordering from a food truck named "Grill you Dairy me?"

Inside the warehouse, the player observes boxes being dropped from the ceiling onto a conveyor belt.

A battle screen. The text at the bottom reads "The warehouse crew attacks!" On a 6x6 grid are two warehouse workers, a robotic arm, and several pallets.
