Welcome to share your gaming experience and suggestions in the Steam Community forum and discussion groups. About the Game Time's Garden Walk through your life again, as your 7-year-old self. What you are about to see may not be the past you remember. This is a narrative-focused adventure puzzle game. You will explore a world built from memories, observe your surroundings, solve intricate mechanisms, collect memory fragments, and piece together your whole life step by step. Each chapter is a critical stage of life — recreated, distorted, and even reunderstood. You are not recalling the past; you are facing the truth. Key Features A Life Reconstructed From the perspective of a 7-year-old child, re-experience three crucial chapters of life. What you understand may not be the whole story; what you see may not be the truth. Memory-Driven Puzzles Scenes and mechanisms are born from memories themselves. As you collect clues and solve puzzles, new paths and the truth will gradually unfold. Environmental Storytelling The story is hidden in the structure, details, and interactions, waiting for you to piece it together with your own hands. A World Where Machinery and Memory Intertwine Hand-drawn mechanical spaces blend rationality and emotion, building a symbolic world about creation, control, and loss. Chapter Plan We plan to launch three main chapters in the full version: Forest of Machinery — The Beginning of Creation Tower of Shadows — The Cost of Capital Lake of Tears — Loss and Reflection Early Access Content The current version includes: Full playable chapter "Forest of Machinery" Core puzzle mechanics and basic gameplay loop Initial narrative unfolding of the protagonist's past Save system and basic achievement system We plan to continuously expand new chapters, puzzle mechanics, and story content in subsequent updates.

Time Garden: Our Weekly Tea About Us We are three people who have spent their entire lives making games. Jas, Game Designer. Thirteen, Artist. Jerry, Programmer. Together, we have walked more than eighty years in the games industry. In 2024, we all left our previous positions. Not because we had nowhere else to go, but because we reached a point where we needed to stop and ask ourselves: do we keep making what others want, or do we finally make what we want? We have no office. We signed no contracts. Once a week, at a set time, in the same teahouse, the three of us sit down together over tea. We talk about the past week’s progress and the next stage’s plan. Since the autumn of 2024, this has happened without fail, rain or shine. Why Now We have known each other for years. We know each other’s tempers, strengths, and flaws too well. Jas knows Thirteen’s art needs time to settle. Thirteen knows Jerry’s technical solutions always leave room to breathe. Jerry knows that beneath Jas’s gentle design documents lies a quiet stubbornness. Because we understand one another, we do not need paperwork. When we say we will do something, it gets done. We decided our first game would be a narrative adventure. This was not the result of market analysis. It was the natural overlap of three people sitting down and speaking honestly about what each of us wanted to create. Working from Home, Weekly Tea, and AI Our workflow is simple: we each work from our own homes, and we meet for our weekly tea session. We are short on hands. Three people building a full narrative adventure was, in the past, nearly impossible. But today, AI tools allow us to handle foundational work far more efficiently—Jerry uses AI to assist with procedural generation and code review; Thirteen uses it for rapid iteration of concept sketches; Jas uses it to help organize narrative branches and text logic. AI does not replace us. It saves us from repetitive labor, freeing our time for the work that genuinely requires a human touch: Jas’s story architecture, Thirteen’s hand-painted textures, and Jerry’s core systems. Our tea sessions rarely exceed three hours. Progress is reported, problems are solved, and no time is wasted on empty talk. If one of us is having a slow week, we say so, and the others adjust.
