About the Game

Welcome to Petaltone, the cozy gardening game where your plants sound just as pretty as they look!

Take on gardening jobs for clients and bring nature back to the City, or get lost personalizing the sounds of your own backyard Greenhouse. The choice is yours! Powered by a robust modular synthesizer, the possibilities for music-making are truly endless. So let your creativity run wild!

Game Features

  • Character Customization (Clothing, hairstyles, accessories, and more!)

  • A wide variety of Plants with unique sound waves to play with!

  • Intricate Mod patches to fine tune your garden's sound!

  • Multiple storylines to follow over the course of four seasons in Career Mode!

  • Laid-back, in-depth music making with complete creative freedom in Greenhouse Mode!

  • Shareable Garden Codes that let you share your creations with the world!

Experience the story of Petaltone in Career Mode!

The local cityfolk need your help! Their beloved home is in grave need of good vibes. Grow a floral soundscape to fill each of your Client's venues with fitting ambience and satisfy their special Requests to really knock their socks off! The money you earn from Jobs can be used to buy new Mods for your Plants, Styles to Customize your Character, and Upgrades for your Greenhouse!

In Career Mode your musical Plants are powered by Volts, a green, renewable energy source that Plants generate as they grow! This Volt production can be multiplied by installing Mods, which, in addition to augmenting how your Plants sound, speed up the cultivation process.

Over the course of four Seasons, you'll watch as the city and its residents grow and change. Being part of a community means being there for each other, through those important Events in our lives. So pay close attention as you go about your work. You never know when such an Event might take place!

Relax and Experiment in Your Greenhouse!

Greenhouse Mode is the place for giving in to your creative impulses with no limits! No deadlines, no clients, no worries! Just kick back, and take in the sights and sounds of your garden. Greenhouse Upgrades earned in Career Mode grow the possibilities even further, allowing you to grow more Plants and make more complex music!

The Greenhouse offers you the opportunity to get real particular with the sound of your Plants. Whether it's the BPM, Chords, Scale, or Mixing, you control it all!

Greenhouse Garden Codes can be imported and exported with ease, allowing you to trade Greenhouses with your friends, or take inspiration from fellow players around the world! Show off your creativity and share in the magic of collaborative music making!
