About this game
Petunia's Purgatory is an idle farming game that lives at the bottom of your screen. Unlike other Idler games, your desktop becomes part of the experience as the farm keeps growing, waiting, and quietly getting worse.
Grow unusual crops, care for your farm, and make offerings to something lurking in the barn.
Keep Petunia sane as her reality begins to slip... before her hallucinations spill onto your screen.
Tend the Farm. Feed the Elder God.
Your landlord is ancient, voracious, and lives twenty feet from your front door. Keep it fed or find out what happens when you don't.
Plant dozens of twisted, unsettling crops, each stranger than the last, each craved by something older than memory. Deliver them to the Eldritch beast that calls your barn home.
Summon cute but creepy helpers to till, harvest, and haul. Unlock and upgrade unique helpers with special abilities to improve speed, efficiency, and the way your cursed farm operates.
Attract mutated animals to your farm. Slaughter them for blood, a vital resource that keeps the harvest cycle turning.
Cook and craft raw produce into prepared offerings. A feast worthy of an Elder God takes time, care, and a strong stomach.
Hold It Together, Handling cursed crops is rough on a person's mind. Petunia is tougher than she looks, but she has limits.
Plant flowers and decorate your farm to maintain Petunia's sanity. Beauty is the only thing standing between her and a full breakdown.
The Elder God plays games. Let your sanity slip too far, and the hallucinations will begin... and they will not be friendly.
When sanity falls too low, the farm becomes harder to ignore as hallucinations interrupt your screen and disrupt the quiet routine. Restore calm with flowers and decorations before Petunia fully loses control.
Balance is survival. Push the harvest too hard and Petunia breaks. Neglect it and something far worse
happens.
It Lives on Your Desktop
Petunia's Purgatory doesn't demand your full attention. It quietly waits at the bottom of your screen while you get on with your day. Check in when you want. The farm keeps going when you don't.
Desktop overlay idle gameplay: the game runs beneath your other windows, always there, never demanding.
Fully customizable display scale: scale it down when you need to focus, and expand it when you're ready to tend the harvest.
Idle-friendly design: progress happens in the background. The god is patient. It has been waiting a very long time.

Dev Diary: Concept vs. Pixel Art
We wanted to give you a peek inside the development process of how we created the characters in Petunia's Purgatory. For each character, we shared our ideas with our concept artist Emmy, and she took our ideas and turned them into a digital sketch of each character. Then, our pixel artist Alex took each sketch and used it to create a pixel art version of the character and animated each character. Here is what each of the characters looked like as a concept and the final pixel art!
