│14:17 <troido> I just mistyped botany as boatany. It could make a fun game
│14:17 <troido> something idle like botany but you're on a boat instead
│14:17 <troido> and instead of watering you scoop the water out
│14:24 <cymen> maybe a new theme for #thebutton?
│14:24 <cymen> if you don't scoop you drown :)
│14:30 <cymen> troido: I feel like only preventing degradation would be very not fun
│14:30 <cymen> might be some kind of weird psychological game though :p
│14:31 <cymen> somebody should make extensions to that daily adventure
│14:39 <-- netscape_navigator (netscape_navigator@localhost) has quit (Quit: WeeChat 2.8)
│15:00 <gliggy> my plant just sprouted!!!
│15:02 <gliggy> apparently it could be a venus flytrap, daffodil, or lithops
│15:03 <diff> 🎉
│15:03 <demoji> <diff> :party_popper:
│15:04 <m455> gliggy: hell yes
│15:28 <unknownunknowns> I got a lil seedling now
│15:28 <gliggy> cool
│15:28 <unknownunknowns> boatany could float your lil boat around and maybe bump into other boats and/or islands
│15:31 <unknownunknowns> and then you just see where your boat is that day and maybe do an interaction at the location
│15:34 <gliggy> your boat's status could include supplies, if there isn't enough supplies you would have to stop at an island or trade with another boat
│15:56 <@vilmibm> boatany++
