This is, without a doubt, the coolest thing I've worked on. The team that built this was super fun to be a part of.

So excited that we announced driving in Undermine, our team has been hard at work and I can't wait to share more!

One option is to figure out what the smallest version of your game is that would prove to you whether the idea works out not.
Figure out how you could make it in one month, and just make that small slice of the game.
Once you have that, iterate on it till you have something you want to grow.
Two individual fronds of duckleaf, each with a short stalk coming out of the bottom.
Finally, I just wanted to share this picture of it, just to get a sense of what it really looks like since it's so small.
I really love tiny plants that can take up a big space. Kind of like the pikmin themselves!
A cooking platter with a bag of green dust, presumably made of duckweed.
Duckweed is consumed in some parts of Southeast Asia, and even cultivated as a vegetable in Israel. It's being explored as a potential food source for greater cultivation, due to it producing more protein per square meter than soybeans.
A frog poking out of the water, covered in green duckweed.
Duckweed tends to show up in very fertile conditions. It acts as food for waterfowl, hides the young of many aquatic species, and provide nice shade and cover for frogs.
A finger covered in tiny green flowers.
The smallest form of duckweed is Wolffia. Look how small it is!
Duckweed is a cute tiny plant that floats on the top of ponds. Sometimes they're called water lentils, or water lenses, given to their tiny shape. They don't have any obvious stem or leaves, they're basically just floating fronds.
A small pond with a larger flower in the center. A giant tree can be seen in the background. Upon the pond is duckweed, what appears like small green petals sitting on its surface surrounding the flower.
Since Pikmin 4 is coming out soon I'm talking about random plants that are seen in the series! Today's plant: Duckweed!
Ah! I think those are definitely horsetails, you can tell by the black rings around where the branches are coming from.
Get ready for them, at the start of the pandemic I did this for a month on facebook lol.
There is a rumour that the spacing of nodes in a horse tail is what inspired John Napier to discover logarithmics, however that story may be apocryphal as I couldn't find any primary sources on the matter.
I think these plants are just a cool little guy, and I'm glad to see them return in Pikmin 4!
A thin long stem with drips of water on it. Spiderwebs are hanging at the sides.
A cut open swamp horsetail, revealing a hollow center. Branches are coming off the side.
One species of horsetail, swamp horsetail, loves water so much it actually roots in water. I think it's really pretty, and it has a cool hollow center.
The top of a head of horsetail, which looks coated in lots of little dots, which are their spores.
These plants love wet environments, and reproduce solely through spores. Many species of horsetail have no branches, resulting in their iconic look. The kind we see in pikmin look like the ends of ones that are ready to release spores.
A picture of real horsetails, a thin long plant with bushy edges as it reaches the top resembling the tail of a horse.
Although they may not look like it, these guys are actually a type of fern, with roots that go back to over a hundred million years ago where they dominated Paleozoic forests.
They're named after their bushy ends!
A close-up picture of a playground, with the focus on a group of horsetails, thin long plants sticking out of the ground with a fuzzy top. The picture is from the game Pikmin 4.
