What makes a good cozy game

Three things to keep in mind, whichever idea you pick.

Small goals

One more flower, one more cat, one bigger boat. Always a next little thing.

No way to lose

Cozy games are about growing. Make mistakes cost time, not everything.

Soft feedback

Gentle sounds and little animations when something grows are the reward.
