🎨 Bloom & Hue

A cozy color-trading tycoon for Meta Horizon Worlds.

In a sun-washed valley where color grows wild like a crop, you inherit a run-down pigmentry from your great-aunt, the master colorist Madame Ochre — and build it into the valley's great bazaar. Harvest raw pigment from the Wildbloom hills, mix every hue on a living color wheel, and paint the faded town of Dapplewick back to life. 🌸

"Color is a crop, dear. Tend it, and the valley sings."


✨ One idea, one variable

The best management games rest on a single elegant system. This one rests on color — and that one variable is your currency, your production, your demand, your land, and your upkeep, all at once:

Color is your… In play
💰 Currency Earn, bank, and spend color as droplets. A rare clean hue is wealth.
🌀 Production Blend three source pigments on the Wheel into every hue. Cleaner mixes sell higher.
🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Demand Every customer arrives pale, craving one exact swatch. Match it for the payout.
🏞️ Land Each terrace has a Vibrancy. Paint it to raise it — vivid land grows pigment and draws rarer customers.
🌙 Upkeep Color slowly settles to pale. A cozy daily reason to return, never a threat.

The one number you watch is Valley Vibrancy 0 → 100% — the score, the health bar, and the mood, all in a single figure.


🌈 How it grows — from gray to spectrum

Every session is a 30–60 second loop: Harvest → Mix → Serve → Bloom. Underneath it, the valley unfolds across five named stages:

  1. Gray ⬜ — Inherit a dull pigmentry. Harvest one pigment, serve one order, see your first color bloom.
  2. Primary 🔴 — All three source pigments unlock, the Bazaar opens, and your first customer moves in.
  3. Mix 🟠 — Secondaries, tints and shades, the muddy risk, and premium ★★★ custom orders.
  4. Bloom 🟢 — Terraces, palette personalities, the Menagerie collection, and passive yields while you're away.
  5. Spectrum 🟣 — The valley goes fully vivid: the weekly co-op Spectrum Festival, leaderboards, and prestige.

The art and the gameplay are the same idea. Calm on the surface, deep underneath — and unmistakably its own. 🎨
