Harvest Level The more you harvest the higher your Harvest Level will get. The higher your Harvest Level, the faster you will harvest all items. Fitness Level The more you walk the higher your fitness level will get.  The higher your fitness level, the more you can carry. Reading Level You can Read by pressing "R".  Reading will increase your Reading Level.  The higher your Reading Level, the faster you can Craft Items.  Reading also provides small hints as to what to do. Shed You have a Shed.  You can access it at any time and drop off all items you are carrying.  This will free up your carry capacity.  Left click the Shed to access it and drop off items. All crafted items are automatically added to the Shed. House and Crafting Benches You have a House.  You can create all Crafting Benches at your House.  Left Click your House to access it and create Crafting Benches.  Once you have created a Crafting Bench you can craft the items that bench will create by Left Clicking that Crafting Bench. Placing Items You can place all crops/decorations in your inventory by pressing "P" or by Left Clicking a free spot.  A black outline will be displayed when the mouse enters a free spot.  Choose an item from the Placing Menu and then choose where to place it.  Crops and Plants take time to grow. Wells To get water you must first craft a well.  There are currently 2 types of wells.  Stone and Brick.  They produce water, yet the brick well produces it much faster.  You need water for various recipes. Animals You can show animals love by Right Clicking them. If you love an animal it will drop special items over time.  There are also craft-able statues that allow you to have animals spawn near the statue once placed. Caves There are 2 caves in which you can explore and find Minerals, Stone, Coal and Crates.  Before you can enter a cave you must clear the rocks blocking its entrance.  There is a cave to the East (Right) and a Cave to the West (Left) Fast Travel You have the ability to Fast Travel.  You can always Fast Travel to your Cabin.  The caves can only be Fast Traveled to after you have cleared the entrance and entered the cave.  In the image above the East cave has been discovered, yet the West cave has not.  Simply press the "Escape" key to access the Fast Travel options. A Word from the Developer Hello there!  My name is Mark Mauer and I created this game.  It was 100% created by me.  I love to do this and will continue as it is a passion of mine.  I have recently found the greatest Independent Game Community in the World on Twitter.  Everyone there is so great and I love to see everything others share.  Take a moment to follow me on Twitter @JustWallGames. I hope you enjoy Arboretum as much as I have enjoyed creating it.  Please feel free to leave a comment or feedback below as I plan to continue adding cool things to the game if enough people enjoy it.  Until next time! Life is Short = Be Creative This game is dedicated to my Mother and Father Karen Mauer
