Field notes
The controls support walking, jumping, digging, ladder climbing and zooming from the garden view to the whole Earth. The interface tracks depth alongside soil and bucket status, and includes shop, album and daily-task controls. The page says progress is saved in the browser; players can export a save file to move it, while private browsing or clearing site data risks losing the automatic save.
