Choose the work that matters this week. Every task you finish becomes something beautiful you can keep.
The homestead preview supports optional pointer controls. Use the material toolbar to choose blocks, drag the scene to rotate it, and select reset to restore the original build.
The limit is deliberate. Four priorities keep the week clear, while every finished promise becomes a material you can build with.
Commit to no more than four things worth finishing.
Fresh work earns more. A small reward makes the moment visible.
Spend coins on blocks, trees, paths and warm little details.
No fixed upgrade path. Your homestead follows your imagination.
Explore new building materials and outdoor decorations, from paths and fences to plants and furniture. Give your Homestead more of your own character.
A new Achievements page celebrates your focus, task progress and building with illustrated badges. These permanent cosmetic milestones add no extra currency or item rewards.
Save shop favourites and find them again with favourites-only browsing. Combine them with search, categories and a filter for items you can afford.
Browse more compact cards with improved thumbnails and previews. Steadier saving feedback and less intrusive buy and sell tooltips keep shopping comfortable.
New saves start with a garden clearing, a path, a bench and flowers, plus materials to keep building. Your existing Homestead stays just as you made it.
Clearer Focus capacity indicators help you plan your week. Safer task splitting keeps your draft if saving fails, while improved task and project forms make small edits easier.
Build a cottage, a garden or a strange little tower. The same blocks tell a different story in every pair of hands.
THE GARDENER
THE COTTAGE KEEPER
THE WANDERER
Unfinished tasks lose freshness, not your history. A little clutter may gather, then clears as you return and finish again. No streaks broken. No guilt screen.
A calm focus tool should not turn your private plans into someone else’s data. The Focus Homestead app works locally. Website visits are measured separately, and task or Homestead data never enters those measurements.
Focus Homestead is available now on itch.io with a free demo, called the Free Alpha Snapshot, and a $4.99 paid edition. The Paid Alpha is now on version 0.2.0, with new building content, achievements and shop improvements. The Free Demo stays on the complete 0.1.1 experience. Both editions offer a Windows portable executable or installer.
The public alpha supports 64-bit Windows 10 and 11. Choose the portable executable to run without installing, or use the installer for setup and automatic WebView2 installation when that runtime is missing.
Choose your edition and download type, then select the file downloaded from itch.io. Paid Alpha 0.2.0 and Free Demo 0.1.1 have different checksums. Your browser calculates its SHA-256 hash on this device and does not upload the file.

Open PowerShell beside the downloaded file and run:
Get-FileHash -Algorithm SHA256 ".\Focus Homestead_0.2.0_x64-setup.exe"Confirm that the result exactly matches the SHA-256 value shown above.
Both. It is a local-first desktop focus tool built around a cozy game loop: complete weekly focus tasks, earn coins, and use them to build and decorate a voxel homestead.
Paid Alpha 0.2.0 and Free Demo 0.1.1 support 64-bit Windows 10 and 11 with keyboard and mouse. Both the Free Demo and Paid Alpha are offered as a portable executable or installer. macOS, Linux, 32-bit Windows and ARM Windows are not supported in this alpha.
The complete, unrestricted 0.1.1 alpha has no project, task, catalog, Homestead or time limits, and it remains free indefinitely. It is frozen at version 0.1.1 rather than receiving future content automatically. If itch.io labels it as a demo, it is still the full 0.1.1 alpha, not a restricted trial.
Yes. Moving to paid should work like installing an update and preserve your projects, tasks, rewards, inventory, settings and Homestead. Back up before changing builds. Opening a save created by a newer paid release in the older frozen snapshot is unsupported.
No account is required. Projects, tasks, Focus state, rewards, inventory and Homestead placements are stored locally on your computer in SQLite. The app has no advertising, analytics, telemetry or cloud sync.
Focus tasks age over time. Older unfinished tasks can add visual clutter to the homestead. Completing the task, or splitting it during weekly rollover, clears that clutter.
Yes. Blocks can be placed, stacked, filled across an area and removed so the build can evolve as often as you want.
Not in the alpha. Optional sync and mobile companion planning are later roadmap ideas, not promised features or dates.
The complete 0.1.1 alpha remains free as the Free Alpha Snapshot. The Paid Alpha costs a $4.99 minimum and now includes the new content and features in 0.2.0, plus future paid itch updates. It does not currently promise a Steam key or Steam ownership.
Paying $4.99 or more gives you ownership of the itch.io project and a private download link. New paid builds uploaded to that project appear on your purchase page and in your itch.io library if you link the purchase to an account. An account is helpful, but not required to buy or receive updates.
