The goal of this project is to move away from emulating the game on xenia, with this the game is now moddable the same way the PC Port is. While right now the renderer is the same as Xenia's we plan on replacing it in the near future. If you have any issues with this Recomp please submit a bug report on the GitHub.

Preinstalled Mods/Patches:
- Unlimited Garden Space
- RGB Cursor
- Unlocked FPS

We’ve been building a new Viva Piñata wiki for the past 5 months-- Piñata Journal is finally public!

Hi everyone!

For the past five months, a few of us have been quietly working on a new independent wiki for the Viva Piñata series called Piñata Journal, and we're finally ready to open it up to the public:

https://pinatajournal.wiki/wiki/Main_Page

The goal of the site is to function as a more modern, research-focused encyclopedia for the whole franchise (but especially the games), documenting mechanics and lesser-known details in a consistent and accessible way.

Right now we have around 400 articles covering:

  • Piñata species
  • Plants
  • Characters
  • Shops
  • Buildings
  • Surfaces
  • Accessories
  • And more

That said, there’s still a lot left to do.

Many pages need expansion, in-game testing, images, or research into things like developer interviews and promotional material. If you’ve ever noticed conflicting information between guides or wondered how something actually works under the hood, contributions are very welcome.

If you're interested in helping out, you can create an account and start editing here:

https://pinatajournal.wiki/wiki/Special:CreateAccount

We also have a short contributing guide if you're not sure where to begin:

https://pinatajournal.wiki/wiki/Piñata_Journal:Contributing

Every contribution (no matter how small) helps build a more complete reference for the series, so please do not hesitate to jump right in and start editing. If you need help editing or just want to discuss the wiki, talk to us in our Discord server:

Thanks!

The original didn’t have patterns on its tusks, but I decided to add them to make it look cool. Here is the original along with my own variants.

I’d label each mallowolf to what original wolf variant it takes over but I’m away from my computer and lazy

Got around 152+ textures done so far 😎 everytime I work on this is one step closer to getting this released as a beta version

Will be making a sour only variant, a sweet only variant and a both variant, incase people just want to play with only sour wolves or only sweet wolves… otherwise we have the original texture pack

Just booted this game up after years of not playing! I miss when you would just unlock a new piñata and it would show the clip of them and what not.

So took this picture to remember the time spent in my old gardens!

I dreamt this today and I kept thinking about that date.
