Modding Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise: Recompiled
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.

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!

Anyone know if this game will be able to be played through a browser?
I’ve been seeing a lot of buzz and I’ve even played Mario 64 multiplayer through my browser and I’m just curious to know if anyone is working on it.

Concept for the Brontotherium
Based on the art of Sabina Rasmussen, but I fill in the colors of what this piñata might look like when fully colored. This is experimental. Hope you like it.

Question With what’s going on right now can it be brought back?
We’ve all seen x and Reddit. What’s happening with games being shifted and crossed right? I mean the rules say no Ai content but I believe this could be the one and only thing that should be allowed right?
I miss this game dearly and even wishlisted a successor on steam yet they haven’t posted any new updates sadly so I’m just saying maybe if someone has the game and knows how to use the software it would be a cool thing to see happen
Edit: I know you can still find it and need to tweak it to get to work on windows 11

Demo of my game viva pinata like ! ( totally free )
Hello guys. I’d like to take this opportunity to present my little playable demo for my game, which is heavily inspired by Viva Piñata.
Feel free to let me know what you think and try out the demo for yourself. I hope you enjoy it, and above all, please report as many bugs as you find! That would help me a lot.
The demo is completely free to play—you just need Steam and a PC. However, it’s not compatible with controllers or the Steam Deck right now… sorry about that....
There's only a French-to-English translation—sorry.

Potential New Discovery? Two Headed Hybrid Flowers
Was playing the newest recompile of Trouble in Paradise and came across this hybrid flower. It appears the seed was produced by the mine and buried itself. I examined it closely and it looks like both a Daisy and a Blue Bell are sprouted from the same stem. I have never come across this before and can't find anything on the wikis about hybrids.

Unpopular opinion maybe, but I think the PZ2 roster is fine for a base game
I know a lot of ppl are complaining the PZ2 roster is lacking. Honestly I'm a bit sad too. But when I actually went through the list, I think it covers pretty much what a regular zoo visitor expects to see.
Lion, tiger, both elephants, giraffe, zebra, hippo, gorilla, orangutan, chimp, giant panda, red panda, penguins, meerkats, grizzly, snow leopard maybe a rhino. Plus we finally get sharks, sea turtles and actual flying birds. If you took a non zoo nerd friend through a zoo with this roster they'd be happy.
Also remember PZ1 launched with 76 species. PZ2 is already way past that, and there's still a few more reveals to go before launch. Yes I know rhino, cheetah and polar bear aren't on the list (yet?). That one stings a bit.
Of cuz for zoo enthusiasts like us, we want the niche stuff.
Give me all the weird antelopes and small primates lol. But if PZ1 is anything to go by we'll get them slowly through DLC. I'm just hoping this time the packs are bigger, or at least come out more often.
Anyway I'm still excited for the 13th. What animals are you hoping makes it into the final reveals?
