That. Was. LOVELY.

thank you for the calmest 15 minutes of my day <3

Also, that's some stunning lighting effects you've got going on there, really good work.

I very much enjoyed watching my plant grow. Wasn't quite sure why it needed wind, but happy to provide it. Lovely game :)

Had no idea what I was meant to be doing for a while but I really didn't mind. It was basically meditation.

The idea is okay, but for me it got a bit too slow.

At first I was a bit confused because I didn't read the instructions and were clicking on the weathers and being quite unsure what I was doing wrong. Then I realized it was the icons :face_palm:

Very calm sim!

I would have liked the non-active weathers to fade out a bit more (both audio and visually), to give a stronger sense of the mood. The scene listening device was on the camera it seemed so if I rotated to be from the wind perspective while having sunny it really sounded windy. The same, it would have been nice if everything grew substantially darker when it rained and brighter when sunny.

Finally, if there had been a bit more dramatic plant signal that it was fully grown would have been nice. Some large pedals to fold out and some auditory queue. :sunflower:

I really liked the style of the icons, the wind animation, and the haze in the scene.

Thank you @local-minimum, for some solid feedback! You touch upon a few things I've thought of myself, but also some of which I didn't.

And thanks to everybody of course! This is my first game jam, so I am very surprised with all the positive feedback.

Such a relaxing game! It made it into the fourth part of my let's-play-series: https://youtu.be/7aO0Tm7Tgyw

Thanks for playing @erkberg. Don't feel sorry for the ratings, I'm all with you ;) You had some good ideas which I might implement, like more flowers and butterflies!

It was a great experience. Indeed soothing but in a way I also found it stressful but that's on me, my inner competitor wanted to fill all 3 bars to the max and it's clearly not the goal. I really enjoyed seeing that flower grow and tending to its needs. I would have prefered for the weather effects to be less present when not active (I guess not enough time :wink:) to not have the sound of rain and wind at all times.

Great entry and well done on your game :thumbsup:
