Another game that conveys a lot of meaning, while there is no meaning in the game itself. It's hard to call it gameplay.
Walking, which is here, does not allow you to enjoy the game, but on the contrary irritates with its slowness. I also noticed a lot of crooked animations. It would be better to make the game in the form of a visual novel, rather than these flower picking simulators.

Очередная игра передающая много смысла при этом смысла в самой игре нет. Это сложно назвать геймплеем.
Ходьба которая тут есть не позволяет наслаждаться игрой, а наоборот раздражает своей медлительностью. Так же заметил много кривых анимаций. Лучше бы сделали игру в виде визуальной новеллы, а не эти вот симуляторы сбора цветов.

Like a guided meditation. Leave some inspiration at the end <3

Okay indie game. Narration was good, but the walking sim was a little too slow for my liking. Very short game

That was very weird. The story may be good, but it being a video game is pointless. Even more, the only actual mechanic of progressing the dialogue is frustrating because of how slowly our character moves.

Gaming's strength is interactivity so when an experience is almost totally devoid of interactivity I wonder what was the purpose of even making it a game. Sunlight is like this, it's visually and auditorily gorgeous, but the "game" can be completed by standing entirely still while dialogue plays, and then picking up a flower to progress the dialogue. This dialogue was a poetic monologue that I found to be pretentious and dull. This could have been an interesting short film for some, but as a game it feels pointless.

What... is this? It's visually nice, it's sonically overwhelming with all the different voices, making it really hard to hear what is being said. If you got half an hour to kill, go for it, but this certainly isn't for everyone. Maybe watch it on YouTube instead.
