this is really fun! love the style and concept a lot, the camera locked into one view did make it a bit hard to navigate but otherwise really enjoyed :)

Design Statement
The theme song instantly reminded us of enchanting gardens illuminated by shimmering fireflies, and we understood it as a journey into a magical, living sanctuary. A sense of peaceful surprise, curiosity, and nighttime beauty the sensation of entering a secret meadow at dusk where light itself feels alive was produced by the warm, fluttering melodies and soft ambient.
We concentrated on two key decisions in order to achieve this interpretation in our design.
Firstly, Light and Particle Mechanics. The main objective of the game was to gather and release dynamic fireflies. They serve as the main light source and tool for the player, revealing secret passageways, opening bioluminescent plants, and bringing warmth to dark areas.
Also, Atmospheric Visuals & Audio Response. We used calm environmental audio and gentle, painterly visual environments to go along with the track's peaceful vibe. Flowers blooming and firefly swarms blazing brighter as musical layers build up are examples of how the environment responds directly to the music and player progression.
