Simple concept and beautiful little game. Great job :)
Very cool! Simple mechanic and balanced difficulty allows to play for a while and without much frustration :)
A very interesting concept, and overall relaxing experience. It had a very distinctive vibe of carefully maintained calm
The concept is genius and so far the most original take on the theme I've seen, the art is beautiful and the music is appropriately relaxing. Not gonna lie, I was having a very hard time at the start, I felt like I had no control over the wind at all. What eventually worked for me in the end was blowing the leaves into just one direction, aka left and blowing the leaves that come from the right as soon as they appear. The gameplay also uniquely and perfectly mimics the meditaion of an actual monk, it's tough at first, but only with patience, perserverance , focus and before all, discipline, one can hope to escape samsara.
I loved that you somehow managed to combine calm and momentum. Most of the games (including ours!) are very fast paced/chaotic, and this was so refereshing. Great job!
That was the intent, thanks :)
This was a fun idea. I ended up settling in to the strategy of always keeping the wind going in one direction and pulsing it as high as I could without breaking concentration. Felt like an unintended solution.
Definitely a more unique game that I've played! the art is amazing too, it took me a few failed attempts to really understand what each bar meant and what I was trying to accomplish.
I really enjoyed playing this, and it made me feel nice and calm. Loved the background art, and the music fit very well.
I really liked your take on the theme! I played this for quite a while, great job :)
Great original take on the theme. Loved the art and music. Good job!
Nice game idea, I like the art and those flowing particles a lot.
Very casual and calming, while easy since i ascend by blowing wind in only one direction, the diffiulty indeed goes up a little the closer we are to ascend.
The art was beautiful and I enjoyed the calming nature of it, that is until you panic because a leaf almost hits you lol.
