An empty field...
No longer!
A Field of Flowers is a casual simulation game where you take control of the sun and use it to grow… A Field of Flowers.
how do i plant the seed thing?
Almost lost me at the start, having not scrolled to the bottom it wasn't clear what the game was about so my first instinct was to try the keyboard, which checked out and panned the camera, then I tried clicking around the screen, no luck >_> hmm, scroll, scroll, nothing to click on the map...odd. What was I missing... I had no idea for a long moment and considered moving on, that maybe it was just was the whole game, some dirt and Sun... the sun. I tried clicking on the sun, then try dragging it and that was a fun moment to discover it naturally. Not sure if is meant to be a bit vague and found like that, if so, that's a fun idea for some but not most (many are too impatient to not be directly clearly on where to go). Fortunately I was patient and curious enough from the nice cover art to proceed, find it and start the main game loop which is really good! Very meditative which is nice but could use some more music, I was already sleepy when I started but it almost put me to bed after a bit the track. A cascading effect of flowers/effects/seeds any some sort of chaining/escalating progression would be great or adding mixing elements like water, to give a little more. It does feel like it could just use one more thing mechanically but not sure what. The look is charming and the growing animations are well done. A mode to just paint, undo, reset without refreshing would be nice so players can paint better grass motifs then mine: https://imgur.com/a/o7NHGtQ .
Love the idea of this, so calming and meditative, creative concept!
I thought the game just grew a field, but then I saw the icon for it and realized I must be missing something. I think I'd have the seeds appear much faster. I closed out the game after making a bit of grass and thinking that's all that was going to happen.
It was kinda fun planting the flowers for a while and seeing what would come up.
Very peaceful
It's simple, but I like it.
