Besides the couple of crashes and frame rate issues I ran into, it's a short and sweet little adventure with some beautiful set pieces. Gameplay isn't anything masterful, but it is satisfying dashing through the levels. Also, the species you play as kinda sound like Pikmin, so the game gets bonus points for that. 7/10

A calming, low-stakes adventure game.
The gameplay loop is really fun - manage flying critters with special abilities across a gorgeous yet hostile environment meaning to kill everyone one of your critters. Your creatures are very easy to kill. You'll have 10 of them one second and a sudden misstep in navigating might cut them to 4 or something. But they do get multiplied once you reach crystal like statues thus there's not much of a risk.
Personally I find the game gorgeous but the backdrops are a little rough looking, and some additional polish is needed but honestly the gameplay makes up for it.

This is an incredibly beautiful game. I used to play this a long time ago on an old account with my brother, and I have a lot of very fond memories of those days.
If you are looking for a calm yet challenging game with adorable graphics and great worldbuilding, then I cannot recommend this game enough.

Incredible 'game'. Too bad this developer doesn't have other titles.
One tiny glow creature, finds a friend, and at times split them apart with LS RS.

I am 32 years old.
My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old.
When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand I desperately needed to ensure I could continue providing.
Upon learning the severity of the self-inflicted damage, I became almost suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man, with no history of depression or anxiety. I had never experienced anger outbursts, nor was I the type to break down and cry, but I was in a tough situation that truly prevented me from seeing the light on the other side.
With nothing better to do, I looked for a game I could play WITH ONE HAND while recovering. Somehow, I stumbled upon this game and read some of the comments. I decided it was worth a try... I must admit I didn't beat the game, nor did I play as much as some of you. In fact, I may have played this game for only a day or two. That being said, after doing so, I had a new joy and hope for life. I managed to leave behind the pain and suffering that had been thrust upon me. I could experience the joy and happiness of other people. I relaxed for 5 ♥♥♥♥ minutes listening to this music, long enough to realize that I would be okay.
After realizing this, I turned off the game and went back to work. My hand hurt a lot, but I was motivated. I stopped feeling so sorry for myself and became the father I needed to be at that moment, not the weak boy I was behaving like.
Today, I am close friends with the mother of my children. We don't fight, argue, or say hurtful things to each other. We are parents and friends.
Now I have 3 children. My third child is, wait, ALSO 4 YEARS OLD. The woman I am with was going through a very similar situation at the time of my separation, and we just unexpectedly stumbled into each other's lives. We have been dating for a year and are very happy together.
Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today. This silly little game helped me realize that.
Thank you.
