You put a lot of efforts into building a calm and relaxing ambience, and it really shows :) I understand it's more about the experience than the gameplay, though I feel like it would've been even better if you added something to give feedback for every part of the loop, maybe magic sparkles, or some ripples, stuff to give it a bit of wow factor and make it even more immersive. Regardless, I'm a bit more relaxed now, so your game definitely hits the mark :D

I never really had to review a game like this, where there is no losing or main goal. I don't know what else to say. The game was supposed to create a soothing atmosphere, and it did.

Good work!

simple and relaxing game. The goal of the game is to help you relax and it does that very well. Would've been cool if there was a proper ending however.

Wow not what I expected at all, really interesting take on the theme. I never would have thought about applying "less-is-more" to meditation/breathing exercises, but it works!

Great storytelling ! Gameplay is a little bit too simple for me, but it was not your main goal. I liked the experience. Excellent for a first game.

I don't really get how this fits the theme... The music was pretty calming, but I was kind of bored, and couldn't bring myself to play through the whole thing.

I understand that, the game is not for everyone, as it is more of an anxiety exercise explained through a game. The way it fits the theme is that less anxiety is better (less is more), both for you personally as the in game character. Thanks for playing! :)
