The animals were adorable, and it filled me with accomplishment keeping them watered!
I love conservation games! This one had a very chill vibe and I liked the animal selection. I wish there was a cute little cutscene like the one at the beginning when you finish all the goals, but that's not a huge dealbreaker for me.
Didn't expect the mech to wake up like a person :) but nice and relaxing game. As it happens in "contagion" games you could add a mechaninc with the green stuff expanding if not properly cleaned up, but it wuold have made for a much more pressing game cycle. I think it's better this way, but could be an alternative game mode. Great and original entry overall
From the intro cutscene to purifying the creatures, collecting samples. It was very satisfying. I loved how different regions have different climate and habitats on it. I was facing some lag when watering the creatures and on some regions. But, Great work with the game.
Really well crafted game! From the cutscene to the gameplay you could tell you put a lot of care into it. It was relaxing to go around cleaning things up and petting the animals. Even if it's not necessary to complete the game, cleaning up some of the green trails left behind too was fun! The green trails that the infected animals leave behind was a great choice gameplay wise, I never got frustrated when I was looking for infected animals because I knew I just had to look for green on the ground. Had such a good time playing that I couldn't stop until I completed each area :) Great job!
Such a mood. Like a fever dream version of super mario sunshine. Really like the art style and how it all works together. Good game!
I love it! The little cutscene at the start made me feel invested to save this little world and its denizens. While the sounds were simple, they were very well implemented and really helped the world come alive. Didn't realize you could pet the animals you cured until I read Studio Lemi's comment and I had to hop back into the game just to pet a pig real quick lol Everything you have in there right now feels great. If you keep working on it, I could see this being a fantastic game.
I have to say, I had a lot of fun with this one, the cute aspect of being able to pet the animals you rescued, plus making something as mundane as cleaning, become so fun hahah it is really cool!
This game's aesthetic is excellent, and the water mechanic is really nice. The different biomes having unique sounds and visuals helped a lot, too. I'm also really impressed you managed to fit every secondary theme in.
