I love my meadow and I love seeing all the different notes people can leave. However, there are always some things that can be tweaked. Character limit is definitely up there. I keep getting stuck writing notes and running out of characters to write them in. Maybe you're able to write up to the whole page and that is your limit? (I keep seeing other's messages and they seem longer than I'm able to write up to, is this just a me problem?) Another change I'd like is a config file. Or an interface for the wrench at the bottom left where some settings can be. Some settings might include where meadows are allowed to grow: taskbar (which is a change I hope happens. I want to see the taskbar get a garden), windows, and apps that make their own windows. That last one might be too hard. Another update might be different types of notes, letters (like we already have), addressed letters where we choose who it goes to, and maybe some other variations. A change that needs to happen is the fact that some images and animations clash with others and create a cutoff. Maybe the backgrounds for all entities can be transparent to each other instead? Another change that'd be cool is for the bird that gets the note, would actually carry the note onto the screen rather than it just appearing. Maybe he's struggling and sweat is dropping from him? I don't know. Another thing, maybe we can save the letters? I'd love to save the letters I get so I can read them again.
I don't want to bog down this comment with all the ways it should change, so I'm going no further.... I just see ways it can improve beyond its release. I just see the potential it has because it is already really good. Now, this comment is just constructive criticism and to be taken as a suggestion, not a demand. I do love all that you've been doing with the desktop series and I can't wait to see what's next. Thanks for making this content!
P.S. Maybe some small trees, owls, deer, fish, water (pond), frogs, bugs, some land animals running across the taskbar, tracking the time on the pc so there's different shades of color, different animals at different times of the day, ambient audio, more interaction with the animals (or just birds), more flowers? Lot's to think about.
