The Kind Camomille

У игры приятный визуальный стиль — и это единственное хорошее, что я могу о ней сказать. Техническая часть так себе даже для супербюджетного проекта, даже если не обращать внимание на спрайтовую траву. Игра ненавидит вашу клавиатуру, но даже на геймпаде не работает кнопка карты, при этом кнопка "помахать" не нужна буквально низачем, но она есть. Пара персонажей (включая бабушку) вешают игру при попытке взаимодействия, делая невозможным завершение. У пары персонажей глючит текст реплик. У одного персонажа загрузилась только шапка и текст. Ещё со мной пытался разговаривать подсолнух. Петы и достижения выдаются как будто рандомно, достижение за тысячу пробега я получил, ещё не взяв управление. После сохранения и загрузки сбрасывается прогресс некоторых "квестов"! Карта ужасная, дневника нет и приходится запоминать или записывать где что происходит, потому что геймплей — это просто сопоставление пар "персонаж-предмет", к которым у вас нет никакой эмоциональной привязки. Квестовый персонаж стоит на своём месте, говорит одну реплику и ждёт пока вы принесёте ему некий запрошенный предмет. Сам предмет находится где угодно и с ним нельзя взаимодействовать до того, как его запросят. Взамен на услугу вы можете получить ещё предметы. Это всё. Платформер без платформинга, паззл без головоломок, приключение без истории. Единственное, что от вас как игрока здесь требуется — терпение и блокнот с карандашом. Не ожидал, что напишу такое об этой игре, хотя ещё по демо всё было ясно. Теперь я пройду её просто из вредности, чтобы убедиться, что в финале бабушка скажет, какой я молодец и выдаст последнее достижение. Если однажды зависшие персонажи начнут отвечать, конечно. ДОПОЛНЕНО: Часть ошибок была исправлена, но незначительная. Игру теперь можно завершить, но бабушка ничего не скажет и не даст, не будет даже сценки. За двести рублей можно купить первую Ori, если хочется посмотреть на что-то прекрасное с геймплеем.

The game is lacking in many aspects. It is a beautiful game visually and audibly but the actual gameplay and UI needs work. The game doesn't really have a story because each character you interact with only says one or two lines so it doesn't feel immersive. The overall game is just a fetch quest with very little puzzle aspects, other than finding the items needed. Overall improvements that are needed to make the game more playable. -It needs a tutorial. Even though this game is an exploration game for most of it I was just super confused as to what I was doing and where I needed to go. This got quiet frustrating as well. -- Not being able to collect items before you get the quests is quiet bothersome. This could be an easy fix but having "found items" show up on the map so that they can be collected later when the quest is started and you don't have to run around trying to find them again. -It needs a quest log or tracker of some sort so you can see what each of the characters you talk to need. As well as to show what you have completed. I do like the touch that once the characters quest is done they go and visit grandma. -The map needs to be labelled and be able to zoom in on your location or various locations around the map. --Characters you have found should be labelled on the map. --Characters items you need to collect should be linked to the character in either the map or a quest log. --The mouse you play should be visible on the map as well (I noticed in areas that the yellow arrow that is meant to be me disappears) The glitches. -Saving and exiting out of the game removes items from your game. Such as: --The cat pet --The bug net --The completed staircase built by the raccoon character with the hard hat disappears and cant be rebuilt -Cant talk to the fortune teller character -Words the characters speak to my mouse are all bunched up so I cant read them --Font size is also really small for everyone but grandma -Cant read the monument after pressing E --The achievements not working for: ---Welcome to the Island ---Glider Acquired ---Go Fish ---Bug Catching ---Traveller ---Pigglets Friend ---Mr Grey Dogs Friend ---Fisherman --- Happy Birthday ---The End? -The map needs work, you can't see yourself in areas. Other things that I just in general found confusing. --The whale watching girl doesn't have an actual quest? Or is it just to go and talk to her father? -Cant get the cable car to work? Honestly not even sure if this is something that should be able to get working either. I backed this on Kickstarter and was super excited to see the game be released early but I don't think the game was ready for release yet as there are many problems that could have been stamped out before release. Overall I am rather disappointed in the game and give it a 4/10, the art and music are beautiful and I think the game will improve when the bugs are fixed which will hopefully improve my score. As the game currently is I would not recommend it to other people as it feels incomplete, however when the bugs get fixed, which hopefully will be soon I think I would recommenced it to people who want something beautiful to play. Update 1: After stating a new game I have managed to get the achievements: Welcome to the Island, Bug Catching, Pigglets Friend, Mr Greys Dogs Friend and Fisherman.

Petit jeu indé très mignon et relaxant. La DA est soigné et coloré. La bande colle parfaitement au rythme du jeu. Un seul dev pour faire tout ça, je tire mon chapeau. Et pour le prix, dommage de s'en priver!!

My play of the game here: https://youtu.be/52xCVMQqQKg I can't recommend this game it's too glitchy and honestly had me question my ability to progress from things just not working in the game. I could not talk to the fortune teller, I found the brothers they would not allow me to accept their quest/complete it, achievements would not pop even though the thing for them had been fulfilled, I honestly could not find the glider for the life of me/owl baby, there's a book that I'm unable to read at the top with the brother in question. The game doesn't really excel in anything each character has two lines of dialogue so I can't really get immersed in the world, the game is basically just continuous gopher quests. There's not much gameplay to be had and there's no real story either. I think the one positive was cosmetically changing my mouse to be honest. Definitely not worth the $6.99 even on sale in my opinion. Hopefully others had a better less glitchy experience.

Great and beautiful little game! If you are looking for an action game go your way. If you are looking to relax, have a good time Kind Camomile is perfect for you. It is visually superb, the music is very pleasant, it is almost therapeutic :) thank you for this little jewel which deserves to be known. PS: I play with my 3 year old son from time to time he loves it

Similar game to A short hide, if you liked that one you will enjoy this one as well. Right now it has some bugs that may prevent enjoying the full experience but the developer is fixing them as I write the review, I know he'll fix them all, so I do recommend buying the game now since it's on sale as well.

Relaxing game from a cool solo dev!

This game has been abandoned. I wouldn't recommend purchasing it, and I kind of wish I didn't either. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- I actually really liked the game the first time I played it. It's very peaceful and it was lovely to see my name in the Founders' Monument. But it is buggy as heck. For instance, when I came back after saving and quitting, I found that it had glitched out - meaning that quests that I had begun were no longer active and that even though I'd already got the butterfly net I didn't have it anymore and couldn't reacquire it. This means you'd have to play the game in one sitting without closing it (which is definitely achievable, I just didn't realise it was required). I don't think it is worth the price that it is listed for here unfortunately, and it pains me to say that as you can tell a lot of work and love went into this game. With a lot of bug fixes and improvements this game could have a lot of promise. Hope to see an update soon!
