A Day - to bring them happiness

This time-based puzzle game reminds me of the [i] GroundHog Day [/i] movie, but it's happening to multiple characters - it's similar to a game like Pocket Watch, but slightly more complicated. Let me explain how the gameplay works because it's a little confusing. You can play as different characters during the same day, and when you change the character, the last playthrough will play out automatically - unlocking new events based on the current time. Reversing time does not reset your progress as long as you not playing the same character for adjustments, you can keep going unless you deliberately wait until around 7 AM (as far as I can tell). For example, if you pick up an item with a bird and drop it on the street, another character can pick up that item. Now the game has a leaderboard, which is a bit excessive in my opinion, but even if you not going to compete for the high-score, I think it has some really fun secrets and enjoyable achievements to hunt. It only took me about 15 minutes to figure out the rules, but I still think it would be nice to have an optional tutorial, even just a text box to explain how much time you have in a day - I assumed that reversing time would clear my progress, instead of combining it with other characters (it's a relatively unique concept). The puzzle logic was mostly good with a few small consistency issues. I completed half of the tasks in 1 hour, so considering that everything is optional, I would say it has one extra hour of replay value, or more if you want to optimize your score. Aside from a few small visual issues like unclear platforms, the game has an enjoyable ambiance and decent art. More importantly, the secrets are very creative, and it takes some fun planning to get them. [i] I love games that allow you to replay the same day to solve puzzles because it creates some unique scenarios, I think I played about 6 in total, it's a relatively rare concept, and I like that this developer had a unique approach with individual characters on top of it. [/i] [h1] Pros: [/h1] + creative gameplay (combining your previous runs into one day) + multiple characters with different mechanics + some smart and occasionally funny puzzles + decent achievement support [h1] FeedbacK: [/h1] [u] Hard to see platforms [/u] - the only negative thing I can say is that I can't tell what I can jump to, maybe it was intentional, but I find that it just wastes time when I already know where I am going. Probably could use an optional tutorial as well. [b] Overall Thoughts: 8/10 [/b] Very creative game that made me think outside the box. The time-based mechanics make sense once you get more practice, even if they are slightly confusing at first. I found some of the hidden tasks pretty hilarious, well worth a few $ that I paid for it. In my opinion, having a high-score system takes away from the experience, I would prefer to have a chill exploration game with nothing attached, but I still enjoyed it. Also, thank you for a fair price, it's perfect for 1-2 hours of enjoyable exploration. [code]Review By: http://store.steampowered.com/curator/31294838-Hidden-Gem-Discovery/ [/code]

The first 1-2 hours I thought the game was absolutely brilliant. Not paying attention to the description of the game on the store page that mentioned you're going for a high score, I kept thinking I was unravelling a puzzle that had a bunch of pieces that needed to be put together to have a grand finale of a story. There is an absolute gem of an idea for a game here but I think having simply made it high score driven instead of more narrative focused is a huge missed opportunity. I loved and hated this one. Loved the concept, hated the fact that after 3 hours I felt empty knowing that I was just going for points instead of something bigger.

A cool game built around an interesting mechanic. You play a day as one character, and it gets recorded. Then you play the same day as a different character, and the first one repeats what you did when you played as them. And so on. All of the characters have their little stories and goals. None of them can achieve it all without other's help. You get to organize their days so everyone is in the right place at the right time. The game never gets overwhelmingly complex with its mechanics, it's nice and relaxing.

游戏真的很不错 值得一玩, 就是没有办法存档,也没办法调节屏幕大小设置键位啥的 , 这都不碍事情, 就是 玩一半我规划好路线了 打一半了 你给我闪退报错我就很难受了 ,今天起码闪退了三次 哇 而且每次打开游戏又要从头开始真的难受 哇哇哇哇 心塞 但是游戏真的好玩23333 创意真的好 这就不剧透了 建议空闲的时候打打 挺舒服的

''Sonder: the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own''. That's how A Day makes me feel. The game is short and beautifully crafted, you play a different cast of characters each with their abilities, goals, and needs, over the course of a day the Goal of the game is slowly stitching the fate of every character in a way that in the end, they can help each other.

Extremely well made, and a very interesting concept. But in practice I just found the game a bit too repetitive to really find it enjoyable. Lots of trials and error, guessing, and repetition. If that type of gameplay doesn't bother you then by all means give the game a shot.

the entire environment must've been a very fun field day to make, I love it ...Penelope doesn't exist btw

Really cool game, I've played for one hour and half and I completed two runs, there are still a bunch of thing to find. Nice graphics and attention to details, pleasant music and sounds in general, totally worth the price.

Davvero un gran bel gioco. E' divertente esplorare tutta la mappa per scoprire ogni singolo segreto.
