In Bloom: Prologue

played through the whole prologue, this is my first review of a player made game I found through reddit. I would like to thank the developer for posting this game for free so I could try it. My initial thoughts, this game is definitely in early development and from personal experience from trying to develop a game myself its no easy feat to actually get this far and create something that has a beginning and end, here is a list of things I liked and of things that could use improvement. Things I liked: 1. The game theme is great, I like post-apocalyptic worlds (like the fallout universe) 2. I thought the lighting of the game was great it created a feeling of isolation and especially in the sewer system I felt a sense of horror and anticipation. 3. The flow of your map design was well thought out it gave a sense of exploration, but also looped back around to keep you on track with the main objective. Improvements: 1. The enemies could use some better movement design, they felt too robotic and I lost a little sense of the horror after maybe the 3rd enemy also maybe a little enemy variety or even add a small boss at the end. 2. while playing the game I had a few bugs to where the audio would tune out and it would randomly come back. 3. Some houses were too dark in the city and I couldn't see what I was doing when I walked inside them or it was too hard to tell which houses you could walk into without walking completely up to the doors. Main take away: This is a great little prologue that sets up a theme/story to the game. I recommend people try and create games for themselves so they can understand just how impressive this actually is. keep working hard on this and I hope I can come back and play this again in the future after you've added more to the game.

I had the pleasure of streaming this game with some of the developers present in the chat. I thought the gameplay was fun and had some original elements in place. I gave a few minor tips for feedback and the developers listened. I'd like to see where else this game might go.

In Bloom, doğanın ele geçirdiği bir dünyada tek başınıza uyandığınız bir hayatta kalma-korku oyunudur. Radyodaki gizemli bir sesin yönlendirmesiyle, bulmacaları çözmeli, etrafınızdaki tehlikelerden kurtulmalı ve vahşi doğa sizi yutmadan önce Güvenli Sığınak'a ulaşmalısınız.

I have GTX 670 (2 GB), and I was getting 15-25 FPS. It usually dropped when there were many cars around. In sewers, for example, FPS was higher. And for some reason cars were purple, I think same reason FPS dropped. But I loved the game, I wish for full optimized release with graphics settings.

Very good prologue! I wish they made it a full game

Yerli oyunda ingilis dili ilə yanaşı Azərbaycan dili olsa yaxşı olardı. Başlanğıc üçün pis deyil.

In Bloom: Prologue is a short but deeply emotional experience. Its art style, music, and atmosphere beautifully convey themes of growth and healing without relying on words. The calm exploration and slow pacing invite reflection. A well-crafted prologue that leaves you wanting more 🚬

[h1]Clean up a newly Fallen Village in this Color-Soaked Dystopian World, a New Upcoming FPS Famer Horror Game[/h1] A short little indie demo/prologue that was actually AMAZING to play start to finish! This horror game about being a farmer in a world overgrown and taken by plants could very easily go into the comedy horror space if it wanted to. I know they mentioned inspiration from The Last of Us and Amnesia, but I couldn't help but also see a lot similarities from Bioshock's vintage textures and moody lighting, and also We happy few's colorful saturated pallet and post processing. This was a lot of fun and a joy to go through even with this little slice of the game. I would love to see some patches for bugs and improvements before the full game releases, as I think some people will have higher expectations going in. However, aside from that I think this was a very unique game with a lot of fun environments and ideas that could be fleshed out into something huge. I definitely have the full game on my radar and will be wishlisting when a steam page/listing for it goes public. For 7 weeks of dev time from new game developer students this is VERY impressive, job well done. Cheers guys and here is to a successful launch for the full game
