Jade Spring

⠀

I'm not the best at putting things into words but I LOVE this game. When I first approached it, I thought it would be a bit similar to how I feel about homesteading in the source material, Guild Wars 2- overwhelming and hard to approach. However! Upon playing the game, I feel the complete opposite! I love the way things are laid out visually and allow for adjusting and previewing. You can tell that all the assets are made with love and care and I think that really shows in how the game plays. Besides just game play, the music is absolutely wonderful and provides a nice background to listen to as well as being part of the things one has to solve is also very interesting! I'm absolutely honored to have gotten to play this game and be apart of it's development and I can't wait to see it grow.

This is literally the greatest thing to happen to the Guild Wars 2 Community since BlishHud. I seriously mean that. Thank you so much for investing your own time into making something we can use as a simulator of sorts. I can't wait to see the finished product and the updates a long the way. Love: Guild Wars 2 themed -Jade Bot Main Character -Animated Dialogues -Free Decorations -Beautiful music -Incredible design -The (I think custom) assets are super cool too! -PLACEABLE LIGHT RAYS?! -Cute Jade Bot noises -PLACEABLE BEES! Dislikes: Not so many decorations yet Locked Decorations Small Area to work with Not enough land Strafe Keys should be Q and E instead of Up and Down movement Movement should be C and V

Full disclosure, I helped work on this game! You can check the main menu credits tab for that info. That said, my honest review: I do genuinely love and enjoy Jade Spring. It's a fun stim toy that you can play around in for hours with no stress. Even with the currently limited decorations (I am writing this during beta) I still have had such a good time just vibing. Sometimes I clear the garden and zoom all the way in to speed around the little map for fun (pro tip, hold Shift to sprint. I used this a lot during testing!) I have a bias, of course, but I stand by how I feel. I'd even argue that you hardly need to know anything about GW2 to enjoy this fan game. The story doesn't hinge on your understanding of the lore, and anything that does actually reference GW2 happenings is more of an Easter egg for other fans. PROS: - you're a cute lil jadebot - cozy vibes - short story and then free reign forever - ability to share your save with others - jumping puzzles (toggle gravity for your jadebot) - ALL HANDMADE ASSETS, music included - clear, obvious love for the source material, Guild Wars 2 CONS: (written during beta, many things may change) - small text which can be hard to read - some monitors, like mine, might see more of the noise/light border around the edges of the gameplay area. It can be kind of distracting when looking at bright spots, like over the ocean towards the sun. - placeable bees but no cats, which is a guild wars crime

Rahatlayın, çömlek yapın ve küçük bir Guild Wars 2 dekorasyon ve çiftlik kurma hayranı oyunu olan Jade Spring'de inşa edin.

I adore this game, if you just want a short game with some really well made handmade assets and a love letter to guild wars 2, definitely poke around this. My only complaint is that there is no hotkeys for duplicating and general rotation for users more comfortable for building-style games like this (ctrl d, r+scroll, etc...)

Игра 'Jade Spring' – это глоток свежего воздуха в жанре стратегий. Она подкупает своей медитативной атмосферой и красивой, спокойной графикой. Сама концепция – строительство и развитие чайной плантации, – очень оригинальна и расслабляет. Игровой процесс неспешный, но затягивающий. Важно умело управлять ресурсами, правильно размещать строения, учитывая ландшафт и доступность воды. Элементы менеджмента довольно глубокие, но интуитивно понятны. Порадовало, что игра не наказывает за ошибки, а позволяет экспериментировать и находить оптимальные решения. Особое удовольствие доставляет наблюдение за тем, как растёт и развивается твоя плантация, как собирается урожай и производятся разные сорта чая. Легкий, ненавязчивый саундтрек идеально дополняет атмосферу умиротворения. Небольшим минусом могу назвать отсутствие динамичного развития событий. Игра больше подойдет тем, кто ищет спокойный и расслабляющий опыт, нежели хардкорный стратегический вызов. Однако, если вам нравятся игры вроде "Townscaper" или "Dorfromantik", то "Jade Spring" точно придется вам по вкусу. Рекомендую!

Great music, quite a variety of items/decorations, visuals look great both in day/night Great dialogue and overall game world aesthetic Editor options are extensive Would benefit from a secondary camera option, cursor locked in Overall definitely a recommend
