This is a short story in a sci-fi setting with a top-down view, telling the story of a nameless man lost in routine in the middle of a cold world and soulless machines. But what if it could be different?

Игра по-зимнему атмосферна. Игра Once In Flowerlake от инди-разработчика Михаила Незнамова — это небольшая, но невероятно атмосферная бродилка, повествующая о безымянном человеке, застрявшем в рутине посреди холодного мира и бездушных машин. Полуторочасовая история, наполненная ламповой (печной) теплотой, уютной атмосферой, сугробами, негустой растительностью и редкими зайчиками, индустриальными механизмами, изоляцией от мира и легкой антиутопией. Главные достоинства игры — это органичная и привлекательная графическая стилизация. Прекрасно подобраны цветовая гамма, спецэффекты, лоу-поли модели и шрифты. Всё это сопровождается очень качественным звуковым и эмбиентным музыкальным сопровождением, за счет чего вы буквально погружаетесь в нарративную историю сюжета. И именно сюжет становится третьим отличительным достоинством Once In Flowerlake. Стоит отметить, что в игре нет озвучки персонажей, всё общение происходит посредством текста, но фантазия сама дополнит вам историю в голове необходимыми голосами и тембрами. Из недочетов можно отметить отсутствие некоторых анимаций персонажа при взаимодействии с объектами, а также немного «рваный» темп игры. Если обойтись без спойлеров, то вы можете быть уверены, что увлекательно проведете свой вечер.
[h1]*Once in Flowerlake* - 4 8 15 16 23 42 [/h1] "Once in Flowerlake" hat mich sofort an die Station "Der Schwan" bei der Serie "Lost" erinnert. Ein alter Mann, gefangen in einer kalten Winterwelt hat nichts weiter zu tun, als immer und immer wieder mysteriöse Maschinen neu zu starten. Er weiß nicht warum, aber er denkt, dass davon Leben abhängen. Deshalb hinterfragt er seine Situation auch nicht, sondern kämpft sich Tag für Tag durch die Kälte, um seinem Auftrag nachzukommen. Dann ereignet sich eines Tages jedoch etwas, das sein ganzes Leben und seine Sicht auf die Dinge verändern wird. Für "Once in Flowerlake" braucht man einen eisernen Willen und Geduld. Den eisernen Willen, um sich jeden Tag aufs neue in das Schneegestöber hinauszuwagen, die Geduld, da man nur mühsam und langsam im tiefen Schnee vorwärts kommt. Den Ungeduldigen wird das Spiel nicht gefallen und den Action- und Rätselliebhabern auch nicht. Alle anderen werden sich eine dicke Decke umwickeln, sich eine heiße Tasse Tee machen und sich gedanklich in der täglichen Routine und der Einsamkeit verlieren. 👑 Powered by HoI 4 Deu Curators group in German / English 👑 [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/30388691/] Follow Main group [/url]// [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/40282064/]Follow Second group [/url]
Don't waste your time. Too many problems, and aggravations. IMO OK, this wasn't helping. I was angry at the game ( that's smart right?), so I was brief. I think I should explain if I'm going to review it. This is a little game, probably free, I don't recall. Anyway, what is obvious is the game is out of whack in it's brightness scale. The whole game looks bleached and is hard to see in some cases. The same is true at the end where I couldn't see where I was going because it was too dark! Aside from that the bots are overly active, making any sort of exploring difficult if not impossible. Prepare to die multiple times. If/when you do, you will just be sent back to the last save, which can get annoying after a half dozen or more times! C'mon guys, you say explore and then you shoot me when I move! I don't think they've worked on this game for years, so don't expect these problems to be rectified. I gather there are also bugs, but I don't think I had that issue, at least. What is sad is that this is a good little game! It's unique, and I enjoyed it, between rages..... :) If they'd fixed these problems I think it would have been a super little game. I liked it enough to get all the achievements, which was not easy! Anyway, if you have a good computer and like hiding from bots, give it a try. It's got bunnies....real ones :)
[h1] Genre [/h1] Ein kurzes Story Driven Adventure [h1] Story [/h1] Wir spielen einen Mann der in einem Abgetrennten Schnee Gebiet in einer Hütte lebt. Seine Aufgabe ist es Täglich 4 Maschinen am laufen zu halten. Dies hat er auch immer Brav getan bis eines Tages etwas ungewöhnliches passiert [h1] Gameplay [/h1] Wir laufen durch kleine Abschnitte und müssen immer eine bestimmte Aufgabe erfüllen. Die jeweilige Aufgabe kann man sich via Tastendruck (TAB Taste oder Y auf dem XBox Controller) anzeigen lassen und es erscheint ein Kreis unter unserem Charakter mit einem Pfeil der uns die Richtung zum Ziel weist. Das Spiel ist sehr simpel gehalten und Fokussiert sich natürlich auf die Story. Zudem ist es relativ kurz [h1] Achievements [/h1] Es gibt insgesamt 11 Erfolge. Die meisten sind Story basierend und nicht verpassbar. Allerdings muss man das Spiel 2 mal durchspielen (1 1/2 mal um genau zu sein) um alle Erfolge bekommen zu können, weil 4 Entscheidungs bedingt sind. Man muss einmal einen Schneemann bauen & alle 4 Maschinen wieder anstellen und beim Zweiten durchspielen dementsprechend halt beides nicht tun [h1] Pro/Contra [/h1] + Günstig (Im Sale für 0,39€) + Kurz + Story OK + Grafik ist ordentlich + Achievements + XBox 360 Controller Support [h1] Fazit [/h1] Ein ganz nettes, kurzes Story Driven Adventure mit einer etwas merkwürdigen Geschichte die irgendwie nicht ganz schlüssig ist weil das Spiel viel zu kurz ist als das man eine Große Story hätte bauen können aber nichts desto trotz ist es ordentlich für die Spiellänge. Wer gerne Story Driven Adventures spielt, kann sich dieses Spiel im Sale ruhig zulegen 👑 Powered by HoI 4 Deu Curators group in German / English 👑⠀⠀⠀[list][*][url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/30388691/] Follow Main group [/url][*][url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/40282064/] Follow Second group [/url][/list]
Півторагодинна історія, наповнена ламповою теплотою, затишною атмосферою, кучугурами, інколи густою рослинністю та рідкісними зайчиками, індустріальними механізмами, ізоляцією від світу та легкою антиутопією. Однак у цій грі вам все-таки доведеться «натискати кнопки» (у деяких місцях дуже активно), щоб дістатися фінальних титрів. П.С. Чудово підійде в колекцію для перфекціоністів. РЕКОМЕНДУЮ!!!
I loved the idea of this game going into it, and the story was good, but unfortunately the poor level design made it very frustrating. You spend most of your time in the game walking around somewhat aimlessly as you try to figure out what exactly you're supposed to be doing. It wasn't until 20 minutes in that I realized there was a keybind to see your task, and even that was ambiguous at times. On top of that, there were some bugs in the text-system where if you interacted with an item that generated a text prompt while the prompt was already being carried out, the text would stack on top of each other. As far as actual level design, I found myself getting frustrated at the bots, who seem to be all-knowing (even if you hide in the bushes) and telling myself, "I don't want to keep playing". At the final area of the game, I almost quit before seeing the ending because I couldn't figure out how to jump from the higher platform and it was VERY frustrating. TLDR: I hate to leave a bad review because this game is truly gorgeous and the story is good, but the problems made the experience too frustrating to want to continue playing. I hope that future projects from this developer can overcome some of these issues. PS: I did 100% complete the game
It is a nice little game about an hour to complete. the price tag of 0.39 eur was totally worth it.certianly has some flaws but stilla good game
Once in Flowerlake is a 3D low poly plodding adventure game. You're an old man who works in a snowed in hut surrounded by electric force fields in some kind of post apocalyptic science fiction scenario. Your job is to keep a few machines running by a laborious process of trudging around them in a circle... but then some strangers show up outside the barrier and the story kicks off. From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. The game features lazy low-polygon "retro" assets, making this look like a barely functional 3D game from the 1990s. It's unclear why the developers weren't able to arrange high quality, high polygon count contemporary assets for the game, and also irrelevant... what matters is that this looks bad as a result of their decisions, a compromise PC gamers shouldn't have to put up with. The controls can't be customised, which will be an annoyance for many, but it can also render the game unplayable for differently-abled gamers. While this is on PC, it has all the hallmarks and deficiencies of a console game, from the clunkier than needed control scheme to the less than cutting edge graphics. There's 10's of thousands of PC games on Steam, and PC gamers deserve only the best. This might not appeal to many gamers due to the lack of PC-centric design. It's unclear why this game was never accepted on the video game console appliances it seems to have been designed for. These technical defects push this game below acceptable standards for any modern PC game. The poor quality of this game is reflected in the general public reception. At the time of this review, SteamDB shows the all-time peak player number was only 8 players. That's right, only 8. This is a pitiful enough number, and now, the only player activity occurs once or twice a month, presumably someone loading it up to see what it is then quickly uninstalling it. Considering there's over 120 million gamers on Steam, the overwhelming lack of interest in the game is remarkable, but also to be expected. This complete and utter rejection of the game from gamers should be a keen information point for anyone considering buying shovelware like this. Gamers just didn't take this seriously, and for good reason. [quote][url=https://mmofallout.com/valve-bans-titles-for-review-manipulation/]Warning: Review Manipulation![/url][/quote] This game features a number of fake positive reviews from accounts known to be in the business of review manipulation/paid reviews. They're all written in either Russian or broken English, appear at almost exactly the same time, very shortly after the game launched on Steam, all have a direct Steam purchase of the game, and the accounts are used consistently to write fake reviews for asset flips and other cash grabs/scams. The "Positive" review score on this game should be disregarded due to this blatant, unethical review manipulation. This is done to deceive and scam gamers into paying for a bad product. Once in Flowerlake has the almost scam-like price of around $5 USD, it's not worth it given the defects and shortcomings with the product, especially considering the unethical nature of the developer.
Karakterin karda yürüme hızı adil kullanım kotalı TTNET hızı gibi.
Приятное приключение среди снегов, тихого ветра и какого-то неизвестного гудения. Недлинная, но интересная. В духе рассказов Рэя Брэдбери. Не советую играть ночью перед сном. Не страшная, но можно немного начать засыпать, пока тихонько перемещаешься из одного места в другое :) 6 из 10. Демонстрация употребления алкоголя, курения и всякой непотребщины не замечена. Для любителей интерактивной литературы.
