Planet of Lana

神作 不多解释 我爱猫猫

一款在我心中不输于《Inside》的作品，如果你喜欢唯美治愈的画风和音乐，解谜冒险，一个人玩游戏但又怕孤独，那就一定请来试试这个游戏吧。

If an animation short movie was a game, this would be it. If you want a short game, with an overall slower pace, on quiet day, I recommend you Planet of Lana. Planet of Lana is a lovely story game with platforming and puzzle elements. There is no "dialogue", it's their own minimalistic and abstract language, akin to The Sims, yet you can understand the intent and emotions completely. I found myself loving the little companion far more than I expected. At first I thought it would just be a gameplay element added to fulfil a role (which did pretty well), but it was so much more. The environments, sounds and music are delightful and the puzzles use them well, everything is well put together to deliver a nice immersive experience. You can really feel the work and love put into the game, from start to finish. - My only negative comment on the game is the "No Death" achievement. While it's a very fair achievement to have, especially on a short game, it was enough for me not to want to 100% it. The game isn't hard and it even offers a chapter selection when you're done so you can revisit areas, but some of the puzzles require precise timing or distance calculations, both from you or your companion. The smallest of slips can happen. It's not a dealbreaker for playing it, I just feel for the type of game and the mood it has, it's not really required. Maybe if each chapter recorded "you completed this part without dying!" and you could just replay the ones missing, that would be more motivating.
