Wandering Memories

[h1] Прощание и воспоминание [/h1] Несколько призраков отправляются в места, где прошла их жизнь и жизни их родных. Они вспомнят своё прошлое и посмотрят, что изменилось после их смерти. В общем, это не игра. Это высказывание. За пару минут игрового времени мы посетим четыре локации, на двух можно поставить на свои места с десяток предметов, связанных с воспоминаниями нашего приведения, прочитаем несколько фраз главного героя и всё. После завершения прохождения разработчики, к их чести, сами говорят, что понимают желание игрока вернуть средства. Честно говоря, я совсем не люблю, когда разработчики насильно заставляют незнакомых им людей, игроков, узнавать свои личные истории и трагедии. На то они и личные, чтобы их знали только близкие люди. Да, я уже достаточно стар, чтобы пережить потерю, любовь... в каком-то смысле, предательство... всё это естественные вещи для жизни каждого человека. Намного более молодой человек, конечно, будет рваться к каждому подобному проявлению, которое для него ново. Но меру-то знать надо. Что же касается технического составляющего, никаких претензий не имею. Всё работает очень гладко, никаких багов (хотя где им тут взяться-то за пару минут игрового процесса). Картинка очень приятная, трава и листва красиво шевелятся на ветру, мягкие и приятные цвета у объектов. Музыка тоже приятная. Да, обзор я писал дольше, чем играл. Wandering Memories – это не игра. Это проба пера и личное высказывание авторов. [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/11769719/]Заглядывайте в группу кураторов, если понравился обзор. [/url]

So I'd recommend this on a sale or if you REALLY like this sort of thing and will play it again and again. Quick review is that this feels more like a really pleasant game jam. It is cute, it is exactly what it looks like, optimization is a bit wonky (play on low), the story works but could be extended to really hit home and it is very very short. For context I love short experiences like this; walking sims, atmospheric, and story first games are my thing, its what I develop as a dev myself. I was really excited to find one that came out today. I think in general its a very pleasant experience, the diorama environments are well done and fit with the gameplay and story is interesting but its 7 minutes long. I wasn't playing it fast either. I had to get up once or twice for in real life things. The gameplay is very similar to another game called woodo, except way less involved. You place pieces of items and build the scene in color. With each thing added you get more story. Its really not my favorite, but its functional. I think I'd really have appreciated the ending sequence be extended a bit. It was quite a reveal and for us not to let our protagonist to think about the consequences of that a bit before the end itself I think is a shame. I think they could have easily pumped out several more minutes of content with the story (maybe even closer to 30 or 45 minutes instead of 7) without stretching it and giving it more room to shine and more time to really be what it wanted to. I hope devs put in a lot more effort next time for their next experience. Optimization really shouldn't be a concern with so little on the screen. They really need to have considered what was chugging the system. A day or two of refactoring whatever the issue is really needed. Making the story a bit longer with more to experience.

Great! I wasn't expecting to be feeling as I was right out of the gate... This game manages to hit right in the feelings with its story, music and visuals. Yes, it's a short game, but it's worth it.

Like the description says, it's a short and cozy game. I liked it. Feedback: Audio: There are no audio settings so you have to change that outside of the game. Subtitles: I'm a fast reader but the way the subtitles appears in the game is not good. It looks nice but I can't read when the words move and teleports when making a new row. I ended up waiting until the subtitles were done before I read them.

Thank you for the journey! This game is such a nice treat. I'm looking forward to the next release.

I love the cozy feel of the game. But hate how abruptly it ends. Can't wait for the full length version.
