Weaving Tides

没啥缺点，就是不咋好玩。

Visualmente es precioso y los puzzles son entretenidos, eso si la última zona del juego resulta un poco infumable por como te tienes que ir moviendo. Aún con esta pequeña pega, recomendable.

it's fun for a bit, the idea of weaving and unweaving parts of the world is quite fresh

神作！！偶然发现的甜品级小游戏，相见恨晚。线性流程，探索+解密+轻战斗，画风和人物很可爱，故事也很有趣温馨。总共5个章节，流程大约8小时左右，解密这一块非常优秀，难度恰到好处，对上脑波了常常能够会心一笑。个人而言十分推荐，值得一试！

The controls are really sh*tty, the combat is horrible and you are bombared with enemies just for the fun of it. Having to tie down a bunch of critters to progress is annoying af and it's repeated many more times than i cared to count. it felt like the "kill all of these enemies" puzzles were more common than actual ones. The boss fights are so damn stupid and unpredictable. You can know the pattern of the bosses`attacks and still lose or take countless tries before you finally win. You never really know where to go. There is no map and you have to fly around and hopw to find where you are supposed to be. the dialogue is never helpful. There are also instances where you are able to traves below the map but these paths are so badly done that looking for them is the worst. I've also had the game bug out and i was not able to talk to people anymore. The game should have been over by now but i am still only half way through. The combat prolongs everything, not in a good way and i just want it to be over. This looked like such a cute game and the idea of stitching the word back together was so iteresting, sadly that is never really relevant and you could just let the wholes be wholes... The game is horribly overpriced for the mess you are getting.

I enjoyed my time with Weaving Tides, though if you are playing with mouse and keyboard, it can be a little frustrating, as you lack the precision a controller can offer for a game like this. Weaving Tide's greatest strengths are its satisfying weaving mechanic, its great art direction, and interesting lore. I enjoyed learning about this world's inhabitants, and its history. Its biggest downside was a game-breaking bug at the end that blocked progression. The combat is also a little clunky, though that's partly because I was on mouse and keyboard. Overall, despite its flaws, I'd still recommend checking this out; if anything, just to experience something a little different from most other games out there. The weaving mechanic and the whole 'woven' aesthetic of the world are very cool.

Was gifted this by a friend whom I think got the key from the Kickstarter. I think. It's been 3 years and my backlog only ever grows... Ahem. Not to go off on a tangent like a certain yellow weaver. This game is absolutely adorable, mystifying and a pleasure to play. As the only human in a clothy, woven world, your peaceful existence is shaken when strange, destructive creatures begin to wreak havoc. You travel beyond the places you know to learn more about their source - as well as your own. Every puzzle and every enemy require you to do some stitching in the world-weave. Not every patch of ground is a weave though, so you sometimes need to put a little more thought in how you can connect your weaver's tail-ribbon in a way that defeats an enemy or opens a path. That's not to say you can't wrap over solid ground, as long as the distance between your stitch points is not too far apart. Diving in and out of the weave is not only convenient, but also necessary, and thorough exploration of potential underground passages will yield bonus treasure chests and secrets along the way. One thing I can very much commend is that the game always warns you when you're about to reach the point of no return and move to the next chapter. If you'd rather backtrack and explore more, that's your cue before moving on. Although don't despair if you later find that you didn't 100% a chapter, as you can continue the story with chapter selection as well. Some of the treasure chests contain ribbons, which are in essence purely cosmetic and (sadly) only used in the playground mode. Playground is essentially your very own giant cross-stitch that you can fill as you'd like. I haven't played around with it much aside for the achievement, but for some people it might scratch a very specific itch. Bosses can be hard, but are never unfair, and it generally becomes pretty obvious what you have to do to beat them if you watched them for a bit. Dying isn't much more than a set-back to the latest checkpoint. And if you end up struggling with bosses or puzzles, occasionally your weavers will offer hints as well, that you are free to take or ignore. This game could be recommended for young and old alike, and it is very charming in sounds and sights. Even after finishing I am left wanting more, be it more of the wondrous critters or even a continuation of the story. If anything my only gripe would be how short it is, because I definitely want to play longer. You can easily tell how much love went into this game.

——记录：《Weaving Tides / 编织浪潮》，cdkey - 6.20元，26/02/14入。 ——一款以布料编织为核心创意的手绘风俯视角冒险解谜游戏，世界观与美术极具辨识度，玩法围绕织线贯穿探索、解谜、战斗全程，整体氛围温柔治愈，但中后期机制重复、战斗设计偏简陋，属于创意亮眼但深度不足的小品佳作。 ——综合评分：7.2/10 ——基础世界观与主线剧情： 整个世界完全由布匹、丝线、刺绣、针线搭建而成，大地是拼接的织物，山川河流是褶皱与流苏，生灵都依托编织法则生存。 主角少年塔斯（Tass）自幼被织龙抚养长大，从未见过亲生父母，为寻身世踏上旅途；骑乘拥有超长织物长尾的织龙穿行大陆，沿途结识三位性格迥异的织龙伙伴：开朗爱冒险的特威尔、健忘儒雅的卢斯爵士、爱讲冷笑话的基利姆，可随时切换坐骑适配不同玩法。 主线表层是寻亲之旅，随地牢探索与碎片收集揭开世界真相：远古时期世界编织根基破损，腐败畸变的魔物蚕食织物大地，曾经维系世界的织工文明分崩离析；最终玩家需要修补世界本源织物，根据抉择完成结局，剧本整体温暖治愈，伏笔回收完整，但叙事套路偏经典王道冒险，没有特别颠覆性的反转，人物偏向童话化塑造。 ——最核心的卖点就是独一无二的织线系统，也是所有交互的根基。 1.地形穿梭：织龙可以钻入织物地面下方潜行，上浮时拖出丝线编织出新路面，填补断裂地形、搭建桥梁；丝线可固定锚点拉扯机关，既能赶路探索，也能绕开怪物偷袭，上下两层空间探索设计很有巧思。 2.解谜闯关：大量地牢谜题依托刺绣图案完成：按照地上纹样走线缝合机关、牵引丝线联动开关、限时编织指定图形解锁通路；谜题难度循序渐进，不会过度卡关，解开后看着完整刺绣图案成就感很强。 3.战斗体系：无传统刀剑攻击，打法统一为：冲撞怪物使其僵直→甩出丝线缠绕捆绑魔物直接封印消灭；部分 BOSS 需要多次拉扯丝线、破坏弱点才能束缚击杀。遇到强敌也可以直接遁入布面下方绕路逃走，强制战斗极少，容错宽松。 4.养成与自定义：收集货币解锁刺绣符文，给织龙加装被动词条（延长丝线长度、提升血量、潜行强化等）；通关解锁创作工坊模式，能用各色丝线自由手绘刺绣图案，相当于内置简易画画编辑器，额外增添休闲乐趣。 ——突出优点： 1.美术与氛围感独一档，视觉风格极其记忆点。全角色肖像手绘绘制，布料褶皱、刺绣花纹、布艺建筑细节细腻柔和，配色鲜亮柔和；搭配轻柔空灵的原声配乐，俯视角慢悠悠探索织物世界，放空感拉满，是非常典型的解压向冒险体验。 2. 核心机制高度统一，玩法闭环干净。探索、解谜、战斗、机关全部围绕 “编织丝线” 展开，没有割裂多余的系统，上手门槛极低，手柄适配完善，键鼠与手柄操作都很顺手。 3. 内容体量扎实，主线流程长度充足，多个主题区域 + 独立地牢迷宫，支线收集、伙伴支线、隐藏区域数量丰富；自带官方简体中文，无需汉化补丁。 ——短板与游玩疲惫点： 1.战斗设计过于单薄，全程只有 “撞晕 + 捆线” 一种输出方式，BOSS 战无非就是增加小怪干扰、多阶段拉扯丝线，没有招式变化与操作深度。中后期地牢怪物扎堆，反复捆绑击杀的重复感会快速上升，战斗更像是解谜附带的累赘环节，极易乏味。 2.谜题套路固化，中后期创意枯竭。前期走线、锚点机关新鲜感十足，但后半程谜题基本都是同类缝合逻辑，只是增加步数与干扰项，很少出现全新机制，长时间游玩容易陷入机械式解谜，缺少脑洞型高巧关卡。 3.地图引导简陋，大区域没有清晰路标，隐藏通路埋得较深，想要全收集必须反复地毯式扫图。部分区域分层嵌套，上下织物层切换容易记混方位，容易迷路重复跑图，舔图收集的时间成本偏高。 ——喜欢手绘童话画风、俯视角解谜冒险、偏好慢节奏治愈探索、反感高强度硬核战斗的玩家；折扣入手性价比极高。 26/07/09
