I think this game was featured in IGF this year, I recall it winning an award alongside Aquaria. If it is what I believe it to be, then this looks like it could be a great game on Wii. LS

Great to see so many smaller devs keen to jump on Wii!

The game looks beautiful, the art sytle is charming and looks like a chinese brush painting. I hope Aquaria follows and is brought to Wii also.

Off the track a little-
I hope in Pikmin Wii that you can float around on seeds like that vid shows. It would be cool if Pikmin grabbed onto seeds and used them as coptors to scale heights Smilie. LS

Personally I quite like he idea and I'm all for weird indy games, but I just think it looks awful... It doesn't really look like you do anything, and any goals you try and meet are just going to feel weird because... Well... You're a seed... I think maybe it should just stay as a bit of an experiment

Well it's still very early in development, once the frame rate and textures are put on it as they like, it will look better i'm sure. The demo they showed at GDC was beautiful and polished in comparison. LS

I didn't mean graphically I just meant the whole gameplay premise seems terrible

You mean flower sex, it's always turned me on, sometimes I bypass the garden shed for the green house.

I suppose the gameplay mechanic is obscure, but then all these game that win awards are essentially deemed fun by the voters. LS
