Oct. 2024

Things I enjoyed about this game: Short, sweet, fun creature designs, simple but functional story, very pretty environments, good quality of life features. Things I did not enjoy about this game: Lack of any type of sprint key (very very felt when you're backtracking to find one missed creature), occasional lack of polish (I accidentally stumbled upon a glitch where I trigger a sound cue at the same time as I triggered a cutscene. the sound cue proceeded to repeat for the entirety of the cutscene). Generally gameplay is fun & engaging, if you don't mind the occasional frustration of animations lagging at the same time as you try to photograph them.

Fun and cozy game. I like games with taking photos. The only cons are - too short, controls are sometimes clunky especially picking up stuff. Devs shouldn't make achievement for picking up something ~20 times when this is the worst mechanic of this game.

July 2024

I liked playing this, but it is a bit unintuitive at times, making it hard to figure out how to move to the next area. Also sometimes a perfectly good photo does not register for the behavior it shows. Like i got stuck with the camouflage behavior and only fourth of fifth photo (that said it showed the behaviour) finally registered and I could proceed. Otherwise, it is a cute, colorful game that would be very relaxing without the cutscenes that interrupt the gameplay at inconvenient times.

June 2024

Very cute, adds up to a few hours of relaxing and fun gameplay. I love the creature designs, especially the butterfly-winged bats, all of the reptiles and the lil spiders.

Feb. 2024

A charming, yet under baked photography game I'd recommend if you want a wholesome stress free experience and don't mind a little jank. The sketched journal and imaginative creature designs are a cool touch and the story has its heart in the right place (if a bit patronising). As a casual photographer and fan of the genre editing is half of job. I wish the interface was easier to navigate, especially when it comes to quickly deleting photos. Never interrupt me when I'm in photo mode! Too many unnecessary text prompts and interactive objects that don't need to be activated when I'm trying to get the perfect shot.
