How does your game fit the theme?
The leaf is controlled by the wind. sometimes to go forward you need to "let go of control". You can only use one button to blow your leaf in the air, everything else is... not up to you...

There's another side to being out of control that not a lot of the other games (mine included!) picked up on: accepting it. This game takes that idea and runs with it. I initially tried to fight with the wind for control over the leaf, but it wasn't until I relinquished control and traveled with the current that the experience came together. Real nice job, I really enjoyed this!

GrooveyardReally relaxing and an original take on the theme. I played all the way to the end and really enjoyed the whole experience, it was very atmospheric and calm. The enemies could be a bit annoying especially when they were placed directly next to a checkpoint... I think they felt a bit out of place during such an otherwise calm game and sometimes I found myself getting annoyed, although the check points did help reduce this frustration. Overall an amazing game and a very creative take on the theme, great job!

Ice Cream Boy and the Magic BulletA really nice concept, you definitely succeed in your goal of making a relaxing experience and it was really nice to listen to the soft guitar music while floating around. Gave me a lil goosebumps :) Awesome job. Curious on how you made the procedural wind effect (both visually and generatively wise)

Tower of the UnknownIt's quite relaxing.
The first time I launched it, the menu the didn't show up and I was very confused. It worked after closing and reopening.

Robot OverloadLove the way the wind is done procedurally (as far as I could tell), and the feedback when you touch the checkpoints was so cool! I would have loved more flowers to touch and get feedback off of it was a really satisfying effect! Great job!

SlimulationWe fluttered onwards to victory. It was a pleasant and chill experience, mostly. There was a warning, "Yeah I wouldn't touch those", and then we saw a flower, so for a little while we thought the point was to avoid the flowers. Didn't take long to realize it meant the 'lil red things, though. Well done! ^_^

Sweet ReactorI thought this was cool, though it did jump a bit back and forth between relaxing and "Oh crap, I'm gonna hit this thing" or miss a flower. The text was a little hard to read, especially when the sentences got longer. White text on light blue background with white wispy wind can be hard to catch.
Unrelated, but I totally thought the L's were W's and I was shook when the first words in the level I thought read "Hewwo".

The 12:17 Fairway ExpressThis game is nice! The music fits the game well and I love the wind system + art style. In it's current form I'm not sure if its the strongest fit to the theme because you can have pretty good control over the leaf. I do really like the idea of the wind carrying you around though!
