Luxuria Superbia

[h1] One hour of pollinating the flowers was not enough to convince me this is a good game. [/h1]

It looks like a journey up the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Just No.

Heads up this game is abit strange and needy, i mean start game (hi game!) no hi just instruction then constant requests of "Touch me!" uhhh?? I only just booted your exe ..wow there! even so it was kinda charming and chill and weird it was weird! but not restraining order weird, relaxing weird?? yeah sure why not! Music is all. but timing is important, at the peek of your performance a crescendo should be reached by all members (of the band of course tshh!), if treble and vocals are shredding and wailing then the bass and drums should keep the pocket while rhythm balances between remembering to maintain the suspense of the overall music by drawing out the ending, just when you think the melody is taking you there the drums kick back in then bass vibrations infuse your body... Well you get the idea this game wants to make beautiful music with you! The music is tranquil and ..uh.. iam gonna say wibbly!! The game it self is not lude or visually controversial, infact the visuals (u can see in the steam vid) is a journey through the different stems shapes plants, triggering with carfeull timing will release ...uh? strange things!!! eventually you will navigate serval colors until…

Okay, dropping a quick review for this one after seeing a bunch of hate commentary about it because this is such a sexy game. If the spicy text bothers you, you can pause the game and click the bubble that says 'show text' to turn it off. Then you can enjoy the trippy visuals and music with reduced discomfort. The flowers are lovely and colorful. The entire game is glorious eye candy. (Though I'd be lying if I said that any of this is why I've been playing it for hours.) It's a wonderful art piece that celebrates touch, stimulation and pleasure AND the joy of slowing down and taking your time to get the most out of the experience. Hell yeah.

It’s bright and colorful, but essentially an interactive screen saver or sound equalizer. Its about the experience than actual gameplay... a short “touch game”... whatever that means. The problem is it doesn’t really go anywhere. Solo play is fine, but it’s all very shallow. You can appreciate the design and how thought out it is, but there isn’t much to it. It’s fun for like a few minutes at a time, but it doesn’t stick. I had a bit of fun, but it’s not something I’d return to. If you’re curious, it’s worth a quick look if you get it on sale.

I was not filled with joy.
