Hey dude, looks cool from the screenshots, however I was unable to make anything happen (Windows)! If you have the time, shoot me a message on how to play. Thanks!

Do you have a leap motion? As mentioned, you need one to play :f

Couldn't play it but watched the gameplay video and enjoyed it! That was just as good as playing some of these games myself. Great mood, peaceful, interesting concept.

I think requiring a Leap Motion might be a major problem for people wanting to play your game really quick. There is absolutly no information about this in your game itself, so I was thinking I was looking at a nice screensaver (it looks nice by the way ;)).

Graphics look awesome, but I don't really see a goal. Not every game should need a goal, but right now it just looks like tapping random places to create/grow a plant.

That's really what it is! It's just a visual/mood experiment, nothing more.

I have a Leap Motion, so I could play it! :)
I like sandbox toys like this so this was nice. I wish there was a bit more going on: generative music from the plants, the plants moving when you touch them. I can see this turning into more.

Cant run it so I cant rate it but it looks amazing as always Pol :) Love the dense, vegetative feeling of everything.

Its nice to see devs that are working with leap motion out here. Nice entry, tho no win or loose condition, its not a bad thing, just feels like there is no feedback from the game, and you must grow plants and flowers until pc will get freezes. Anyway nice entry Pol.

It's too bad you caught me on holiday, I have a leap motion at home but I couldn't bring it with me! I can't try it until I get home after the ratings are done. (Actually I get home Sunday night, which might be just enough time to squeeze it in.)
