Cloud

Post by eMTe »

Cloud is an acclaimed action flight game that allows players to realize their life long dreams of imaginative flight, manipulating clouds and creating weather. "A childhood dream simulator" is how many of its fans describe it.

Cloud is a game designed to remind the player of the natural beauty ignored in their daily life. A cup of sparkling water, waving leaves under the sun, blue gradient in the sky, infinite forms of clouds. It is a unique game; a relaxing, non-stressful, meditative experience.

The game is completed as a USC game innovation lab research project. It contains four major tutorial levels, representing four different dreams from the child’s point of view, which help players understand how to play the game. There are also ten extra mini-levels for players to enjoy the game features introduced in the training levels.

A work of art and a small piece of heaven. Sheer beauty in a fantastic emo package. Pity that there's only four levels, 2-3 of them tutorials... This game is still something that will affect your mood, and that counts for a whole lot.

The sheer beutifulness of this game, the childishness, the innocense, the dreamish yet somewhat sad atmosphere of this game could not get anything lower than a passing grade from me. It was a pleasure playing it, and if it had had more clear controls, a bit more to the gameplay, and groundgrahics, then I would have surely given it a topgrade.
