Yet, another indie game. This one is very short and quite nice. It is called Sprout and made by Jeff Nusz. It is about the journey of a seed. Quite creative!
I’m fond of all the little sound effects and the parallax scrolling. Gameplay-wise I like how you even get new abilities and how effectively it enriches the experience. It’s almost Metroid in a nutshell. My only remark would be that there is not much game here. It’s a series of very few and very simple choices. Compared to that, there is a lot graphics and sound effects involved. Little interactivity, lots of assets. It seems a bit inefficient and unbalanced.
Still, it’s short, innovative and I enjoyed it very much.
