interesting.

Hi. Is there a demo  I can try before buying? I don't see a download link. And is the game in English? Many thanks

Hi Honk

That's really what we're going for, audio games are such an exciting area to develop in and we're trying to push the boundaries and get more people creating in this space. I'll be sure to update here when the iOS version is live.

Hi Gamelolly

There isn't a demo, but the game is only £1.99, and you can find a walk-through here to give you a much better idea of the game play: https://youtu.be/125bk6n7AhY

Thanks for responding everyone! Will check back regularly and respond to any questions.

All the best

Oh man, this is great. I'm listening to an audio book while this is on in the background. Best 2 bucks I ever spent.

This is awesome, first SoundStrider from Shift Baptic, and now this, all in the space of a few months.

I bought this as soon as I heard it was out. I really do enjoy all the different sounds you can come across in this. I do like the idea of being able to catch the sounds you like and put them in your own garden/s. I love the work these guys are doing. Keep it going. I can't wait till Pitch Black, A Dusk Light Story is available.

Hi everyone!

Thanks for the feedback so far and supporting the game. So pleased to hear of people enjoying it. It's quite scary as a developer releasing something that is a little left-field and that people are enjoying it is very gratifying indeed.

More fauna is certainly a possibility going forward, as is finding new sounds and adding them to your garden, but those new features represent significant time and so we'll have to see how well the game does before deciding on the scope of the update. Nevertheless there's certainly a drive to keep working on it and the reception seems very positive so far, so fingers crossed.

Thanks again for the feedback and I look forward to reading more people's thoughts on the game .

All the best

As soon as humanly possible. We had a similar issue with Audio Pong in that Apple don't seem to understand that the screen is intentionally blank without us telling them several times, and so they don't allow the game on the store until I actually get through to a human representative to explain. They were supposed to get back to me on Tuesday, I chased them up be we're still waiting.

The game got covered by a couple of streamers last night, this is one of the videos from streamer ChefTrebs, he did a great job of showing of how the game is meant to be played. Coverage starts at 3:25.

Hi,

This sounds like a really interesting concept. I think I’ll get more use out of it on my iPhone, so just waiting for the IOS version to drop, as soon as its out though I’ll be buying a copy and trying it out. From what I’ve heard so far in videos though,  great work Pitch black, a nice idea and as with dusk light really nice sounding sounds/soundscapes, looking forward to giving it a try

The only thing I noticed was that it seemed to be really heavy on resources. My battery was dropping quite a bit when it was just this program running. Though it could be some other settings that I have to reconfigure I suppose. I haven't tried lowering my performance, so I'll try that and see how it goes.

Interesting concept! Definitely sounds pleasant already.

I admit I won't be buying this just yet. While the sounds are certainly relaxing, I can get something similar from sites like MyNoise.net, and so would at the moment be better off making donations to those.

But I'll definitely be keeping an eye on the topic, and will be happy to buy this even for a higher price once some "game elements" get added. As others have suggested, ways to interact with the garden other than just walking around would be nice. Maybe a way for people to create their own gardens, with an option to export or otherwise share them?

It's a shame you no longer plan to make this into a strategy game, actually; I would've loved to play that.
