Florifer
A downloadable game for Windows
I WANT TO TAKE YOU WITH ME AROUND THE WORLD...
Discover the verdant lands of Florifer and begin a journey without precedents. In an ancient forgotten temple, buried under a silent asleep world, a singular creature is born, last legacy of an antique ancestry of guardians of nature. His birth is the last chapter of a restoration opus having its roots in times no one (or almost) has memory of anymore... Guided by his sole instinct, the Bearer takes up the Pothorn which was always destined to him, and embarks in a journey to discover a vast land surrounded by nature, looking for the last miraculous seeds able to grow into flowers. In a world suspended in eternal, verdant limbo, populated with the poor remains of a civilization without memory and strange hermits, the Bearer is called to travel valleys and untangle among ruins from the past, climb mountains and descend into caves, collect the precious seeds, grow them in his Pothorn and take care of the last flowers yielded by nature.

CONTROLS
UPDATES
- New Pothorn Design! The new Pothorn is more compact and refined, with a nice root system to automatically attach wrap around the character's arms. No need to grab it from the ground or leave it anywhere: you can now carry it whereever you want.
- Improved menuing. We sensitively reduced the complexity of the menuing across flower management and inventory to have you basically pressing less buttons to do more and spend less time in menus. The flower menu is also dynamic and doesn't pause the game action, so you can check your flower's stats on the fly at any time.
- No music. Have a try, let us know how you like the atmosphere now.
- Better visuals, increased performance. We improved some extensively used shaders and reworked our trees to reduce draw calls and polycounts and gain performance.
KNOWN BUGS
- Partial compatibility between controller and UI. If you're playing with a controller, you'll find yourself unable to exit a few menus or select specific options. Unfortunately, right now, you'll have to resort to a mouse for full UI navigation.
- UI is placeholder. The looks and functioning of the UI is a placeholder and not representative of the final product. Some elements may look jittering and unpleasant, but keep in mind they're not intended to be definitive.
- Charater's Ears Physics. The character's ears may look broken due to physics asset issues.
- Unstable crate physics. There are some physiscs based crates in the tech demo. The interaction with them may throw the character and/or the crate with excessive force in undesired directions.
- Rare map despawn bug. The map may very rarely despawn at game launch or in specific areas, resulting in the character falling in the void. Exit the game and restart to get back to a stable situation. If the bug repeats consistently, please get in contact with us.
- Rare item swap glitch. You could find yourself unable to swap items. Exit the game and restart to get back to a stable situation. If the bug repeats consistently, please get in contact with us.
- Lost focus sotlock. If you ALT-TAB or press ESC or lose focus on the game while a menu is open, you may be no longer able to interact with the menu itself, making it impossible to continue playing. In this case, we recommend force-closing the game and re-launching it.

The game itself is a wonderful message about nurturing dreams and taking care of passions who keeps us alive. I really liked the concept, the colors and the music. Also the character is really lovely! I will definitively keep myself updated, keep it up!!
Played through the Demo for the first time ever and actually felt pretty refreshed and satisfied by it.
I like the calm music and elements in the world but still gave me an impression of excitement and me wanting to explore it. The World kinda makes you wanna explore it just by the design of it and i'm sure it would be super fucking cool if the end product of the game would build on that aspect and have a lot more and different ways to interact and play with that world.
some performance aspects:
was playing on Ultra Settings and 144hz on an GTX 1080 and it worked perfectly fine! :)
definitely see a lot of potencial in this game and really hope its gonna end up being a nice exploring, interactive 3D-Platformer !!! <3
Thank you so much! We really appreciate your feedback and we'll do all we can to make Florifer way better than it is now <3
A gem. So far the game gives me so much hope.
I love the overall feeling that the game provides, bright colours, relaxing music, amazing artstyle. I will surely keep on checking for new updates and features.
Keep it up
Amazing game dev :D
