Very fun little game! Took me about an hour to beat, and while I think that there's still some ideas that could be wrung out of the concept all the levels felt unique and interesting.

A really cool and relaxing puzzle game! 

So I first played this when my stress was extremely high due to environmental factors. And man oh man, did this game calm me down so much. I didn't expect it to. I thought it might distract me and take the edge off. But the puzzles were just balanced enough to keep me interested, throughout the game, the music was so relaxing, and the sounds of the water moving was so soothing. And I got so much satisfaction from watching the flowers pop up once I solved a puzzle. The ending song and visuals made me burst into tears.

I mean, admittedly it was an extremely hard week I was going through. But super soothing game. Soothing, not too hard but not too easy, and every time something new was introduced it was at exactly the right moment.


Love it. 10/10. Thank you all for the time and effort put into it <3

Very fun game! I respect a game that has a specific goal and executes it well. The puzzles are satisfying, and the environs are just as detailed as they need to be. 

I like the difficulty of the puzzles. The harder puzzles were tough enough to make me scratch my head, but not so tough that I needed to phone a friend. Some were very easy, but I could tell they were there to teach me a mechanic, so I stayed interested (and got a pleasant break from the difficulty). The way they build on each other reminds me of Mario games.

It brought a smile to my face on a hard day.

WOW! beautiful game, really enjoyable to play, i would usually get through about 10 levels at a time, get stuck on one, get frustrated, quit for a few days, come back, succeed, then get through another bunch of levels before getting stuck and repeating the cycle again, so it was the PERFECT level of difficulty for me, and i really enjoyed the kind of physical nature of the puzzles. Excellent game! Excellent work! thank you for sharing!

beautiful and peaceful, i liked this a lot. 

i played this game over the course of a few streams and i had a lot of fun with it! :D the difficulty of the levels was nice and the feeling of accomplishment when i had finally done all of them was so neat :] the atmosphere of everything was also so calm, my only wish would have been to have a slider for the music/sounds :]

beautiful game!

A beautiful little game with a great learning curve, if only there were more levels 10/10

beautiful game, thx for making it

Super cute game, really enjoyed it!

What a fun, relaxing game!

Probably the ultimate beginner puzzle game, I hope this can be a gateway for more into the genre

I aspire to make a game as serene as this. The challenge ramp up is just how I like it, and the sound cues are chill but very satisfying. Headphones on!

i have been playing games for two decades, i have thousands of hours in various individual games, i've played AAA, indie, indie that turned into AAA, probably hundreds of random flash games, mini arcade games, puzzles, etc, etc, etc.


I have never played a game that made me feel as happy as Spring Falls. 100 out of 10. This is getting strong recommendations to all my friends, and a huge thank you from me ❤️‍🔥

this is great for intros of live youtube feeds before the person goes live

This game was delightful. I streamed it for friends expecting to do a few puzzles and come back to it later, but instead we worked together to finish it in one sitting. We were all extremely invested.

a lot of puzzle games i played and paid good money for wish they were that polished, fun and pretty

LOVE this game. Not only is it fun to play and easy to pick up, it's incredibly gorgeous and relaxing!

I bought this game in the Indie Aid for Palestinian Bundle, I play it every so often when I get too stressed and need to turn off my brain. This game is very calming and I love the puzzle design.

Love this game

I love this game! I'm not too far into it, but it's hard not to love the ambient music and the level designs. Great physics puzzler!

(+1)

Loved this game. Excellent puzzle design, UX design, and pacing. The introduction of new features and challenge each level presents is very well paced. Top-notch theming, very relaxing to carve out streams and waterfalls from the mountainside. Using running water was my favorite mechanic. Yall did a great job on this! 

Would there be any plans to bring this to Andorid?

(+1)

Thank you and happy you enjoyed it!

Yes, I am planning an Android release but not sure when it will happen. Hopefully will have news to share soon

This is a terrific game. A great idea, executed just right. The visual style is really well polished, the puzzles ramp up nicely, and the game feels like the perfect length. I was definitely worried that the puzzles would simply keep getting bigger and that their size would become the main obstacle. Luckily that wasn't the case!

A great choice, pick it up and enjoy!

I want like 10 sequels to this game. The puzzles are the perfect difficulty, the atmosphere is lovely, it is so dang relaxing.

An absolute gem of a puzzle game. Haven't finished it yet, but it is a soothing game, with great puzzle design, sound design and overall UX design. 

It's a great game that really achieves its aim : to make a peaceful puzzle game for short sessions. Thank you for this ! :D

This game is a beautiful and relaxing, intriguing little puzzle game. Well made!

played this around this time last year and i still think about it all the time. the best simple atmospheric puzzle game Ive played and with a motivation that really hit. pretty sure I cried at the end, tho it was a really tough year so take that as you will lol

Great game, puzzles aren't too hard or too easy. Good soundtrack and art. Now, to find something else by the author because I got this free in a bundle. 

My partner and I haven't finished all the puzzles yet, but we've been having a lot of fun with the ones we solved so far! The vibe is very gentle and relaxing too.

This is a game I find myself coming back to, the ambiance is very nice and relaxing, and the concept really drawn me in.

What a wonderful game! Downloaded it one morning and played only to realize I'd done 50 levels! The atmosphere is just so nice.

(+1)

I'm really struck by the the zen aesthetic of the shifting earth and moving water concept. Running water, ponds, and pools are some of my favorite natural things. So to see a game incorporate the guiding of water as a mechanic for puzzles is extremely cool.

Admittedly, it might be too relaxing to personally play for long periods, XD, but I don't see enough games that look or work like this. And it is gorgeous.

(+1)

This is such a lovely relaxing game.

The soundtrack is very soothing, it's very soothing to listen to while thinking about all the puzzles.

(+1)

Wonderful game, loved it! The audio made it nice for atmosphere and the puzzles were challenging and satisfying!

(+1)

Wonderfully peaceful and the perfect level of challenge for me. Introduces new mechanics often, and they all make sense without the need for complicated explanations. Near-perfect.

(+3)

Great flowers and just a beautiful game with some surprisingly tough puzzles.  Hexagonal style really adds to the flare and the music is just magnifique (trying to do that weird like french accent with it).  Anyway just a fun game definitely give it a shot.

A great, peaceful experience, where you have to bring water to flowers in order to make them grow. Really relaxing are the ambient sounds and music, and pleasant are the visuals and the colours. From the point of view of the gameplay, this game offers a collection of puzzles - pretty straightforward in the most cases - with a slow increase in the difficulty curve and the addition of new mechanisms going forward with the levels.

Beautiful game with excellent gameplay. Absorbing and very chill.

That was such a beautiful game and a lovely experience! It starts gently and the difficulty curve is excellent. The visuals and music are so calm and pretty. A few friends and I played it at the same time and it was so fun comparing where we were at (and occasionally asking each other for little hints on extra tough levels). It's nice that you can skip a level or two if you get stuck. The last level is locked until you do everything else, and isn't that hard compared to the previous ones, it's more of a victory lap, and then there's a beautiful song during the credits! Loved it! Really excellently done!
