Steam News letterhead that reads the following message:

Wow. I’m writing these final words before we press the big scary Release button on STARWEAVE and finally see our efforts presented to the world. I can only hope, as I usually do, that my work, our work, finds purchase in the hearts of our players the same way its earnest bid for the world gripped the team as we developed it. 

We want STARWEAVE to be a story that touches hearts, that acts as a light in what is resigned to always feel like dark, cruel times. May our game convince you to create little revolutions of your own, to get out there and put action to compassion, to change the brutal systems that ordain our lives.

I hope our game changes something, however small, about the way you think about the world around you: the capacity you have to see our complicated and contradictory world from the eyes of another, to wholeheartedly understand the circumstances behind why we lob hatred and scorn towards those we find other, to hold a burning and impelled compassion for all that is broken and unfair about the cycles that control us, and to do something to end them.

Donate, protest, speak up, act, and strive for revolution. Workers’ rights, human rights, peace for the war-torn, equity for the disadvantaged, unapologetic social justice. In a world where shortsighted complacency is easy and safe, do the hard thing and truly consider what binds us to a life that could be better in as short as tomorrow. Refuse the status quo and strive for what broken Beacons could beget us, how much kinder the world might be if we forged a revolution with our compassion. 

Thank you, children of the stars. Remember what progress each past generation has granted us, and what we can grant to everyone who still comes after us.

Post image A steam review. The text of the review reads:

Just looking at the game's page, you can tell that "Starweave" is trying to say SOMETHING. However, it is not immediately clear exactly what that "something" will be until quite late in the game- the game motions at guessing what that could be quite a bit, but it isn't until later in the game that it really shows its cards. And how nicely it did so!

"Starweave" plays with expectations, recognizes itself as the art piece that it is, and does my most favorite thing of using game mechanics as a storytelling medium. It couldn't be anything but a game- or at least, it wouldn't be the same story if it wasn't a game. The voice acting was a wonderful and welcome surprise, particularly for a game that's only five dollars, and the illustrative pieces go without saying for how pretty they are. Even though it was pretty clear when different artists were working on different pieces, I didn't feel as if the styles clashes with each other, but rather spoke to the number of people who cared about the project.

My one nitpick with this game though is the textboxes cutting out/fading in with every progression. It gave me a headache and took me out of the story quite a bit, which is a shame given that the story itself is so lovingly written, and it's preventing me from multiple playthroughs, at least for now. That being said, I did enjoy my short time with the game. For the price point, it's well worth your time.

9. Starweave

a short & beautiful game! i don't want to repeat myself so i'll screenshot my steam review, but i liked the game quite a lot. its only 3 dollars for a limited time, so there's no reason not to try it out if it seems as if it'll appeal to you at all- it does quite a few cool things

FLORIOLOGY
THE IMMORTAL CULTIVATION PROJECT

FEBRUARY 20th, 20:00 EST

[ PROJECT FLORIOLOGY ] is a Lunar Menagerie event organized by HEARTMUSH and KOLOQUIALS. This season, eighteen sharp-witted scientists direct a series of bioemotional test runs to sate their curiosity and dive into the ontological unknown.

FILE: //THE_SCIENTIFIC_PROCESS
This is a GACHA-STYLE adoptable event. Once open, customers may pay to pull a random design from the list of VIRUVIRENT and PHYLLOSTATIC blossoms, or spend a little extra to specify which adoptable they'd like to purchase based on its silhouette and preview.

"Yet within this sprawling pain, is when we are galvanized to grasp meaning most tightly. Our facilities are dedicated to cultivating experimental opportunities in pursuit of total cognizance over matters of the heart."
