This is the best game i see in last few years
It reminds me on another world back then in early 90′s.

This was a really excellent game that certainly got my vote. I must ask, is there a downloadable version of this? I’ve got a small collection of environmental games going, and this truly deserves a place of honor…

Thank you, again, for making this wonderful, imaginative piece of art.

Cheers! All the music tracks from the game are by Kevin MacLeod, and are freely available in high-quality format on his site. I linked to the individual tracks in this post. Enjoy!

David…. i.. don’t even know where to begin with this…
i was on rathergood.com just looking around because things seemed pretty funny to me, then i stumbled upon this… beauty…. at first, it was fun, sucked me into the game… really did..
and as i progressed through the game, the soundtracks kept me in awe…
i just have something to ask from you…

the last place i teleported to… a spiralish level with what seem to be fossils coming from the ground… “small_worlds_sound_00082.mp3″

that song.. i extracted it from the flash, because its just…. amazing.. please, can you give me the name of the song, or higher quality version.. any kind of information on it…

Thank you in advanced..

and Thank you for this wondrous piece of art.

I can imagine that you are assuming that indie game developers such as David care about titling their work to avoid other things already established out there (networking sites aimed at kids, networking sites for business adults (the first two or three results) or board games (only found this one by searching ‘Small Worlds’ and your name, apologies, you may have hit it earlier on your google search)).

I suspect the phrasing that could have expressed your thoughts would be “Oh, here’s something that’s titled the same as something that I am into, how wonderful!”

Still, the Small Worlds board game looks really interesting as does the site I saw some of your posts on – http://www.boardgamegeek.com/ . If anyone wants to have a look I’d encourage them. Equally, perhaps, you could spread the word about David’s game too as at the end of the day there is a very similar mindset that would appreciate both.

I’m sure it’s a fine game, but you really needed to pay more attention when choosing a name for it.

I mean, really, all you had to do was Google.

David,
Let me to congratulate for this really awesome and impressive game. This is the only kind of games, what I could play for anytimes and it’s still gripping for me. The gameplay, huh…:)

Best regards and greetings from Hungary,
Attila Ujvarosy

P.s.: Merry Christmas!

Maybe it’s a film-student thing but I’ll have to agree with Scott Glasgow’s comments above: absolutely brilliant way of presenting fragments of a story and letting the player reconstruct it in their own mind. I haven’t had a videogame narrative affect me this strongly since Braid. Amazing visuals (both the images and the excellent zoom-out trick) and fantastic soundtrack. Honestly, I’m fairly certain this beats every single film I saw and every single book I read this past year. Thank you
