Replay: Knytt Stories
The main focus of Knytt Stories is atmosphere, environment and exploration, not complex gameplay and a barrage of media. With Knytt Stories you'll spend most of your time wandering around sparsely populated worlds looking for a few rare items, enjoying the beautiful visuals and ambient music the whole time. It's a unique experience in gaming and will pull you in from the moment you start playing. [review]
There hasn't been much lately in the category of interactive toys; cute little diversions that don't seem to have any purpose other than to delight and entertain, and possibly even to educate us while we play.
Enter Ecoimagination: A new site from General Electric (GE), the purpose of which is to raise awareness of the need for more abundant and safer sources of energy and water, and technological solutions to address those needs. Yes, it is an advergame of sorts, and yet the marketing aspect does not obstruct its entertainment value.
To get started with Seeds of Imagination, all you do is plant a seed by clicking on it. Once the seed is planted, a text entry box will appear for you to 'talk' to your plant by entering words. Some words have special meaning that will affect the growth of the plant. Try: sun, water, love, happy, fruit, etc. If a word is recognized, you will see it float up toward your plant. If not, it just disappears without a trace. You may also change the color of parts of the plant by typing in colors.
You will need to register with the site only if you wish to submit your creations to the gallery so that other visitors may rate them; however, you can do that at any point during play.
Very nice, almost tranquilizing music accompanies your efforts. A great way to relax while in front of the computer. Click.
With thanks to Rosalba for suggesting the link. =)

As simple as it is, it's completely addictive!!
You can also change all the colours, by saying "red trunk" or "blue leaves".
Soooooo nice!
Posted by: Tammetuk | December 21, 2005 3:43 AM
By the way, the "wormdance" is fenomenal!!
As I am not a native English speaker, it's hard to find really original words, so please give more suggestions...
Posted by: Tammetuk | December 21, 2005 3:46 AM
And give some exercise for your flower, type "joy"

It LOVES thunder and/or thunderstorms
Nitrogen
Lime
Soil Amendment
It doesn't know phosphorus, potassium, bonemeal, or other common soil amendments/fertilizers, though.
Flower names (rose, lily, etc.) also get a reaction.

General growth with optimism, as in:
Peace
Love
Care
Adoration
Imagination
I think jayisgames users should share e-mails so we can have a jayisgames garden.
Posted by: Luckdragon | December 22, 2005 4:22 AM
Luckdragon, you can use your Typekey account for that. Although I recommend to open hotmail or gmail address by some nickname for that.

be careful though, here are two problems I've run into (at least on my computer):
1. After loggin in, the "plant your seed" button is still there, just invisible, if you don't want another flower, you best not click it by accident
2. One of my flowers (which was so beautiful) suddenly started shrinking at ANY word I put in. I just recently was able to get it to grow back to most of it's former glory.
Posted by: Harukio

December 22, 2005 3:44 PM
Hmm, none of these seemed to work:
meltdown
Walla Walla
superfund
contracting fraud
Foreign Corrupt Practices Act
WorldCom

Hi, I Think the whole Idea is fantastic, but I have a problem. when I send one of the flowers to another person they can not get the page after it say's click here to view. it's just not available,just a blank. what a shame as I thought my flower in the gallery was great.
Thank you so much,
Bennyjean.
Posted by: bennyjean | December 23, 2005 1:12 PM
Hi Bennyjean,
Does the person you sent it to have the latest Flash Player installed? That might be it, but I'm not sure.
You can try sending it to me, and I'll see if I can view it if you like. My email addy is in the top left corner of this page.

Posted by: Kateish | June 8, 2006 10:43 AM
to Zenord:
A descendant flower is a flower that someone sends to you but you can only look at it. Nothing happens because it is still just a seed.
P.S. e-mail= crazyduck5@hotmail.com
