Flight Rising Discussion

wobbledogs is a goofy, lighthearted good time, definitely one of my favorite pet sim games. i love creating barely-functional horrors.

also going to drop a suggestion for dave the diver, it's fantastic.

Just joined the pinglist.
This is a really cool idea and I'd love to watch streams alongside other FR users!

What about Nintendo games? Would you be open to doing a Pokemon Nuzlocke?

I'd love to watch the mouse play A Little To The Left.

Editing to add instead of making another post so close to this one:

I'd also love to see Slime Rancher! The sequel is still doing early access things, but the original is finished. There is a setting to disable the enemies, which'll keep things more chill.

Also recommending:
Calico is SUPER cozy and chill.

Planet Crafter is great if you enjoy survival crafting things - it would be more appropriate than other things in this genre because there is no combat and nothing trying to harm you. You can die if you fall or run out of food/water/oxygen (or I guess if you get beaned by an asteroid, but you can see and hear those coming) but it isn't like Subnautica where you need to worry about things lurking around to grab you.

i would also love to see A Little To The Left!!

Unpacking is a similar cozy sorting game that i also enjoyed; it has a puzzle mode and a “free play” mode where you can put stuff wherever you want

It's quite obscure I think, but if you'd want something Stardew esque while being single player, I quite enjoy the cutesy art style of a game called Paleo Pines. It's a farming sim where your helpers are dinosaurs you can befriend.

[quote name="Aequorin" date="2025-03-31 07:41:16" ] Games like Baldur's Gate 3, the Fallout series, Dragon Age, the horror genre, etc are out. For possible future games off the top of my head, I have Rune Factory 4, Ori and the Blind Forest, My Time at Sandrock, and The Oregon Trail (2022). I also have Might & Magic 7, where I could happily play Arcomage for [i]hours[/i] if left to my own devices, but there are parts of the overall series that have not aged well. [emoji=block size=1] [/quote] Very sorry about the long message! I often make too many words Way too late to join stream but I figure why not send some game recs: I don't have it myself yet, but I've heard nothing but good about Fields of Mistria for another farming type game to try. There is also Tiny Glade off the stuff on my steam game followings for a cute little building thing though I am not sure how "streamable" it would count as. The Cattails games are good vibes as well if you'd enjoy a game built out of love for warrior cats and cozy games, I have the first and I've sunk a good few hours into running around as a little pixel kitty. Someone above mentioned Paleo and several of my friends say that one is delightful, as do a handful playing the Hello Kitty game thats got animal crossing vibes but I dont remember what platforms that one is. Another taking inspiration from stardew/story of seasons/harvest moon that isn't out yet is Moonlight Peaks which is like,,, supernatural halloweeny flavored farm vampire rpg? And Tales of Seikyuu which has magical animal transformations and I think a japanese themed worldspace/lore if I remember the blurb right. A Little To The Left is great for some chill puzzle time, Unpacking is also great, I think people mentioned both of those already but I've played both and had a very chill time. A lot of my library/desired items to pick up are RPG type games though and it sounds like those are being avoided, so I'm not too much help. [s]I'm absolutely still recommending literally any Final Fantasy game and Kingdom Hearts if only to play off of stream because they own my soul. (If anybody replies to me about kingdom hearts pls no spoilers for 3 I'm not there yet and I wanna run blind).[/s] (Again so sorry about the message length I hope replying now isn't too bothersome-)

[quote name="Aequorin" date="2025-03-31 07:41:16" ] [quote name="FireDragonFlare" date="2025-03-28 18:01:03" ] I wonder what other games Aequorin could play for us. [/quote] Games like Baldur's Gate 3, the Fallout series, Dragon Age, the horror genre, etc are out.

[emoji=block size=1] [/quote] Ori is a great game!! There's two of them too, so if the first hits well you'll have even more to play.

Oh!
Had no idea this was a thing, now, very cool!

Rune Factory 4 is a big recommendation on my part, i love that game so much i bought the switch port event though i already had the 3ds version lololol

Another rec from me is Sky: Children of the Light!

While it is a multiplayer game, it has small servers of max 8 people and the way it's structured makes it so that there isn't an in-game chat feature unless you sit down at designated areas with another player or spend igc to unlock it, there are little things that have messages in them (message boats or little tiny floating crystals) but all of those require a button input to open in order to read
In addition to that, you cant even see other players' outfits unless you 'light them'

It's very cozy, imo, but I 100% understand if it isnt an option due to the multiplayer it has


Other cozy games i enjoy:
90% of the story of seasons titles, as well as any harvest moon titles prior to 2014 (the year natsume no longer had publishing rights but still held the rights to the harvest moon title)
I havent played pioneers of olive town or a wonderful life's remake, so i cant speak on either of those, but I do enjoy the simplicity of the other titles i have played!

Fundimentally, however, they're very similar to stardew valley

AER-Memories of Old is very cozy and gorgeously made!
GRIS is another that's very pretty, but for all of its coziness, it is a bit sad

Spiritfarer is fun and cozy calm! Also a bit sad at times

Mythic Ocean is straight up extremely interesting as a game, not as cozy as some games but it's rather calming!

Paleo Pines is very very cozy, its dinosaurs! Which is pretty close to dragons-

Unpacking is cute and sweet, with the added benefit of no dialogue that i can remember

And for the last of the list of cozy/more calming games ive played: (not counting pokemon, as that's always a reliable option for me for cozy gaming, but idk how viable an option that is for streaming purposes)
Cattails! The first is less polished in graphic quality than the sequel, wildwood story, but both are solid games and very fun! Very stardew valley vibes if stardew valley was cats
