UPDATE: Deal extended due to the overwhelming response! Thanks everybody!

flowmo is an art game for iPad centred around discovery and exploration. The game is designed to immerse you in an alien world and to create a magical atmosphere of awe and wonder, filled with the joy of discovery. Our testers describe the experience as trippy and “trance-like”.

flowmo is a "musical short story". Events in the game happen in sync with the music, and you are along for the ride! The story – told by the music and events – follows the evolution of a fictional universe, from the very moment of its creation, in abstract form.

The point of the game is to experiment, be playful, and see what happens when you try things out.

Features include:

  • Full multitouch support, up to 11 fingers
  • Quick and responsive interactions
  • Pinch-to-zoom to view the universe at different scales once it has fully expanded
  • Complex world which follows its own laws of physics
  • All interactions emerge from these laws and are not hard-coded
  • Chaotic system with emergent behaviour
  • Try to create behaviours which have never been seen before!
  • Discover the forces governing the universe through interaction and exploration

We've had some very positive press so far:

"A delightful experiment [..] really quite special" – 148apps

"a fascinating abstract experience [..] a powerful emotional journey" – Digitally Downloaded

"we are hooked on it. flowmo is sensationally trancy [..] an awesomely magical game" - Shane the Gamer

If you've got any interest in the notion that games can be art, this is an experience that shouldn't be missed.

But flowmo also has broad appeal: it's aimed at anyone aged 4-80 who wants to chill out with a beautiful, mesmerising experience.

ToyBox Labs is an Aussie indie 2-person studio working out of a Newtown apartment. We're happy to answer any questions about the game, and we'll be watching the thread.

For a limited time only, you can download flowmo for iPad for $0.99.

    You don't work for Apple so your not a Store rep. Should be a forum deal.

    Hi Spathy! I was told by OzBargain to tick the Store Rep button - I think it's broadly meant to show affiliation with the product listed.

    • yep that's right. I don't know where Spathy gets his definition from… have some sympathy for him..
