There are a lot of extremely good minimalist games. fl0w, Everyday Shooter, and A Game About Bouncing all leap to mind when one talks about how minimalism in gaming can lead to great things. There's now another example, thanks to Phyta. An extremely simple game, you control a dark sun that must control the growth of a shadowy plant to catch golden angels flitting about the landscape. This is the extent of the game. With the mellow sounds and music, stylized art, and simple gameplay, it's a great way to relax and bask in the glow of a pretty game. The game has 5 levels, and quits abruptly at the end of the 5th level.
