About This Game What is Calendula?Calendula is an experience. Calendula is a mystery. Calendula is a glass full of blood. Calendula is an experiment. Calendula is an atmospheric game. Calendula is a flower. Calendula is your deepest secret... About CalendulaCalendula begins as a usual game... until it is not anymore.The player's goal will be to unveil the mystery behind an apparently broken game, but it won't be easy. Calendula's mechanics are entirely focused on the struggle of trying to start a game, exploring the limits of the 4th wall and breaking with conventions. Calendula's aesthetics follows an increasing obscure atmosphere, plunging the player into a disturbing, thrilling experience.The narrative is built within a labyrinth of metaphors and abstractions, ready to be unraveled. Unlike other games, the player will feel as if things didn't work the way they should, similar to Twin Peaks' Red Room (David Lynch). The player's journey goes from simple to complex, from bright to somber, from real to dreamlike. To follow Calendula's path, the player will have to use his wit and think outside the box. In this case, a tiny oppressive box.Please, remember this: It is not your fault. a09c17d780 Title: CALENDULAGenre: IndieDeveloper:Blooming Buds StudioPublisher:Blooming Buds StudioRelease Date: 2 Feb, 2016 CALENDULA Download] [full Version] 8904 calendula lane. calendula pronunciation. calendula flower meaning. calendula jock itch. calendula in english from spanish. calendula native region. 2400 calendula road lexington ky. calendula cream cracked nipples. calendula pcos. free calendula flower picture. calendula uses in witchcraft. calendula cream target. 73 calendula circuit epping. calendula officinalis in english. calendula zone 5. 70 calendula avenue craigieburn. calendula 200c. calendula english. calendula johnny's. 501 calendula ct. calendula herbal alcohol-free extract toner. calendula yountville. calendula officinalis flower extract. calendula 30 benefits. calendula health benefits. calendula perennial. 8904 calendula. calendula en ingles. calendula maceta. calendula juicy cream review. calendula powder. is calendula gluten free. calendula uk. 4709 calendula ave middleburg fl. calendula macerated oil uk. 4 calendula ct jackson nj. calendula resina. calendula native. calendula uses herbal medicine. calendula hoodoo. calendula oil whole foods. calendula properties. calendula cream for cracked heels. calendula meaning in english. 75 calendula cct epping. calendula x brufoli. calendula yellow. calendula definition. calendula and eczema. calendula for dogs. calendula medicinal uses. 4133 calendula court. calendula oil benefits hindi. calendula flower images download. calendula bloom time. 4677 calendula ave. calendula rosacea. calendula eps free. calendula q for hair. calendula pills. download calendula game How do I even begin to describe this game? WAIT! Did I just called CALENDULA a game!?!?! I........... I don't know what to say about this 'game'.... or experience so say..... This experience was really strange, bizzare, odd, weird, creepy, scary, and enigmatic but in a really good other worldly way.....CALENDULA is an Indie Horror Puzzle 'Game' (coughs) Experience where you don't play the game, the game plays you. You must solve the bizzare puzzles in the main menu in order to 'succeed' in 'playing the game' which will slowly reveal what is about to happen.. If you're a gamer (haha excuss my pun due to my Steam name and no I'm not Sans..... XD) that doesn't like puzzle\/horror games then I don't think this game is for you but if you enjoy puzzle\/horror games, then I highly recommend you guys or ladies to play this 'game' or other worldly experience! :D. Interesting puzzle game, but way too short for the money. I like the concept of the "game" that cannot be played. As that is a daily problem for most with normal games. No real plot or story, but you kind of piece the puzzle together, with its bizarre graphics, photos, videos. Once the ending comes you will kind of relate the images to the answer, though this is grasping at straws.For a quick bit of entertainment, it is neither good or bad. Just an average time filler that I would get on sale. At least 75% off would be nice.Overall I give this a 2 out of 5 Beers.Cheers,Frost. I really liked the concept of a haunted video game ala PonyIsland\/Undertale, but the game isn't even an hour long and the puzzles are way too simple.. It's a game that doesn't want to be played. Or at the very least, will make it incredibly difficult for you to even start up. Calendula is a surreal horror experience that emphasizes atmosphere over jumpscares, and does it in a unique way with mind-bending puzzles just to "start" up the game.The game itself is fairly simple: It takes place mostly on the main menu screen of the Calendula game, and you have to change several things with the video and audio in order to find passwords to unlock the saved files or to start a new game. The puzzles can be quite tricky, though they are nothing too horrifying to solve (though some can be difficult). I took a year long break playing this game and managed to solve the puzzle I was stuck on a year ago within a few minutes, so it's not too bad if you leave it for any lengthy period of time.The game doesn't have much in the way of art, though it does have some walking cutscenes where the player moves down a series of steps or a hallway. A lot of times, these visuals are quite muddled, and usually have some surreal aspect going on for it. While it definitely added to the creepy nature of the game, I don't think it was particularly a pro or con for the game itself, especially since the majority of the game takes place on the main menu. The sound design is where the game shines, as it added an extra level of creepy to the game, and was placed at very specific and key moments that enhance the creepy ambience of Calendula.The game has(?) a story...though it's quite complicated and I think relies heavily on interpretation due to the surreal nature of the cutscenes. That's not a bad thing (I like stories like this sometimes) but I think if you're looking for something concrete this is not the game to look towards concerning an understandable story. It leaves you with more questions than answers, and I doubt there will be a sequel any time soon.Overall, a fantastic puzzle game that oozes with creepiness. The biggest con is that it's incredibly short, and you can probably beat it in 1-1.5 hours. For $7 it's not worth it for the time it takes to complete, so I highly recommend getting it on sale as I did.. An excellent and unique experience, there is no game quite like Calendula. For a game that is mostly made of seemingly broken features and insane surreal glitches, it tells a fairly coherent and enjoyable story. Even if you're not in it for the story, it's still a supreme mind-screw. The puzzles are brain-tingling but solvable, and each time I solved one I felt like I'd done something incredibly wrong.Note the short playtime, but also know that the game is expertly paced and just the right length for the type of experience it delivers. If you want to feel truly bewildered and slightly uncomfortable, then this game is definitely for you. It never let me get my bearings, and it was over before I knew what happened. I love it.. Deliberately glitchy, unstable and constantly fracturing, Calendula is hot on the heels of the recent Pony Island for the most meta game of 2016.We must manipulate a broken menu screen to be able to play the horror game 'Calendula'. But the game resists being played, actively evading the player with its constantly shifting commands.It takes the broken menu puzzles of Pony Island and makes a complete experience of them. Thanks to the sheer originality of its execution, it's effective and engaging, and Calendula conjures up plenty of opressive tension through its disconcerting atmosphere.Between puzzle sloving there are surreal first person vignettes which form the actual "game" of Calendula that we're trying to play. These sections add to the disturbing vibe rather than give any real exposition or narrative, until later when we're beat over the head with the obvious symbolism. Ultimately it's up to the player to decide "what it all means", and I concluded with a story that works for me, although that narrative doesn't connect with the mechanics of the game in any meaningful way. They feel like seperate experiences. Still, it's a sharp and mysterious atmospheric-puzzler, even if it's intended mind-\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665 doesn't quite come together with its mechanics in unity.. If you've played Pony Island then you have played a much better version of this game. Calendula has the same basic premise as Pony Island: Try and play a broken game that doesn't want to be played. The "game" plays out like an indie short film with bizarre imagery and a pretensious "plot". The entire game consists of about 15 very simple puzzles mixed in with some nonsensicle cut scenes of raw meat in a sink. If Calendula's aim is to be creepy, it failed. If Calendula's aim was to deep, it failed. Is it a digital representation of reincarnation?A metaphor for the creative process of making a game?I don't know.But oh well, It is not my fault.. If you don't know anything about Calendula, I envy you. Just play it before someone spoils it.This is one of those game where you don't see the 4th wall at all.Visually it has its own personality, and it's really beautiful in a disturbing way. But the big point about Calendula is its impressive atmosphere, even better if you play through in one sitting, with lights off and a good pair of headphones.It's a short experience that will stay in your head for a couple of days.If you liked The Stanley Parable, Pony Island or Dr. Langeskov, you'll like Calendula.. It is just... amazing. You can feel that pressure that something is gonna happen in every \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665ing minute that I played. I totally recomend to play with a good headphones and put the volume to high. Then you can take a good relaxing cup of tea because your heart will be over 120 bpms. Not recomended for cardiacs!Congrats to the team for making this game. I really enjoyed the experience and hope to see another from your team!. [WARNING: SPOILERS]I bought this game on a whim, because it looked interesting as hell, plus I'm a massive fan of meta\/headscrew games. The well done visuals and effects got me interested, and then... what? The whole ending turns out to be the overdone "whole thing is a metaphor for death\/rebirth" cliche? I was expecting to learn more about what was going on, to uncover some secret hidden in plain sight, have the information it wanted at the start to be used against me somehow, ANYTHING but that same cliche. The game did occasionally give some occasional good foreshadowing, but a big chunk of the disturbing imagery seems to have been put in there simply for the sake of being disturbing. I never really got invested in the game, I spent most of my playtime waiting to get to the good part.However... I don't really HATE this game. If I had, I probably wouldn't have even bothered to review it. I like the amazing potential it shows. The quality of the visuals, the effects, music, all show real talent, at least when it comes to creating an visually immersive experience.But I didn't really come for the graphics. I came for the experience. It sucked. 3\/10
