I am an ambient person therefore I like this game. And in a different world, I'd push for non-violent dominance in the gaming space. Sadly we're not in that world, nor is it a feasible thing to suggest.
I don't think I would feel as strongly about this game if I hadn't played it with motion controls the first time. I recently replayed on PC and certainly very enjoyable still (severely underrated here), but the motion controls really enhanced the relaxing atmosphere and abstract style of play.
though i can see flower appealing more depending on the person
