This game is unique, pretty, wonderful and appropriate music and... boring as hell.

This is coming from a huge fan of fast paced simple games, so don't pay much mind to what I have to say. For me, it is just too slow, but I have the feeling that that is the point.

On the plus side, it is a new idea as far as I know. And a good-sounding one. It is "pretty" for lack of a better work, and the music fits everything very well.

The only downside is it in too slow. I might enjoy it is it was speed up by 5x or 10x maybe, but again, it would destroy the point.

People say that this game needs more. I'm not so sure about that.

You give it more and you lose the essence of the game, it's simplistic grace. Yeah, it may be boring to those that want a challenge, but the game is just fun. It may not have emergent AI or different evolutionary trees, but even without all that, its still fun. The music and the art give this game a very relaxed feel, although there is an ever present undertone of "Eat or Be Eaten".

All in all, a very good game in its own right. And, who knows, in the next installment (if there is one), there may be harder enemies and evolutionary choices. For now, I'm going to enjoy this game for what it is.

I love it. Who thought that you'd switch sides?

This is an incredible game because, and only because, it is original and new.

There isn't enough gameplay to make me come back again and again and again, but it's got a nice, original style and it deserves some credit for that.

Innovative and hypnotic. This game is full of new ideas.

"make a great screen saver" :P I would not like that to be said about any of my games! ^ ^

I'd have to say it's beautiful, the music, the art, the way it controls but really thats all it is. Sure it has some depth, I had a good 10 minutes of fun, but really, as a game it's not a amazing as people have been saying. Of course this is all my opinion, and hey, it would make a great screen saver.

played hours on this game...
got lost in the idea and music, very addictive and fun should be played by all!

I quite enjoyed this game, simple but fun, a bit like Within a Deep Forest.

I must say I completely agree with the poster below me, Benjie Nelson. The art and sound really is terrific. However, I strongly believe that does not make a game. If that's what you want, watch a movie.
I'm sorry I have to be negative here... This is, however, my honest opinion. And if you read my profile "My thoughts on games" you'll see where I'm coming from.
This game has potential! Throw in some interesting upgrades, a tech tree, and more challenging AI and you've got yourself a game that blows nibbles out of the water! (pun intended :P)

I have to say I that I am underwhelmed. The sound and art is great. But the gameplay leaves me wanting. I have played it twice, once when someone mentioned it as somthing that was similar to a game I was working on (SlingStar) and again later when I heard about it's release for the PS3. The first time I swam around, ate some things and then swam straight to the boss, beat and then when I realized I was going to play the same game again, quit. There is not really any motivation to level, and the boss is really the only challenging aspect and you can beat him without any levels. As for adjusting its diffeculty, I challenge you to explain how being able to go to the next level without finishing the one you are in is any different from being able to rush through a fps instead of sniping each villan, or going beyond your level in an RPG.
I came back a second time after hearing of its newfound fortune and played all the way to the second boss (same as the first) only to find that when I beat it I was left in an empty pool.
There are redeeming qualities to this game: the art and sound are both of very high quality, but I really don't understand the hype about what is essentially a nibbles clone.

Summing it up in two words: simply fun

Excellent game, quite creative and relaxing. 4/5.

Fantastic game.

One of the great successes of casual flash games, as it made its way to a commercial release on PS3. Simple but extremely well-adjusted mechanics, simple but emotive graphics, great sound effects make this game a joy to play.

I just spent an hour playing this. It is a great idea for a game.

fl0w is an excellent example of how, even in the current climate of game design, you can have an extremely simple game that is accessible to someone who has never seen a computer before while at the same time maintaining a wealth of depth and mystery.

I played this game about 6 months ago and the DDE was incredible. After a while I purposely started playing differently just to see how the game reacted to the different styles. Very Cool.

I thought it was very good and original, but just a tad slow for my liking. 4/5

Very cool game.

I found this game through GGE and I have to say, It's brilliant. I was completely immersed. The music and sound effects are great and the gameplay is really addictive. This is one of the best flash games I've ever played. I only wish there were more stages to go through. There are really just the two and then it switches back and forth adding all your previous creatures as end bosses. Rated it 5.
