Gameplay

The player is invited to control a creature that looks like a jellyfish, which moves through the depths of space and pollinates nests, from which new small jellyfish will later appear. The task of the player: to pass one by one 80 levels in 4 fantastic worlds and save your appearance. In the course of the passage in front of the player opens a lot of psychedelic landscapes. At the same time, only one button is used to control the game [2] .
Management mechanics resembles the classic mobile game - Angry Birds . The player launches shells of pollen from a jellyfish in a fixed position, after which it regulates the trajectory of their movement. If the player manages to launch the projectile correctly, a jellyfish cub will be formed in its place [3] .

Monetization

The cost of the game was relatively low - £ 6.99. However, due to circumstances, the sales of the game did not reach the expected level and did not bring predictable dividends to the developers. In order to compensate for the financial failure of the project, the developers came up with a peculiar emotional monetization scheme - Art-to-Play. Its essence lies in the fact that everyone, instead of paying money for a game, can get it for free. However, for this, the player must draw a picture (artwork) based on the game, spending at least half an hour to create it, and then send the work to the developers. Thus, the developers deliberately abandoned part of the financial profits in favor of emotional satisfaction caused by the lively, creative response of the players [4] .
