Each exhale translates into a floating movement, allowing for serene exploration within the virtual realm.
Stunning breathing meditation. Give this a try! This is the first app I've found where I felt real benefits from the exercise. I felt noticeably more relaxed after just 5 minutes of deep breathing. Stunning visuals and experience!
So good !!! Really surprised i liked this as thought it would be too boring for my busy brain but I love it, and it feels really finely tuned so when you breath out reaaaaaally slowly you move more. It’s great thanks for making it !
Great VR Meditation App. I've been using VR since 2016 and I attempt to try every meditation app for Quest and PCVR. I meditate daily and although I'm tolerant of apps that are rough around the edges I'm still fairly critical.
Flowborne does an exceptional job helping you focus on your breath. It employs a novel breathing mechanic that forces you to breathe in a specific way in order to progress through a rendered landscape. The graphics are artful enough to promote a relaxing experience, but simple and sparse enough to ignore if you happen to bliss out. Neither the graphics or the sound design competes with the mechanic, thereby allowing you to focus on your breath to maximum benefit.
And it's free. Flowborne has an abundance of content for you to return to if you enjoy the experience. They're giving away more content than they should if they hope to one day monetize the app IMHO. It's great. Grab it and use it.
Truly amazing and I totally love it. I just got this app and tried my first 2 sessions on top of the tutorial which was extremely helpful in introducing how this app works and I’m already blown away on how amazingly beautiful, calming and relaxing everything is designed and put together. Often you need to spend more time playing a game, but this one is love at first try for me because the environment and music are extremely calming that for that alone deserved the ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ rating that I gave it.
Can it be improved? Of course it can and while playing it there’s some that came to mind that I decided to stop playing and write this review before getting lost in the game. I don’t meditate regularly which I know I should and in the past I had tried a few meditation apps on my phone and what I found on those app that was extremely beneficial and helpful was the guided meditation to tell you when to breath in and breath out so that you can get the most out of the exercise rather than just breathing in and out without any direction whatsoever which I found myself doing while playing the game knowing that the longer I breath out the more I move forward which I know is not exactly the goal of this meditation app but I’m not sure if it’s human nature or just me to want to move forward as fast as I can to see the end. Which is really cool when you get to the end, but as calming and relaxing the environment and music are I’m missing the biggest benefit of the meditation and that’s the meditation itself because I’m too focused on just breathing in and out to continue moving forward and that’s why during the meditation I kept wishing if only there’s a subtle cue to tell you when to breath in and when to breath out that’ll be so perfect so that I won’t be taking any unnecessary more breathing or taking longer breathing in or out if there’s something to guide me in knowing when to take them and how long to get the most benefit of the meditation exercise to help those who are like me who are not well versed in meditation. Maybe even just add a level so beginners get guided meditations while experts can drive their own meditation since they’re already in control of their breathing. Aside from the guided breathing there’s one more thing that I’ve observed that can be somewhat distracting and that’s the continuous vibration from the controller which isn’t too bad but noticeable given that you’re in meditative state. Although I love the controllers vibrating in almost every other game, I find it quite distracting during meditation and I’m wondering if there’s any way to turn that off or if that’s what’s being used to signal the app when you’re breathing in and out and if it’s not used for that purpose I wish there’s an option to turn it off because it’s hard to ignore your controller vibrating as subtle as it is on your belly unless it’s being used to signal when to breath in and out like some meditation apps that I tried on my phone before then that would be completely acceptable but maybe change the vibration a bit to be more relaxing in a fluid motion so that it’s not as distracting. Again, these are just suggestions that I thought of while trying it out and wished these options were available to make this meditation even more epic since like I said, I already love this meditation app after only trying 2 complete sessions.
A big shout out to the devs who really did a phenomenal job in putting this app together and making it available for free for everybody to enjoy. Thank you so much for all your hard work and exceptional creativity this is truly an amazing experience… THANK YOU… THANK YOU… THANK YOU… for this amazing meditation app and I’m truly looking forward to all the benefits this app has to offer for my well-being. 🥂
Works well. The breathing mechanism works mostly as intended with only a few minor hiccups. I don't think it helped much with my meditation but the visuals were very pretty.
Awesome. Enjoyed this one a lot. Especially the cave adventure. The music and environment was calming and peaceful. I was at first skeptical of purchasing because smooth motion always makes me nauseous and have avoided any apps that has smooth motions. But I was pleasantly surprised that I did not get motion sickness from this app. I am also grateful that the developers implemented snap turnings instead of smooth turnings. Smooth turnings are the worst as it immediately makes me sick much faster than forward motion. Thanks so much for the snap turnings. I hope all developers would be as considerate as this one in trying to reduce motion sickness.
それはやめてくれ。 糞ストーリーをゲームに戻してください。もしあなたがストーリーライターを失って、それが理由でやめてしまったのなら、私のTwitch Stream at GeesePGZを訪れて、私に囁きを残してください。 私はストーリーを書くのが得意です。というのも、ショートストーリーの先生が、私が100%自分で書いたにもかかわらず、他の人が書いた本から自分のストーリーを盗んだと確信していたからなのです。そのクラスには二度と戻りませんでした。 幸い6時間目だったので、その年は早々に学校を去りました。
そのストーリーはどうですか?

What Happened to the Original Storyline?. Wasn't there a mystery of some woman and I needed to find messages along the way with hints? I specifically remember that when I played the demo. I don't mind that you guys decided to turn this into a meditation only app and take out the "Quest / Storyline" sort of other than in this day and age we have a thing called OPTIONS.
You KEEP the story mode and you also have a meditation only mode and let the people decide. I feel like something I really liked about the original concept which made me come back and buy the game was taken from me. Kind of like how Trader Joe's used to sell this Blood Orange Juice - There was NOTHING like it. AMAZING! And then one day it was gone. They stopped selling it.
Don't do that. Release the friggen story back into the game. If you lost your story writer and that's why you stopped, visit my Twitch Stream at GeesePGZ and leave me a whisper and I'll be happy to help you out. I am great at writing stories. I got a ZERO for Plagerism back when I was in like 10th grade because the Short Stories teacher was CONVINCED that I stole my story out of a book someone else wrote even though 100% I wrote it myself. I never went back to that class. Luckily it was 6th hour so I just left school early that year.
My favorite app for meditation. I really like Flowborne; it's my favorite app for meditation. But I miss two things: 1. The option to push the trigger to stop the advance, as existed in the demo version. 2. I think there are too many forms/entities popping up during journeys; I would like to have the possibility to select how many forms/entities I want to appear: "none", "a few" or "many" as now.
