Kalimba Nature Walk

Interactive Album Experience · Released 2022

“Kalimba Nature Walk” is a 16-bit style music-based video game inspired by the calming aesthetic of SNES-era RPGs like EarthBound and Secret of Mana. Part virtual nature walk, part interactive album, this short-form game invites you to explore lush digital landscapes while solving light puzzles and uncovering trivia related to the music.

As you walk through the game, you’ll hear the entire Kalimba Nature Walk album; a series of short, intentionally crafted tracks designed to sync perfectly with your in-game experience. It’s retro, ironic, and completely relaxing.
