The game's story centers on Tara, a sickly girl relocating to a farm, offering an intriguing premise reminiscent of titles like Harvest Moon. While some find the narrative unique and surprisingly strong for a platformer, others feel the storytelling is hindered by awkward presentation and confusing execution. Overall, the story is appreciated for its charm and potential, despite mixed delivery.
“The story of the game revolves around a young girl named Tara, who moves from the city to the farm because she has asthma and is generally a sickly girl.”
“It gives you a sense of where the character is coming from, where the story can possibly go from there.”
“Great storyline... you don't expect much story from platformers, but this game surprised with its storyline.”
“Each story moment is told by a pause and a cut scene where you press a button to go through the dialogue of these incredibly atrocious looking animals.”
“It tries to convey a story, but it doesn’t.”
“The story of Bird of Light may be a bit confusing.”
