okay so

"virtual nature walk" BUT STAY WITH ME HERE

the thing is it's an EXTRAORDINARY nature walk: tons of procedurally generated content, birds engaging in all forms of bird behaviors, wild animals that avoid the player but can be snuck up closer to, etc.

a procedurally generated path, a procedurally generated forest that goes in all directions if you go OFF the path (because you COULD do that, you could make it so it will make more forest until you run out of RAM)

@sydneyfalk what about Disney Princess Simulator:

Animals are actually friendly as long as you don't make super sudden movements. Birds will come to your hand, you can pet raccoons and deer, and more!

@vahnj

thinking this would be an option in the game -- you can turn on "no attacks" and nothing will attack you

you already can't attack anything anyway, you're armed with a camera and hiking boots

@sydneyfalk hmm isn't there a roguelite survival game like this about surviving the winter? lower difficulties make the animals not attack you

@vahnj

it's not survival tho

it's literally "a nature walk"

you don't get hungry, you don't get cold (although maybe you can 'put on' things like coats and pullovers because IRL that'd be a thing you do in colder weather)

so, backpack, camera

maybe some exceedingly silly but tricky sequences for "pulling on a sweater" and some easier ones for stuff like "putting on gloves"
