Este juego indie artístico minimalista explora una emoción central mediante una breve experiencia de exploración top-down. Los jugadores recorren un paisaje plano solo con controles de movimiento, observando otros cuadrados que generan patrones sociales metafóricos a través de sus trayectorias. Concluye en apenas minutos, fiel a sus orígenes en Flash de 2010 en esta edición para PC del 10º aniversario.
Esta simulación RPG casual fusiona elementos de aventura con pura observación, recurriendo a mecánicas simples para evocar el aislamiento. Perfecto para quienes buscan sesiones rápidas y experimentales que inviten a la reflexión sin controles complejos. Créditos para el creador Jordan Magnuson y el compositor Kevin MacLeod.
An experimental, minimalistic art game that explores a single emotion and takes only a few minutes to play through. Loneliness is a simple top-down exploration game where the only available input is movement. Explore a flat landscape populated by other squares that engage in various social behaviors represented metaphorically through patterns of their own simple movement.
Loneliness was originally released as a Flash game in 2010. It was featured prominently by Extra Credits (Season 4, Episode 3: Mechanics as Metaphor) and others, and received a variety of accolades, including being nominated for the Extra Credits Innovation Awards. Other people said the game was the worst thing they'd ever played--but at least it wasn't on Steam.
This is a 10th anniversary release that is true to the original game, except that the end screen has been notably removed, as described at the game's home page. The original version of the game is available on Steam as part of The Gametrekking Omnibus.
