It's the walking simulator that's going to make Dear Esther look like Dear Who? and Gone Home look like Gone Where?

Incorrect. It is twice as expensive.

The challenge was extremely cool. Definitely one of my favorite parts of the game, even though it involved tetromino panels, which are the kind I have the second-hardest time with. (only second to the sound puzzles.)

nearly done with the game now... not far to go, I think.

hell no. gently caress that environmental puzzle poo poo. the normal puzzles were all quite good though.

these obelisks are absolutely insane. jonathan blow is a madman.

I doubt I have the stamina to beat all of them (I really just want to find the use of the last hidden clue sheet, at this point), but man. a puzzle where you have to walk out to the edge of the draw distance, so that the LOD decreases and a circle becomes pure yellow? something else...

I do not have the ability to predict the future. It doesn't matter anyway because time is not a linear thing that flows from past to future. Everything that could possibly happen already exists, you just don't see it right now. So there is not too much of a reason to get antsy about it.

He said he wanted to make this "A game for people who read Gravity's Rainbow" and I was filled with the desire to play a game for people who want to brutally murder Jonathan Blow.

there's several of these. two of them talk about how great science is. one of them has the equivalent of one of braid's optional 'star' puzzles, where you have to click on something at the start of a recording of an hour-long GDC presentation, and then click once more near the end. if you just alt-tab out for the entire thing, you'll miss the window for the second click and have to do the whole thing over again.

i love jonathan blow
