the witness
made with @nex3's grid generator
I played The Witness to completion for the first time. it was better than I expected it to be, but still not very good. it's so pretty. it's gorgeous. I long to make a game that looks and feels like exploring this place. but it is hollow. it is a quarry full of rocks you must beat your head against, and your prize for breaking a rock is another rock. it has so much to say and none of it means anything. the greatest moment of it was when a tarkovsky clip started playing, because I was reminded of works of art that actually do and say things. I am so, so glad I'm done playing it.
