I don't think there are enough words in the dictionary to describe the way I felt when I read the description of this game, so I will try to remain concise in order to only convey the strongest emotions I felt.
Never before had I seen someone devote such effort to develop their thought process to the extent seen in the artistic statement. Truly, I could feel the pride and the passion oozing from the developper's soul as they recounted the way they felt about a subject as complex as heterosexuality and the particular intricacies of game making and the concepts it can evoke both objectively and (most importantly) subjectively. The dedication to the art of the craft was palpable when the essay transported us within the mind of the developper, showing us every minute aspects of reflexion and decision that had to be made in order to come up with the idea of the game, the various sources of inspirations and the social commentary that naturally could be made from such notions, all the while not excluding anyone's perspective on the matter by rendering the game as generic as possible. In this moment I understood that my perspective of the game was initially skewed by my previous gaming experiences and that I might have lacked critical introspection upon playing the game the first time. I realized that I had to shift my expectations and use my imagination to see the various stories that were actually told by this barely 30 seconds game and finally see, with brand new eyes, the true genius of the game.
If this is satire, it's very good. The 11pt justified text like a school essay for a game description is a really funny touch. So is the overly refined diction for 3 paragraphs for a game that is 2 minutes long (not to say an art game can't do a lot in 2 minutes, see The Best Amendment by Molleindustria). Good job, whether you meant it or not.
I'm confused, I'm guessing the two big triangles are a man and woman, they have kids, and then one of them dies, but what does this have to do with heterosexuality? I'm pretty sure having kids and dying is pretty universal. I'm like 40% sure this is satire, but with the amount of things I've seen on the internet I'm having trouble coming to a conclusion.
i think this is too smart for me. i find another triangle and then when i walk through it theres a littler one and they start following me, a few seconds later the other big one dies and the game is over. i mean thats a story i suppose but im not sure what im supposed to feel about it or how im supposed to be empathetic about it.
Know what? As a Christian heterosexual, I respect this! I've been saying for years we need to be learning from each other rather than fighting against ourselves. we're all human and there's bigger problems in the world than who does what with who's what!
It is easy in 2025 to dismiss Ms. Pac-Man, but as many contend, she helped pave the way for other oblate spheroid sex symbols in mainstream culture-- like Ms. Green M&M.

FAG GAME!!! 🗣️🗣️🗣️
holy shit...this is amazing...you are an artist...this is pure art everything about it
I think I've lost the ability to differentiate between shitposting and art. Maybe the two were one and the same all along!
Well, what can I say.

That being said, the game is still shit, though.
lol. That was thoughtful and I think does some merit to the games creator and it’s intention.
thank you for explaining heterosexuality to me. I did not know that when heterosexuals fornicate their bodies form an uppercase I.
as a heterosexual, i feel a profound connection to these triangles
Fag game
take that ebert
I found myself experiencing something called "procedural rhetoric" through the action of penetrating empty space in this game

That was an amazing experience, 10/1

🙏
rip
finally am able to experience what it's like to be heterosexual, thank you
My pleasure.
my wife died
This, you have inferred from a gray triangle of no more than 20 pixels! Isn't that interesting?
Might one be similarly empathetic with people struggling with homosexuality if the adult characters were identical and children did not appear?
Interesting proffer! One would have to find out...
i feel so much wiser after having experienced such an incredible and insightful story.
thank you.
You're welcome.
truly insightful. it made me feel closer to those struggling with feelings of heterosexuality. thank you for making this
My pleasure!
the chalice and the wine...
And the spear! Don't forget the spear!
