I found the project itself to be very interesting. I like it a lot when a genre is recontextualized. The only note is related to the relationship between rhythm and readability: depending on personal skill there may be moments in which you don't hit a green brick for a while or you take a couple of them in a row. In the first case, given the structure of the sentences and the attention paid to the gameplay part, there is the risk of losing the thread of the discussion. In the second case, you may lose a sentence because you don't have enough time to read it, as it's superimposed on the next one. I guess it's not easy to calibrate such a thing but it's a nice project and that's why I'm sure it deserves that little extra attention.

Easy to understand gameplay, and a powerful message (and I love how the gameplay perfectly fits the message!) Love it!

WHY DIDN'T I think about Breakout in an irregular layout? Super cool idea. I wasn't able to read the dialogs in the later levels because I was staring at the little white ball. Maybe  a VO can help with this.

Developer

Thank you I was proud of figuring out I could use breakout this way. And thanks for the feedback with the dialog!

Very artistic! The game was satisfying but not super involved, but great use of not going anywhere.

Artistic's what I aim for!

That was really interesting. I really liked the atmosphere created by the sound design and the clean visuals. But it was a bit difficult for me to focus on the text, since the bouncy ball always grabbed my attention away from it. Maybe it would work well with a voice-over narration? Anyway, great job!

Developer

Thank you! And good to know I hadn't considered a voice over narration!
