Decent, but I understood the point you were making quickly. It takes too long to get to the end screen message. I would shorten this 'not-game' down a bit unless you added few more interesting pieces.

The meta-game reason for it aside; it does have nice music and visuals, but you can't use 'minimalist' as an excuse for not having any real content. There'd be many ways to take some time and actually give it a point beyond the meta-game point to it. Games can have meanings and messages beyond just being a 'game,' but a game must have some sort of rules and goals to it to fulfill its primary purpose as a game. Without that, it doesn't matter the reasoning or point to it, it'll just be dull.

At first, I avoided the squares.
After I saw them fade, I hunted them down to force them to flee and disappear.
I felt nothing for the squares... I actually felt happy when they disappeared!
Is this because I am introverted?

This isn't so much "Loneliness" as it "Man with a Gun". No congregations of people actively stop what they're doing to move away from you because you're simply "lonely".

Not an extremely bad game, and it really gets the message through to you before you read the ending, once again nice game. 4 stars

I don't mind quick 'games' that are essentially a simple point, but I think either the music was repetitive or there's something off about the sound. For the social commentary, I think We Become What We Behold was clearer and managed to put its components together better.

Why would you think that making a 'game' of hopelessness for children who complain about loneliness would be helpful?

It might also be that i am an mostly emotionless academic who seeks out knowledge and education above most else. Groups mean Skiving off. So Groups are Bad!
