Games like this that try to justify them being simplistic with a "Hidden meaning" are stupid. This is a website for GAMES. Not hipster art.

Interesting. There is something strangely compelling about a game that cannot be won; especially one as simple as this. Great message. Some people need to understand that interactive experiences take different forms, and any of them can be valuable. 5/5

Was I the only one who clicked on this game because of a single thought
"Oh look a game called Loneliness. Might as well play it since the name describes me.."

Near the end of this game there were squares by themselves yet they still run away. They would rather play by themselves than with me

I imagined I was the alpha square of my territory, driving away competing squares. By the end, I was quite pleased with my handiwork! Guess this game is a matter of perspective.

Today, a bunch of pixels arranged to look like random squares in a screen punched me in the face and made me think about myself and my life.
I dare you, I double dare you to play this and keep believing games are not art.

I kept trying to get closer and closer to the other boxes/people. I ended up giving up and avoiding them. I just drove the boxes/people away.

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".

This game actually brought me to tears. I've been going through an odd time recently trying to learn about myself (coming out of a brief time when I kind of forgot). I, like many of you probably did, came here through Extra Credits of Youtube. I thought as I started the game, "I don't really experience things. This game does not make me feel lonely like it should." But as I played not understanding what to do and feeling awkward, I decided to run with the pixels as they dispersed. I had fun, running through the game. I wondered why and realized what I was finding so much joy in all of a sudden: I liked making them move. That was all. I had almost forgotten that part of myself. Thank you.

This is what this is? Really? I was expecting more. This didn't tell me much at all. The music drones and gets annoying quickly, the message is preachy, and the game is either way too pretentious or not trying hard enough to get the message across.
