This game is more a kind of toy than a true game. It's an experience.
What is minimalism? Franck Stella, a minimalist artist, was interested in the way that his brush followed on the paper. He said that those ways only bring you to some paint. Nothing more.
Minimalism is focused on the essential, without any artifices.
What could be minimalism in video game? Something without graphics, maybe something with an apparent code. Something that you should have to find by yourself, like the brush follows his way on the paper.
That's why I made a game like this one.
Try to find controls by yourself, experimente it. Think about it. Watch it. Live it like a minimalist art : what are you really doing? What are you really doing in video games, actually?
