i often see the "ooga booga number go up" line-of-thinking used as a criticism against idle/incremental games, being that they often have the same sense of purposeless existence, apart from players garnering artificial and addictive stimulation. i have never seen that line-of-thinking be used for tower stacking, though. i like the bleakness and emptiness of the game, and while i question its effectiveness as a metaphor on capitalism, i like its uniqueness.
All things considered, the physics and imagination of this one are on point, and I look at it more as an artistic tool. I feel like I created a Jean-Michel Basquiat-like masterpiece with my final creation:
The triangle represents the three contrary points of existence: survival, purpose, and security. The objects within are the material objects representing the regularities of our lives, undeterred by our suffering. The lack of gravity is our wandering thoughts, floating through the space-time continuum.
Thank you for helping me achieve this self-realization. #CommunismIsTheCure
generated much revenue for the shareholders with this one
10/10 communism is when no tower of discarded consumer products
I feel like I'm better at stacking things now - I should help someone move and make use of these new skills :P
I love how both our submissions were stacking tower game with subtle commentary on society (yours not soo subtle).
Great game, I love how empty it feels.
