Some games, are not merely "games". When a game goes above the call of duty in what it needs to be, and strives for greater noble purpose, that is when art is made.
This game challenges your everyday perception about daily life. With thematics such as: what is the purpose of life, the destruction that capatilism wreaks upon not only our sense of community, but also individuality. Pulling inspiration from myths such as: sisyphus.
This game truly makes you feel like there is a flying machine above you. As for the machine represents the daily grind of our modern day life. The mountains in the distance represent, obiously, our need to escape from this prison of our own making, and wanting relief and a break.
To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand The Winged Flying Machine: invented by Leonardo Da Vinci and created in Blender. The humor is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also beejinxd's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into it's characterisation - the personal philosophy draws heavily fromNarodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these machines, to realize that they're not just devices- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislikeThe Winged Flying Machine: invented by Leonardo Da Vinci and created in Blender truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the message in beejinxd's existencial catchphrase "My plants are not behaving, only their shadows are. I do not know what happened.," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as beejinxd's genius unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools... how I pity them.
