Poetic, simple, clearly short. I't doesn't build up into a really deep thought ending, but satisfying in a simple way.
Reviews for "Genesis"
Ummmm...
Interesting, but nothing else :I
People used to at least to at least pay a little attention to the 'game' part of 'art games'.
I guess the reactions to this run along the spectrum of people who don't understand what an art game wants to do and what this particular one is trying to accomplish to people who think of it as art plus meager interactivity and talk down to anyone who doesn't like it, particularly those on the opposite end of the spectrum.
It doesn't deserve to be savaged; for what it's trying to accomplish it works fine and I had no trouble figuring out the 'objectives' or completing the 'goals'. The problem is that what it's trying to accomplish is boring and trite and it barely qualifies as a game. Most art games on this site manage to at least have mechanics and challenge, and this has none of that.
It's not terrible, but it's questionable whether it should even be in the games section of Newgrounds. I liked the music, the voice, and the animation was fluid. But I think this is where we have to draw a line in the sand in terms of pretentious art games. We can't get any less 'game' than this without just dropping that word from the classification.
If you can't understand this, go read the book of Genesis from the Bible and then replay.
I don't know which Star I should give because well I don't understand the meaning in this game? I am sorry if I am too dumb to understand it. It would be cool if you could write what the meaning is. Thanks :D
