    I hadn't really though of games as a medium for delivering a deep message. Things such as themes,motifs or symbols weren't at the forefront of my mind when I played games.  
     
    Then I played Gravity Bone. (If you haven't then download it from here: http://www.blendogames.com/   , scroll down to the bottom of the page to find it)   
     
    I have never in my life played a game that left me thinking about it this much after playing it. So in a bid to set my mind at ease, what do you think it means? Overall or even certain individual pieces of it, or am I just talking out of a hole in my ass, finding deeper meaning in a game that is just that, a game?

    Well before I play it, it probably has something to do with boning in space.

    @GlenTennis:
    That's the thing! The name has (from what I can make out,) nothing to do with the game. This game confuzzles me in so many awesome ways!

    @RogueBadger: Played it this weekend and was blown away. Coming in with no expectations, it impacted me much the way you're describing. I'm going to forgo any attempts to attribute meaning though and perhaps that's the point. Something doesn't have to have meaning to be impactful and that's how I'm choosing to experience it.

    I dunno. I played it, and while I thought it was funny and had a lot of character, it just felt like a neat little experiment. However, everybody who has played it tells me it was some amazing, impact full experience. I would love for somebody to tell me why it was so good.

    Has anyone bought the sequel? Drawing a blank on the name. Is it worth the five bucks?
