Seems like parts or the level are loaded in based on where you are in the level. Just like most any other game. I don't understand why Ryan and Patrick are so perplexed.

Is it even possible to watch a Quick Look of a puzzle game and not spend the whole video clenching up internally and saying "Wait! Go look at the thing!" to yourself?

Man, this looks visually similar to a game I was working on in UE... Though the gameplay is completely different.

I watched about 4 minutes of this and turned it off, because I knew I had to get it.

This game looks great, a worthy winner of the unreal engine competition, the idea is very original and while i have my theories i am also completely stumped on how these guys are doing this, its like magic and thats exactly why i began enjoying videogames in the first place.

I watched ten minutes then proceeded to buy it. Or did I watch ten minutes because I already bought it and completed it? Really just depends on your perception. Or does it?

It's just portals. But it's fucking inventive and creative and impressive. Art style is second to none

This game reminds me of some acid trips I've had. Very psychedelic.

Because there isn't an answer. It hasn't been announced I don't think but there isn't any reason why it wouldn't eventually come to mac.

This game looks neat, but it's not very much fun to watch.

I don't know how much longer I can handle all this not having a decent PC to play everything interesting that has come out in the last 4 years or so.

Heh. I meant more like when it is on sale for $5. That's a discount point at which I can accept torturing myself.

However, @swoxx apparently saw my post, because he sent me a copy of the game shortly after. I've only had a chance to play for just under an hour so far, but it's . . . beautiful and . . . god damn difficult. After about ten or fifteen minutes, you've had enough "whoa, holy shit that's a thing that can happen?!" to know to always be looking out for things . . . but then you're stuck trying to find the right things so you aren't going in circles for fifteen minutes.

It's really a ridiculously clever (and frustrating) game. It hurts my brain even more to imagine how you would design it.

worth more than $5 then

Just picked this up in a steam sale. The play through makes me a little weary of starting.

Ooh, uh... this fucking game is a chore to look at. Anything interesting it's doing is 100% offset by the decision to make it BLINDING WHITE everywhere. Whoever this guy is, apparently he's blind, because this is NOT what you're supposed to do with a visual style. Be minimalist, fine; just don't use so much fucking WHITE. Shit.
