Eo: The Sequel! Matt Thorson // 00:59
Or maybe remake is more appropriate?

Whatever.  Eo is back, and I've taken up stating the obvious.

Untitled still isn't done (see?), but is growing larger by the day.  In truth, it has morphed into one giant (giant in the way you would say "all-encompassing") metaphor for certain aspects of existance.  You'll see when you play it.  Actually, you probably won't see, because it is so vague as to no longer be worth the effort of seeing, so I'll explain!  Sort of.

I won't spell it out for you, eliminating the possibility of interpreting the game's events in such a way to benefit your life, but the areas and objectives of the game are not as entirely random as they appear.  Well, some are.  I don't have some grand Tool-esque scheme - my scheme is considerably less grand and involves far less wisdom.  It is simply a commentary on the way the world works, dealing mostly with the themes of salvation and conformity.

I have alot to say on those subjects, but can never organize it into something so bold as, say, an essay.  Rather, I prefer to wrap them in MS Paint graphics and old-school platforming gameplay, then disguise the message itself until it is so fuzzy no one could ever possibly notice it unless specifically told, and even then could never derive any kind of lesson from it.

The simple fact is I don't know what I'm saying.  So Untitled's theme can be more clearly defined as confusion about salvation and conformity.  Though I suppose it could be even better defined as an egg doing random crap.

I really cant wait for the completion of this game. I like how you put that "an egg doing random crap" :D

The direction your taking the game and the simplicity in what your trying to convey is great. This very well could be one of the most inspirational creations Ive ever played just because of its shear meaning of not having a meaning.

Cant wait!

Thanks.  It really is a reflection on my current attitude - I feel very aimless but at the same time very inspired in everything I've done lately.  Just sorta stumbling through life with all these wierd ideas in my head.

Man, that's a great game.  I love the graphics.  I don't know why.  That's the same reason I love CoolMoose's games.  I love the MS paint feel. =D  



Anyway, good job.  Keep on working.

I can't wait either. But how in the world did you came upon the magnificent idea of an EGG?!?!



It is a neat game.



I must say you're becoming more philosophic every day. Is that because you're making this game? :D
