I don't know anything about this game, but I can already tell it's the worst thing ever.

Starseed Pilgrim

About the Game
Starseed Pilgrim is a game about tending a symphonic garden, exploring space, and embracing fate.

You are a gardener, tending to empty noise and empty space to fill them both with colour.
You are a refugee, building your own world away from the spreading darkness.
You are an explorer, discovering new places, new rules, and new fascinations.

The Universe Is Bigger Than You Know.

Reviews

"Advice for playing Starseed Pilgrim: As long as you still have questions, continue."
– Jonathan Blow

"Unfortunately, you cannot talk about Starseed Pilgrim, because that would spoil it for so many others. There’s unwritten rules at play. But it’s so open to discussion between two or more journeyers who find themselves at similar junctions."
– Indie Statik

"It’s OK to feel lost, it seems to suggest, because it’s the only way to feel the intoxicating effect of discovery. I became so angry with Starseed Pilgrim because it purposely allows you, encourages you even, to feel lost.
– Game Church

I can't tell if this is a real game or a joke to make fun of arty games

I'm sorry that a game is 2deep4u. Maybe you should go back to your Hollywood shootbangs.

Quote from: Rock, Paper, Shotgun

The game isn’t new, but we’ve stumbled our way past it like the blundering fools we are. Starseed Pilgrim is a puzzle game that offers you a peculiar set of abilities, and no instructions. No guidance how to use the “seeds” you can plant to grow variously coloured blocks, nor any guidance as to what you’re supposed to be doing with them. Finding out is the point of the game. I failed at this game.

lol

You guys just can't appreciate its indie genius.

So of course I suspected joe of buying it anyway, given that he has over TWO AND A HALF THOUSAND STEAM GAMES

of course when i searched his game list for 'star' i got 28 hits

stunningly though he does not yet appear to own it! Thus making this truly thread-worthy

Sounds utterly boring.

Games are always self-explanatory to Jonathan Blow. This official walkthrough pissed me off:

Mount & Blade and Arma are aspie as fuck, and I say that as a huge Warband fan. Something about those games make the fucktards wet.

It's the combination of ugly graphics and needlessly complex gameplay.

At my job, we've (my department, not myself in specific) actually used Arma a bit for military simulations.

mjemirzian · « **Reply #19 on:** April 18, 2013, 12:04:15 PM »

Arma doesn't seem like that kind of game to me. DayZ does attract script kiddies and the CoD crowd, though.

Rufus · « **Reply #20 on:** April 18, 2013, 02:02:46 PM »

Arma can look pretty entertaining:

I always thought the most spergtastic game ever would be if dwarf fortress and pokemon had a baby.

Don Flamenco · « **Reply #23 on:** April 20, 2013, 04:51:37 PM »

how about EVE Online? pretty spergy

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #24 on:** April 20, 2013, 04:58:27 PM »

Actually what I meant what I posted this was "Most hipsterish game developed by spergs ever", not "Most spergish game for spergs ever". I apologize for the mix-up.

Trent Dole · « **Reply #25 on:** April 20, 2013, 07:31:00 PM »

If for spergs I'd say Minecraft, if by spergs maybe Fez or Braid?

Oh God I fucking love Euro Jank so much. I even downloaded and played Man Of Prey, otherwise known as Slav Sim. It was glorious but buggy as hell, and I had to use the fan patch that translates the game (poorly) to English.

7.62 mm owned as well, when it played properly. Which following the fine Euro tradition was pretty much never.

Rahxephon91 · « **Reply #27 on:** April 21, 2013, 02:01:49 PM »

Those ArmA videos look great. I wish I could play it, but it does seem like it would be very complex.
