youtube info wrote:About the video: Some games are hard to describe - The Void is a good example. Is it a shooter? An adventure? Is it a game at all or is it somekind of modern art? The russian project is like a strange picture, bizarre, hard to understand, a strange journey into the human after-death-experience. You find yourself dead, only your soul is left in the cold and frightening void, a sphere somewhere between life and death. Youll see some typical scenes in the video.

Game info: The Void is played from a first-person perspective. All game actions are done by drawing glyphs on screen using the mouse. When drawing a glyph, time slows down to allow the player to carefully draw it. Typical game actions are talking to NPCs, fighting predators or Brothers, collecting plants and growing gardens. Collected Lympha of color cannot be used directly to draw and must be processed in the hero's Hearts first into Nerva. The color inside Hearts also acts as the hero's health and character stats. There are 7 colors at the player's disposal — Silver, Gold, Violet, Azure, Crimson, Amber and Emerald - each one having its own properties while inside the players hearts and how they affect the void when used; for example, Emerald soften the blows from the predators and brothers while inside you, but when used in the void it incites jealousy in the Brothers, making them more prompt to rip hearts you have open in the Sisters.


jesus jones this looks awesome, is it art or is it a game? yes.
