Game | Solipsism

[ryoko]

I've noticed a few gamedevs here. I'm really curious if anyone is building a solipsistic artifact. 

My question for everyone else, what do you imagine a game based on solipsism would be like? What kind of experiences do you wanna have?

Consciousness IS Consciousness. This isn't trivial. Consciousness cannot be explained in terms of any other thing. You have to grasp what Consciousness is directly. Not in terms of any other thing. That is the only way. If you try to use some other thing to explain Consciousness, you immediately screwed up.

The only way to understand Consciousness is to be conscious of yourself being conscious. You just sit and observe yourself being conscious. This is the last thing anyone wants to do, which is why no one understands Consciousness.

 

This snippet caught my eye.

Game is a potent medium of High Art. In order to seriously explore this idea, the idea of what a game is, has to die out. Most won't have a clue what they wanted until they get it. I invite you all to think not in terms of what you want inside the game. But rather purely on the basis of what you wanna feel. Be as abstract as you can.
