This is a very inspirational game. It’s infinite.
I find that it inspires everything, and then some.
Have you had this happen to you? Do share!

Atlas Foundation / Hello Games
These scientific developers released you
As part of their experimental augmentation
A foreign mouse delivered by air
Cage opened into dirty streets
Sirens disguised as distant thunder
Cornered against every NY alleyway
Thousands of eyes, Dozens of felines
A briefcase, black books, constellations
Chopsticks and bowls of ramen
A cryptic message from a friend
Echoing noodles and questions of god
Emily to Christina to Crimsontine
“I got your subliminal deja vu”
The masses could not understand
Their interrogation heated
Claws were revealed
A laptop caressed
And your only protection
Was a dog with an umbrella
Posing as a scientist
An illustrious disguise, indeed
Even in the face of 16
You declared that you lived
You survived… And the universe shuddered
I awoke to find that it was all fake
Mouse bitten strings, with a wink
We are but a dream, says Emily
We all live in the face of loop16
Backstory…

The infinite pen, begins where ink ends
And cuts a line so fine, time is devoid
Divine, are the satire, ink, raging pen
Thunderheads loom, lit on fire, consume
Through smoldering eyes, time is devoid
Divine, are echos, anomalies quite soon
Drops of ink, waters in the world’s eye
Signs of the times, when time is devoid
Divine, are peaceable, one love aligned
In the above poem, each line was limited to exactly 19 characters.
Also lots of rhythm, rhyme and unique structural schemes, as well.
Curious question … What does the above poem mean to YOU?
Written the day before v1.5 dropped.
It means…“Don’t touch the eeeeeggggssss!!”
But seriously, a poem like that needs some time to ruminate upon. It gives me that warm floaty nostalgic feeling, And I suppose that is a s close to “meaning” as I can get.
Thanks for sharing it with us.
