This is indeed an awesome game , a game dosnt need a lose condition or a challenge or something , a game its about having fun and enjoying it , so this is a great game and its very relaxing no need to be saying stuff about dificculty or stuff like that , just enjoy solace and thats it.
When you called this an "interactive aesthetic experience" I totally lost interest, even if some of the game looks kind of fun. Jesus, you guys, you don't have to be pretentious about everything, you know.
@jclaine hah, no, it is not a game. It has no purpose, it is next to impossible to die, their is no objective to speak of and the movement is sluggish. The only time I died in the game was in the very beginning when the vague instructions made it sound like the bullets were powerups.
Funny how you can mention a mediocre game as if you placed it on a pedestal...
I assume your talking about COD as being mediocre. While I'm not a franchise fanboy, I do enjoy their single player campaigns but that's not what this discussion is about. It has a loose condition, it has a win condition. It also has a pretty obvious negative feed back loop where you loose weapons powerups as you get hit. This is very much a game my friend. Your problems seem to stem from balancing. I suggest you change the difficulty up to hard instead of normal.
An achievable game over screen = loose condition, period. Again your grip is with the balancing not whether or not this meets the criteria to be called a game. On that front you are flat out wrong, this is a game. You might not find the game fun (ie sluggish movement) but that doesn't affect the fact this is a game.
I personally enjoyed the game and really liked the idea.
This is a great game. But inthe credits it wouldn't let me escape, the Solace logo was cutoff so only half of it was showing, and the credits repeated. Is this just me? Anyways, it's really cool and fun.
Hahaha way to go digipen kids! I love you guys!

Don't be ignorant. Call Of Duty it is not, but it is a game

@jclaine Being pretty liberal with your words there...
also you're implying I didn't already try ramping up the difficulty.
