Take a breath. Think. Manipulate the blocks. Build your perfect own loop. Enjoy your victory, it's satisfying to look at. "Meaningless" (originally "An Oddly Satisfying Game") is a hypnotizing puzzle game for PC imagined during the Ludum Dare 49.
Inspired by Monument Valley art, it’s a minimalist 3D isometric game.
To make it simple: one level, one puzzle, one frame.
A level is divided into two parts.
The first one: move the blocks to let the ball reach the finishing line. When the ball is rolling, all interactions with blocks are recorded.
The second one: if the ball reaches the finishing line, the entire recorded loop is replayed endlessly. Enjoy what you made and play with the recorded loop like a VHS.
The experience is inspired by the satisfying videos on YouTube or TikTok.
It’s the pleasure to watch a smooth and repetitive process without any flaws.
It seems easy, it’s hypnotizing and satisfying.
