While creating this game, I was also inspired by the music of Artur Kordas - Last Hideout Darkwood [https://youtu.be/FPlyCI0_ac4]. If you want, you can put this music in the background while you play!
Waking up from eternal sleep you find yourself in the winter desert, near a huge tunnel. Burning cold light or the unknown of darkness? The choice is obvious. No answers, your way you chose to find them within yourself.
The world is immersed in the hibernation of a nuclear winter. But is it so? What is really this phenomenon of the "White"? And why is it so serene, more destructive than "darkness"?
[Remark. This short story is an episode in which i reflect on the psychology of the white color and it's impact on a person. White is mainly interpreted as smt "bright" and "good", but here i outline its ambiguity. It's also a prototype of an episode from my project]

It is curious how the work was inspired by the sensations that the color white usually transmits, which are usually associated with positive things such as light or good things in general, but which can also evoke a feeling of isolation as it does in Omori's game that when the character is locked in his world, he finds himself in a white room and then gives rise to a large number of colors when he decides to go out and contact his friends.
It gave me the feeling of how weird people are sometimes isolated from the bulk of society, but they manage to get company from other weird people who share their tastes and qualities, someone alienated from society may be more receptive to accepting someone equally alienated.
It is interesting what was achieved just by thinking about the psychological influences of the color white, it is a small artistic piece more similar to a poem than anything else, but one that I have enjoyed while thinking about how cruel cold and indifference can be.
I greatly appreciate your review and your playthrough of the game, it means a lot to me! For me, comparing my game to a poem is a great compliment! And I'm glad I was able to convey in a few pixels my idea, which you considered.
