“这游戏让我突然琢磨,我是怎么判断一个超现实作品合不合自己口味的:超现实的重点不在超了多少,而是如何表现超,如何用实在的视听信息把无形的潜意识传达到位,这也是引导或者说铺垫。人人都是艺术家,不等于人人都是好艺术家,所以随便堆unity素材无意义。当然这里面还有变量,比如每个人所经现实不同,个人潜意识也就不同;每个人心里“好”的含义不同,对作品需求也就不同。最后判断标准就是,信自己,共情了就多看两眼。”

About This Game

Mango is a surrealist first-person adventure/puzzle game about art and derealization, featuring

  • * trippy, psychedelic visuals

  • * intense psychological and philosophical undertones

  • * fragmented, lore-rich storytelling

  • * experimental horror elements

  • * and last but not least, an overarching feeling of NEVER knowing what to expect.

It explores the idea of a mind losing its grasp with reality, as reality turns into a dream, and that dream turns into a nightmare. It has an off-kilter tone that can shift from overly chill to downright scary. Often it resembles an acid trip, or an interactive fever dream.

The game contains ~8 hours of gameplay with lots of freaky action, even more freaky fashion, deconstructed urban landscapes and/or dreamscapes, existential angst, questionable parenting, a bit of driving, and a fair load of straight-up madness.

It has been described as simultaneously dadaist and hyper-realist in nature, both alien and also deeply human, as well as the story of a life, filtered through the eyes of the mind.

Also, it has been described as WEIRD as hell ;)
