Blank Canvas (2026)

Fun concept, I enjoyed discovering the landscape. That being said, this took under 30 minutes to complete all 2 levels and my eyes/clicker fingers are glad it only took that long. The colors and painterly texture is very harsh on the eyes and the auto paint is very slow, so you basically are furiously clicking right mouse button the whole time. It also feels much more like a proof of concept than a full game, which is fine as it's free. However the dev says you get to "Find the unwritten story left behind" which seems pretty misleading for a game with zero narrative or secrets. Actually, most of the game's description seems to imply much more content than there really is. If the game eventually gets a storyline, maybe a few secrets to find, and makes it easier on the eyes, then I would recommend this. As it is, I don't think I can.

The mechanic is interesting and appealing. Would love to see similar mechanics more exploration games. With that said I have two main issues: - I'm playing it at 15fps, which according to the recommended specs I would have enough VRAM to run it but I was at full throttle even just in the room - It's hard to understand if something is interactable or not. I know it's the point of the game to "find your way" but understanding what's going on was hard, maybe too hard for something tagged as "relaxing". Even though, I enjoyed the little time I've spent with it. Thanks

Really original game. I was surprised how nice it was. Felt lil bit like House Flipper.. with all that wide swiping across surfaces with paint roller. Feels good type game. At first, i couldn't find interactables, but second run did it. Belive.

cute little perspective game, i hope they add more levels

This is a good concept. The execution is wonderful. I can definitely feel like there's a small sense of dread but I think it's mostly due to the exploration of places with signs of life but no proof of life. A liminal space, if you will. It is short but it's a good experience. Will run on linux but gets a little toasty.

Brief but enjoyable freebie experience
