About Press Any Button
✦ AI summary
Play through an AI's homemade arcade game while uncovering his quirky story through witty dialogue and block-catching challenges that get progressively weirder. It's a charming blend of narrative adventure and arcade action that celebrates heartfelt creativity over polish, wrapped in existential themes about life, death, and finding meaning in unexpected places.
PRESS ANY BUTTON is an arcade-style game. It has a big emphasis on story, but it will also put your reflexes to a test!
The game introduces a weird but sweet character named A-Eye. He is an artificial intelligence created to process data for important scientific research. When he gets bored with this assignment, he decides to turn the research into a video game. The fact that he can't draw game assets or compose music and knows nothing about game design is not going to stop him.
A-Eye will be extremely glad if you become an impartial critic for him. Make your own opinion on the game he's been working on and find out his story full of life, death, rain, and dandelions.

What you should know before you play:
- It will take you about an hour to complete the game.
- The gameplay consists of dialogues with the main character and of playing the game he is creating.
- You will need to stop falling blocks. If a block goes beyond the bottom edge of the screen, you will lose a life.
- The previous sentence might not sound very exciting, but you should consider that the blocks are going to look different and have unique properties.
- And yes, the whole thing still might prove to be not very exciting. Be understanding, this is the very first game for A-Eye!
- But don't be patronizing, he doesn't like it.

It says the game is free but prepare to pay for it with your tears.14 found this helpful
I've had this game sitting in my library for years and finally decided to give it a try for the achievements. They're easy to get but otherwise it's just boring and a bad game. The game tries to be unique and artsy but it's neither. There's no menu at all, no way to turn down the loud ah music and no way to pause. It just keeps throwing a lot of random things at you that don't make any sense just for the sake of it. It wants to be deep and philosophical so bad but it just falls flat.1 found this helpful
