About The Dot

Here we go again. You just wanted to create what has never been done before, and what's left is a stream of tiny little games that go in all sorts of directions. It's a pity because you never wanted to show them to people, but oops… now it’s too late

I’m releasing this collection of games
so that you may start talking to me again

Features!

  • 1 catastrophically thicc pigeon
  • One billion trillion folders
  • Gameplay and puzzles that may go too far beyond the game window
  • I think I found a second pigeon
  • this guy is just too annoying ^


Some features of The Dot are not typical of games in general
Don't be alarmed. It's all part of the game

Hi. I never write Steam reviews. This game is going to change that, and I am going to need to dish out at least 10 positive reviews to tip my karmic scales to neutral after what I have to say about this game. Before I start, I want to write a brief foreword to the lead developer. Viktor - there is some very cool potential in here, mostly in assets/art and a little bit of gameplay. I took your words to the player during the game at face value - so, if you are as scared and fragile as you portray yourself in the game to be, please do not read any further and just keep doing your thing. Spoilers for the game ahead. TL;DR - this is not worth any amount of money or time, move on. Google "games that are meta" and play the top results instead to enjoy a much better experience. TW - suicide and violence. The Dot is less of a game and more of an experience, consisting in no small part of traversing directories on your computer, interacting with various file types including images, videos, text notes, and .EXEs. There is an overarching metanarrative present, and there is a written out conclusion to that narrative (which I will get to later). Because of this, I believe that people are quick…

I followed this game from back when it was called "Dandelion", you can still find the original steam game page. This may not seem valid considering the new information and screen grabs provided by devs but this was not the game I was hyped up to play. In all honesty I was more annoyed trying to actually figure out if that game was going to come along, so I leave it simply that if you ended up here, thinking that this was going to be the "Dandelion" game you'd seen. It is not, sadly it might be amongst this somewhere in some form, however that is what I wanted to play and not all this other folder navigation, EXE, Jpeg nonsense. This may be a great game but for me the disappointment hit too hard too quickly when I tried it.

This game is very niche and very odd. I can see the appeal for people that enjoy 4th wall breaking puzzle games, but for me personally it wasn't the most enjoyable ride, mostly because the pacing was much to slow for my liking. Certain sequences without subtitles made it hard to stay focused. It's by no means a bad experience, but since Steam only allows Yes/No recommendations I'm going with No on this one.
