"Everything" & Nothing

July 27, 2017

OReilly's 2014 game Mountain has a website with only one quote, from Youtuber "Total Biscut" who says

It's only natural that OReilly would follow this up with a game called Everything. It mixes the metaphysics of Alan Watts with some good ol' 2017 existential dread to make something that is, at once, a conversation with itself and an invitation for the player to reexamine the way they interact with the world.

Also, you can fill the entire universe with snakes.
