My disabled computer don't let me play Utopias
But I got the chance to experience it at Etopia_ZGZ's CTRL ALT Play exhibition, mostly all artworks were ruined by abandon.
Your's not ! and I really enjoyed the trip
thank you people.
just a shot of pure creativity. thought it was very interesting although the text went by a little too slow at times.
the bundle of simeltaneous optimism and anxiety i got out of this v much speaks to me rn
still my favorite experience ever playing a game. utopias inspired so many of my favorite lucid dreams.
This is so good. Video Games as an art form!

Truly my most favorite and transformative experience in the Bundle for Racial Justice and Equality. Perfect for a heightened state of consciousness. At times it was unfriendly, but every moment challenged conventions and compelled. Thanks for creating and sharing.
What a nice comment! Thank you for playing our game. Glad you liked it! :)
Phenominal work! I want to learn how to create surrealism art like this with 3D programs? What program is best for making 3D models and rendering them?
Try Blender <3
Would love to find the Mac version. ^_^/
TBD but we should have an answer soon!
Fantastic, I'm volonteer for Mac testing. I have the magic mouse and a classic logitech with wheel.
oh cool, thank you :)
I'm not sure how these are utopias but I'll give it a try.
The subtitle of the project is Navigating Without Coordinates. We are uncertain if we can achieve our utopian ideals and we have come to embrace that. During the long development time of the project, we became aware that “utopia” was not necessarily a place or an idea we could attain but rather a process of trying to navigate the territory that lies between us and change. This very much describes the practical process of learning to organize a collective. Utopias is a viewport into this process.
Reminds me of art sqool

Looking at the screenshot I see a bird in a cage. During my play through of that part of the game I was an octopus in a fish bowl in a blue empty space. Every now and then it would go into wireframe. I was absolutely confused on what I was supposed to do. Thankfully, a timer appeared in the top right of the screen and it ended the level for me, and I completed the world.
Interesting game for sure!
Thank you for playing Utopias Wallace! Glad you completed the experience!
Looks trippy.
Thanks Vampire!
Uh ok.
Really looking forward to playing this when the Mac version is out!! It looks absolutely gorgeous.
Thank you @Crawlspace. We are working on it! :)
OMG!UTOPIAS Indeed! This is literally perfect... Also, the ARTWORK and CREATIVITY is UTOPIAS! Great Job AAA :^)
thank you for streaming! you win the title of first Lets Player of Utopias ✨
😊
aaaaaaaaaa ive waited so much for thisssssssss
We too!!!
wow. what a ride. really, really beautiful stuff.
absolutely loved the spectrum of clear goals to ambiguity. heterogeneity is something i value, especially when it's all idiosyncratic. i felt different for each section, from peace to confusion to happiness to solidarity.
i thought it was fitting that i ended on gabriel's, which in itself contained multiple perspectives, each different. i love the humanity of that aspect, especially when transitioning into the last segment, with the conversation scrolling in the background.
every time i finished a planet, i was excited to go to the next one. i'm glad they were all succinct so i could experience them in one sitting. this is definitely a game to return to maybe once a year or so.
i'm going bed now, i hope this permeates my dreams, and my future.
Comments like this make it all worth it for us. Thank you for playing, and sweet dreams :)
