Everything

I turned into a sentient swarm of trash bags and danced in a circle while listening to philosophy 10/10 would recommend

i just had almost nine hours of getting 30 giant suns into a field and 20 million rats in hyperspace, driving a herd of ambulances into the sunset and flying as a giant salmon while hearing a voice of a very high man trying to sound wise it was a tripp

A game for people who like things.

I did not file my taxes in this game. You are missing some key components about "everything." Stupid. I liked it otherwise, good concept and I enjoyed listening to that guy. Over and over. His voices soothes me. Caresses my eardrums.

just listening to Alan Watts and then figuring out how to finish the tutorial gave me a whole new perspective I've only slightly considered before, but never fully understood until I played this game. Genuinely one of the best games I've ever played. True art. This game moved me in a little over 50 minutes, that should speak to how impactful this game is on a first playthrough.

never played anything like it, the concept is reality is concept is yeah, what a nice perspective :))))))

Beautiful

A game with a crazy concept: the possibility of being everything! In specific terms, we start by controlling an animal, and we can switch to another animal, or to something bigger (an island, then a continent, the a planet, then a galaxy...) or to something smaller (a snowflake, then a microbe, then an atom...). Some aspects look very amateur (some animals don't wlak but roll!), and it's more a toy than a game, but it's unique, and fun.

Everything

Eversince I was a child, trying to make sense of images of galaxies, particles and atoms, I wished for a game like Everything. Being able to observe them in three dimensional space is like a dream come true.
Then, growing older, trying to make sense of life, love, people and religion, I wished for a game like Everything. Around this time, I started looking for "my self" and found old videos of Alan Watts, which introduced me to his realm of thought, and I wished Everybody could get this fresh perspective on themselves and the world around them.
Anyone suffering from axiety or being lost, hating people or life, looking for "the answer", can find it, heal and change their perspective, through Everything.
Everything is part of the answer.
Everything contains the answer.
Everything sings and dances the answer.
Everything is the answer.

Everything is an experience, no one should miss in their life!
I am grateful for Everything becoming part of mine!

Thank you, developers and Alan Watts, for your beatiful masterpiece, wonderful mindset and spreading love!
Thank you for Everything!

very relaxing

just a simple game. one that makes you think tho

Crazy that a game called everything doesn't have enough. It feels barren. Moving to different islands is painful, the controls don't really make sense and you just kinda click and hope. Wish the space would keep going and there could be some more stabilisation to the game at all. For example, I feel like the world needs to be WAY larger, and filled with more, more people not more random pure randomness. I feel like I'm playing a in a mobile game ad world rather than a Geoguesser, simulation, extravagant, beautiful world.

It's just kinda bleh. I don't much care for the animal moving in weird ways and talking to shrimp if the shrimp are gonna say nothing relevant to anything. Would prefer somewhat of a narrative at all, might have livened things up a bit. Also do not care at all for the philosophy. Just kinda lame and corny...

End of the day what bothers me the most is the loop of constantly going to outer space, clicking on dogshit meteor and ending up back looking at earth again. Just feels like repetitive uninteresting nonsense. Again, would be more enjoyable if it didn't play it so safe. Flash pictures in my face, play cool songs, tell me a more DIRECT story, stop with this nonsense pretentious, no one understands our consciousness, SO DEEP BRO!!! bullshit. 4/10. Not good enough.

Are you kidding me?..... 10/10!!!!!!

There is no other game that aims at spirituality and liberation like "Everything"! This is the genre of games that I'd love to see more of! not more guns, monsters, cars, dragons.... I'm tired of that!!!!! Why can't we focus more on spirituality? philosophy? Mysticism? and Enlightenment? Elevation of the spirit and consciousness!!?? where is that???... Why don't we have more games that make the player reflect on existence and encourages us to think deeply about it all??....

KEEP ON PRODUCING MEANINGFUL GAMES!!! No one else does that!

Great insight into philosophy and the matter of the Self. Alan Watts' wisdom is a great company while exploring the known and unknow materializations of Everything. If you like to dive into disection of reality and mind games, this is a great start for a long journey. Be good.

neat little philosophical sandbox. hope the dev gets back to creating.

Nothing. 👍

Oof, tough recommendation. The game's not very deep but there's something oddly compelling about manipulating patterns while listening to epistemological feel-good nonsense. I don't even like this game and do not agree with the lectures, but I admit to enjoying discovering its kaleidoscopic design.

Super wacky little game. Spend hours floating as a chill turtle in the sky, or cause mass chaos. Your choice ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Everything is fine

I don't want to be a spoilsport, but I'm reminded of this game where a snobbish person drinks a very bad but expensive wine and feels obliged to praise it. The average person will tell you that the wine is only expensive but not delicious, and therefore he can be put down and considered a stupid, primitive average person. So this game is, in my opinion, a crazy insane bullshit.

Beautiful, insightful. It tries to show what religions all over the world teach us.

I dont know what to tell you. This game quite literally changed my life, even before playing it - I watched some YouTube video about it long ago and it has stuck in my head ever since. i have had problems with existential dread and generally anxiety my entire life and this game reminds me that I am loved and I am part of the world too. "The universe said I love you because you are love" kind of stuff. That's from the Minecraft end poem, but it fits the way this game makes me feel.
It's hard to even put into words WHY, because like, the last time I played this I literally just went around collecting satellites in space to dance and sing weird mechanical harmonies. But really I think that probably IS precisely why. Getting to do silly weird stuff. Being anything you want. Remembering that everything around you is made of the same stuff you are. Learning to love everything from Planck lengths to elliptical galaxies, beetles to goofy gorillas, proteins to spaceships.

That being said - Definitely not for everyone. Past the "tutorial", it's a meandering game where you make your own fun and collect stuff. Even I struggle with that actually, despite my tendency to play games that are like that. That's why I don't have many hours in the game. And the message of the game seems to not stick the landing with many people, though for reasons I don't often understand fully.

Also, there are some areas (primarily at the topmost region of space) where the graphics make my game lag. You don't HAVE to stay among the galaxies (you don't have to stay anywhere), but I do wish I could without it lagging.

Went into this game after joking about mountain for years (no hate on mountain), expecting a funny kind of fun game where i can roll around as a pig.

My expectations were exceeded. Not only is there way more than the pig, despite the game having a pretty simple concept with not much gameplay aspects outside of collecting the entire index of things and just generally messing around with the different abilities you get, but the thought bubbles are where the real heart of the game is. Alan watts dialogue is incredible to listen to, but something about the personal thought bubbles you can find on random things was really cool to me.

Spoilers

When I went through the golden gate, I couldn't stop reading the different thoughts around me. Not only because there were so many, but because as a 19 year old just starting out in life, so many of them hit home for me. Some of them choked me up a bit. This take on hell may be my favorite ever. Endless regrets and wallowing in self pity, forever with no escape.

I also really just like the fractal universe concept, I thought of an idea like that when I was younger, and of course discovered there were already theories behind it. It's always fascinated me.

Amazing game, 10/10

It is trully one of the games that I have played

I really wanted to give this game a fair chance but I don't understand the point. I would definitely say that this game is more of a toy and not an ecosystem/universe simulator. In this game you can literally be EVERYTHING, which is a very cool concept, but not what I was expecting when downloading the game. This game is definitely more of an indie, artsy type game rather than a simulator. It is designed to open you up to new philosophical ideas, but only involves a bunch of creatures rolling around. Overall, I would not recommend it to anyone who doesn't enjoy philosophical indie/adventure games, and I was expecting more of a simulator.

I really do not know what the heck is going on in this game. It just isn't for me. The graphics and the gameplay are very vague. The achievements don't make a lick of sense. There are bits of Alan Watts' talk scattered around for no apparent reason. The movement is ridiculous and doesn't appeal to me at all. Maybe it is a good game, but it doesn't work for me at all.

When I finished the game I was like "Well now I bet this game is a great wallpaper simulator. Let's test out the autoplay" and set up some sea turtles to go swimming in the ocean.

Man, let me tell you. I was so relaxed watching them swim along and then suddenly go soaring through the sky. Nature is beautiful.

u gotta be kidding me w that goofy ah nasty animal movement 💀

i get nothing but a horse rolling around. After a while it is not cute any more. Glad it was only a couple dollars. Uninstalled.

i Can Now Say i Own EVERYTHING

Everything is... an experience. It is about exploring, and philosophy. It can be mentally relaxing to just go through the flow and find what you can find as you move forward. However, it seems that every lap, new unlockables can be found, even in biomes and environments that you might have thought you "completed". But, I think that's kind of the point of the game, not to complete it, but to just... experience it.

I've only put 2 hours in so far, and while I've already unlocked half the Steam Achievements, I will say that it was well worth the $3 on sale. I personally don't know if I would have been happy had I paid more, but for what I'm churning through, it's alright. The one thing I don't particularly care for is how the animals move, but I think it's meant to be satirical in that sense, so I move past it.

Get it on sale, enjoy an hour or two of chill time, and then move on.

that was a good game. I'd listen to Alan Watts talk over basically whatever, but a charming silly sandbox was a nicer treat than Youtube comment section

8 / 10 cows tipped

Came for a cheap video game I didn't think I would play more than 10 minutes of and left wondering how I never saw meaning in such little things that I never even noticed before.

Don't read so much about it, just play it.

I love this game

Be the Universe.
Amazing. Astonishing. Weird. Thoughtful.
The only downside is lack of animations of the animals. But after a while you're getting used to what the authors propose :)

game won't progress beyond "Everything is loaded" on macos

I came back to this game and decided to play it while under the influence of Mushrooms... this is the most beautiful game ever, I've never felt so many emotions and just the sounds when really tiny are so satisfying and Alan Watts tidbits are the icing on the cake as someone who loves philosophy. Even without hallucinagens this game is amazing and is well worth the price.

This game is beautiful. I recommend to anyone. 10/10.

honestly dont know why i play this but its kinda fire

Everything is a good simulation game with nice graphics and a relaxing ambiant. I recommend it!!! 💙💙💙

I want to like this game, and I do like the concept. However it feels so poorly implemented as to be an exercise in frustration, not mindfulness. I spent 20 minutes trying to stop being a dust mite, only to have the controls be either buggy or unresponsive.

I was not prepared to like this game as much as I do. When I fired it up for the first time, I was a cow who couldn't "walk". I could roll around to get from A to B and I thought it was so distracting that I logged out and hadn't touched it for a number of weeks/months. Then, I tried it again yesterday when I actually had time to spend...O.M.G!!! I spent HOURS marvelling at all the different levels of existence and the detail contained within each. I jumped from creature to creature, item to item, as much as I could so that I could "discover" them all. Every item or creature that I embodied could "sing" to one another and combine to dance if prompted. It was fascinating to see the world from the perspective of each item. I spent time as a single photon and then I was a tree. Later, I was a house, then I was a cloud........It makes no sense when you describe it to others but, when you play it, IT ALL MAKES SENSE!! Additionally, after about 10 hours of exploring the world, I made a few moves and discovered that I had been playing the TUTORIAL the whole time! Now, I get to do even more exploring during the real game. Amazing! This is a fantastic idle play game that will captivate you and leave you questioning your own place within existence. When they say "Everything" they really mean it. The depth of exploration makes up for the somewhat rudimentary graphics, as compared to more recent titles. Yet, it doesn't bother me in the least. I've found a new go-to when I need to find a peaceful escape from my own existence and I don't want the stress or the pressure of trying to "beat" a game. Think of it as a mental palate-cleanser. When you need to change your head space, THIS is a lovely way to do it. Beautiful!

This game gave me an existential crisis about my place in the universe.

One minute you're a fish, the next, you're an amoeba in space?!?!?!

Before you give this game a try, know that at first it may seem like a cool abstract game about life and stuff. After you've sunken some time into it. you'll realize it's a waste of money. It's a copy paste of every indie game out there that's not really about anything, only low poly animals and natures and forests and other useless stuff.

it made me cry :steamthumbsup:

This went from "what the heck is this stupid game" to "I think I can fight my demons another day" in about 15 minutes. No notes, 10/10. Thank you devs!

best game. thank you
