Are you ready to take on the challenge? Download On Off now and see if you have what it takes to master this minimalist marvel from Joe Noh. From The Creator: I was trying to create what I believed to be the most minimalist video game I could think of. Taking cues from structuralist experimentation in film, I determined that the most important and unique aspect of video games as an artistic medium is the direct manipulation of the medium by the player. No other art form, whether it be film, painting, literature, etc has this aspect. Strip away essentially everything you possibly can from a video game, and I believe the end result would be on/off, or something similar. Another goal I had in mind with on/off was to have people question what a video game is. There is no discernible goal to on/off, but if a score were to be added for every click, would than then make it a video game? This is the kind of discussion l'd like to create. Looking at the history of film, I found that experimentation led to a breaking down of the core elements of the medium, which in turn led a better understanding or re-examination of those elements.
