LASEReflect description
"A player more concerned with winning than playing has already lost at a far more important game."
This is an art game. This is aesthetic discussion material. This contains an unambiguous message in protest of over-reliance on extrinsic motivation.
In short: it's designed to demonstrate that when playing to win is the least fun way to play, then playing to win is losing.
Don't let your videogames become a chore. Don't let your playtime become a form of work. Don't let your life be ruled by whatever outside forces may decide to assign Achievements or Experience Points or Upgrades or Medals.
If you would prefer straightforward entertainment, you might be happier with Burnit (my nifty digital fire toy) or Alice in Bomberland (my cartoony action game) instead.
LASEReflect was created during a 36 hour period of GDC 2010 by Chris DeLeon, the developer behind the top-ranked apps Burnit, Topple, Alice in Bomberland, and iZombie: Death March.
