An experimental, minimalistic microgame about loneliness. Originally released as a Flash game in 2010 that was featured by Extra Credits.

## About This Game
An experimental, minimalistic art game that explores a single emotion and
takes only a few minutes to play through. Loneliness is a simple top-down
exploration game where the only available input is movement. Explore a flat
landscape populated by other squares that engage in various social behaviors
represented metaphorically through patterns of their own simple movement.

Loneliness was originally released as a Flash game in 2010. It was featured
prominently by Extra Credits (Season 4, Episode 3: Mechanics as Metaphor) and
others, and received a variety of accolades, including being nominated for the
Extra Credits Innovation Awards. Other people said the game was the worst
thing they’d ever played–but at least it wasn’t on Steam.

This is a 10th anniversary release that is true to the original game, except
that the end screen has been notably removed, as described at the game’s home
page.
