ABOUT IDEA
Inspired by the award-winning short film of the same name by
Olli Huttunen, IDEA is a physics-based exploration game with
platforming elements that invites players to discover a
beautiful, savage world as they help their ideas find their
place in the world.
The game sets you on a journey of awe-inspiring beauty,
exploring gorgeous landscapes from a bird’s eye view recorded in
4K resolution, with no loading times between screens. Spark an
idea, represented by a white lightbulb, and send it forth to
find its place in the world. Watch your idea from the sky,
bouncing and falling, and help it when it gets stuck before the
music ends.
If you find your destination, your idea will bloom into a piece
of visual art, a short clip of beauty and marvel. But sometimes,
it won’t be able to advance, and its journey will end there –
but it won’t be for anything: it can help other people’s ideas
in the future, or even yourself. Write a thought, a piece of a
song, or a verse, and share it. Now is out there, forever, for
all the world to see. And when you begin a new journey, you’ll
see other people’s ideas. Save your favourite ones, and see how
many people have saved yours.
IDEA has won several awards since it was announced in early
2022, and became finalist of the prestigious Sense of Wonder
Night at the Tokyo Games Show, last September. The game follows
similar principles as The Longest Road on Earth (of which TLR
Games are co-creators): a soothing, poetic experience, focused
on the feelings and meanings that the intersection between art,
music, and gameplay can create.
