untitled (the flower game) (2018);

A small game that is half drawing machine and half bullet-hell. Player characters, enemies and barriers are duplicated geometrically around a center point, creating a kaleidoscopic structure. As these objects are moved through space, they leave trails which are permanent until erased by an enemy or another moving element, drawing patterns in space.

An arcade mode rewards survival, while a sandbox mode allows the player to make drawings without the pressure of timing or scores.

Untitled (the flower game) is by Withering Systems, which was Everest Pipkin and Loren Schmidt.
