About the game

Another Perspective is a puzzle platformer following the very confusing adventure of someone looking for something. Swap minds to see the world in different ways! Where one mind sees a bottomless pit, another might not. Where one sees a locked door, another sees a key. To change perspective is to change reality!

In the end with deep mysterious... well don't want to spoil it for you. Even so I did rush through it in only 1 hour and 15 Minutes, I only played the Main-Game so far and there is more, so I think it was definetly worth the few coins I spend. For the game beeing...

Fisrt off, this game's ending brought me to the brink of tears and that doesn't happen very often. Another Perspective is a really amazing game and it resonated with me a lot. The puzzles are challenging, but not to the point where it's frustrating and the story is what you make of it. It's captivating and for me, this is the best puzzle based indie game that I've played in a long time. Though short, this really is...

It is difficult, really difficult, to design and implement a game about shifting perspectives and existential issues. To this end, I will say that the price-point is fair. This game has just over two hours of playtime involved, and it's an interesting mini-game of sorts: a Philosophy of Mind novelty item. Would I buy this again? Probably. Would I recommend it? If you're into Philosophy of Mind, decidedly. If you're...
