The Creation of Life
One of the most important aspects of Cube & Star: An Arbitrary Love is the creation of life. The player can create new creatures by eating fruit. Each type of fruit creates a different type of creature. For example, eating a red fruit creates a red creature, and eating a blue fruit creates a blue creature.
The creatures that the player creates are all unique. They have their own appearance, behavior, and abilities. Some creatures are friendly and helpful, while others are hostile and dangerous. The player must learn to interact with these creatures in order to survive and progress.
The creation of life is a powerful and rewarding experience. It is a chance to bring something new into the world and to shape the world around you.
The Joy of Exploration
Another important aspect of Cube & Star: An Arbitrary Love is the joy of exploration. The game’s world is vast and full of secrets. The player is free to explore the world in any way they choose. There is no set goal or objective, and the player is not punished for dying. The game is simply about experiencing the world and creating new life.
As the player explores the world, they will encounter a variety of strange and wonderful creatures. They will also discover new landscapes and new ways to interact with the world. The game’s world is constantly changing, so there is always something new to discover.
The joy of exploration is one of the great pleasures of Cube & Star: An Arbitrary Love. It is a game that encourages the player to be curious and to experiment. It is a game that rewards the player for taking the time to explore the world around them.
The Pointlessness of Existence
Cube & Star: An Arbitrary Love is a game about the pointlessness of existence. The player character is a strange creature that has no purpose or goal. It simply exists. The player is free to create new life and shape the world around them, but there is no ultimate goal or meaning to their actions.
The game’s world is also pointless. It is a constantly changing landscape that has no beginning or end. The creatures that inhabit the world are all unique, but they are all ultimately doomed to die.
The pointlessness of existence is a difficult concept to come to terms with. It can be frustrating and depressing to think that our lives have no meaning or purpose. However, it can also be liberating. If our lives have no meaning, then we are free to create our own meaning.
Cube & Star: An Arbitrary Love is a game that challenges the player to think about the meaning of life and the nature of existence. It is a game that is both beautiful and thought-provoking. It is a game that will stay with you long after you finish playing it.
