Overview
We Become What We Behold is a catchy game about how attention turns into a weapon. In front of you is a small world of circles and squares, and in your hands is a camera. It seems that you are just an observer: pointing, clicking, catching "interesting" moments. But every picture changes reality. What gets into the frame begins to live its own life: it spreads, distorts the mood of the crowd, provokes fear, anger and mutual hatred.
The gameplay is based on a choice of what to show the audience and what to leave out of the frame. Catch the right scene, take a photo and see how society reacts to the "news".
This game is an interactive parable about clickbait, bullying, and how algorithms encourage drama. Simple controls, fast sessions and a clear goal make it an excellent choice, and the meaning is something that you want to return to and discuss.
