BrainMess

You've been locked in a room with pen, paper, pins, and strings, and you're not leaving until it makes sense.

This demo contains all of the game's mechanics thus far, but none of the game's story or exploration. Consider it a sandbox environment that you can use to experiment with the BrainMess mind-mapping system. Players can place notes, upload photos, and connect these items with string. <h2 class="bb_tag" >Your Brain is a Mess. Make it make sense.</h2>&quot;Have you tried making a list?&quot; God, why do they always ask this. Yes, I tried making a list. But I didn't have pen or paper, so I had to try and hold onto those thoughts until I did have pen and paper. Then by the time I had pen and paper, I'd forgotten what was supposed to go on the list. So I sat the list down and lost the list, and when I thought of what to write, I couldn't find the list. After wasting my day repeating this process, I finally went home, and realized I'd left the list at work. &quot;No,&quot; they say, &quot;Like, on the computer. Saved to the cloud.&quot;OH, THE CLOUD. Why didn't I think of the CLOUD. So I get on the computer and instantly forget why I was on the computer. Eventually I stop scrolling through memes and remember to make the list. I create a new document. I try to think of a name for the document. I spend fifteen minutes trying to think of a name for the document before I finally just name it The List. Then later I can't figure out which LIST is THE LIST because I have SEVENTEEN unfinished documents named THE LIST.&quot;It isn't that complicated,&quot; they say. PLEASE, EXPLAIN HOW IT ISN'T THIS COMPLICATED. Please show me the DIFFICULTY SETTINGS on my LIFE so I can TURN THEM DOWN from EUROPEAN EXTREME.Oh. Speaking of video games, what if I just... made the list... in a video game?&quot;Why?!&quot; They balk. &quot;How would that be easier in any way?&quot;&quot;Yeah...&quot; I reply, already firing up Unity. &quot;Yeah this is a way better idea.&quot;<h2 class="bb_tag" >Don't make a list. Make a CRAZY WALL.</h2>BrainMess isn't the first mind-mapping product to exist, nor is it the best. But it is the only one with first person controls, set in a 3D room that you can plaster from wall-to-wall with notes, strings, and organized insanity.It's also the ONLY mind-mapping product to be developed by an eighth grade English teacher who lost his job during quarantine, worked in a hospital during the pandemic, transitioned into a games startup after that, got diagnosed with ADHD, finally started to feel at peace with himself, IMMEDIATELY lost his games startup job, and couldn't find full time work anywhere except for the local MAXIMUM SECURITY PRISON.And he'd really appreciate it if you'd buy his little productivity game for like, the cost of a cheap sandwich.Do that, and he promises to keep working on it and adding features until it feels like it's worth AT LEAST three sandwiches.
