Mirror Stage by Stephen "increpare" Lavelle is a game where the player often has to guess level objectives based on narrative text. Abstract-looking polygonal levels are often multiplied and linked with passable mirrors and portals, resulting in symmetrical or fractal structures.
The game comes with a level editor that allows to replicate almost all levels in the main campaign, and several third-party campaigns, one of them made by Terry Cavanagh.
Trivia[]
- The title refers to the mirror stage, a concept in the psychoanalytic theory of Jacques Lacan.
