Mondrian - Abstraction in Beauty

This game is wonderfully relaxing to play. Even on the hardest settings it's pretty simple, so you can just revel in the fantastic soundtrack, pleasant sound effects and pop colors. A good game for unwinding and de-stressing.

Welch ein Zufall: Ein Spiel, dass nach mir benannt ist..... Nein ganz im Ernst das Spiel Mondrian wurde nach dem holländischen Künstler [url=de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piet_Mondrian]Piet Mondrian[/url] benannt, welcher Bilder im Stile des Neoplastizismus schuf. Ich halte mich lieber knapp - da dieses Spiel nicht wirklich einen Aufsatz verdient. (Es ist halt nur ein Block-Breaker Gelegenheitsspiel: PRO: + Abstraktion + Soundtrack + Steuerung (Tastatur/XBox-Gamepad) CONTRA: - Steuerung (Touch) - dies ist KEIN Bildungsspiel - man lernt nicht wirklich etwas ;) Ich finde es für Zwischendurch (bei Downloads oder Updates) emphelenswert

Very enjoyable meditative game with great music. Don't be fooled by the tutorial - it's there to literally teach you the basics of the game. As you play and accumulate gems, you can spend those gems on new paddles, balls, and levels, allowing you to pick and choose your own advancement through the game's content. Great game to wind-down on before bed, or to kill a few minutes with here and there.

Casse-brique généré aléatoirement en fonction des modifications de parties à débloquer au fil des points obtenus, Mondrian est un curieux jeu qui peine par ses nombreux bugs et son manque de finition globale. Un hexagone, constitué de plusieurs blocs, lâche des gemmes, la monnaie du jeu, lorsqu’ils sont frappés par la bille que l’on peut empêcher de sortir de l’écran via notre petite raquette. Cette dernière est à faire tourner autour de la zone de jeu à l’aide du clic droit ou gauche, rendant le gameplay peu précis mais amusant. Proposant plusieurs modes de jeu différents dans le principe, mais sensiblement identiques une fois lancés, Mondrian est une belle idée à l’exécution ratée. On s’y amuse facilement les premières minutes jusqu’à sécher devant un énième bug qui empêche de progresser. A vrai dire, pendant une partie, je me suis posé la question : le jeu serait-il toujours en Early Access ? Si oui, je lui aurait pardonné bien des choses. En l’état… Tant pis pour lui !

A game built to show off the art history of games that surprises you as you unlock more generation elements (color palettes, arena shapes, ball types, block configurations, etc.). Each unlock has the potential to work together in really neat and logical ways, and accompanies the solid, chill, evolving gameplay. I interviewed the developer, and it turns out there's some even cooler stuff beneath the surface as well, with an emphasis on honoring the work of Piet Mondrian and other indies!

Play 5 hour after geting the game 3 day ago. Going for the high score. Come try and beat mine!!! https://twitter.com/coolandrew91

Interesting concept for Arkanoid-alike coloured blocks wrecking game, there you move your pad not only on flat line track, but star- , cicrle-shaped and that not. Though I didn't go far yet, there seems to be vast variety of settings and levels to keep you intertained longer.

Mondrian - Abstraction in Beauty is a neat game to play if you're looking to unwind and relax or you're just really affectionate about busting bricks. Being able to spin around 360 degrees in an arena is a nice change to most of the general breakout games out there and the quirks continue with the assortment of powerups, stages, and arena modifications to unlock. The music is also pretty neat too, especially with how certain tracks will be played depending on what difficulty you choose. And of course, having a focus on art, the game's minimalistic aesthetic is beautiful, Piet would be proud! While it's a bit rough around the edges in some parts, Mondrian's worth giving a shot.

Tags: Casual - Brickbreak & Pinball Additional Tags: Delete Local Content & Remove from Library TLDR: Improper Xox360 pad support. Paddle control problems. Circular arena causes game design issues. Xbox360 pad was vibrating but inputs not detecting. The ball would sometimes clip through the paddle. The paddle would accelerate drastically after very slow motion for the initial second as if it was some exponential curve. The circular arena means that if your paddle is up your inputs can feel as if they are reversed if you are just twitch reacting because your paddle is upside down. The visual presentation tries to be clean and crisp and minimalistic. But it comes across as barebones, grating with way too much bright white and flat vibrant colors with no texturing for breakable tiles. The audio did not thrill me much either. Game loads slow and the new age quotes were pointless and not appropriate for an arcade title. Removed for declutter.
