We Become What We Behold

We Become What We Behold is a short but emotionally impactful experience where players control what gets broadcast to the public. Set in a small society, this game explores how media shapes emotions, behaviors, and even conflict, all through a simple click-and-capture mechanic.

Media Manipulation Made Simple

You play as an unseen observer with a camera. Your goal? Capture moments and broadcast them. But the reactions you provoke begin to shift based on the nature of your photos. What starts off as light-hearted quickly descends into tension, anger, and unrest.

• Click-based gameplay: Capture scenes with your mouse and watch their effects unfold.
• Character emotions: From happiness to fear, each image you capture changes society’s mood.
• Cause and effect: Small choices lead to big consequences in behavior and perception.

Emotions Behind the Screens

Each action in We Become What We Behold has a ripple effect. Happy moments calm society, but capturing negativity causes unrest. It’s a brilliant metaphor for how headlines influence society’s mindset, making this game resonate beyond its minimalist design.

Impactful Simplicity

Though short, the game’s message is clear: what we choose to highlight has consequences. Whether you provoke love or violence depends on what you decide to show the public. It’s a commentary on cycles of fear, outrage, and division in media culture.

We Become What We Behold is a powerful reminder of the media’s role in shaping society. A few clicks may seem harmless—but in this game, they shape the very world you’re observing.
