The Beginner's Guide is a very special video game. We often hear it "resists" analysis in a similar way to Inside from Bo Burnham. That by trying to unveil what it means, you just end up participating in what the piece is critiquing. And I agree. So I decided to do something... different.

Not an analysis. A journey. Or something like that.

Hope you enjoy. Even though I shouldn't care if you don't.

With love,
GA
