The Art Of Scorn
By Leo Gura - August 22, 2025
I posted about Scorn when it first released, but these videos offer a better way of appreciating Scorn’s artistry. Unfortunately Scorn is not as fun to play as it is to watch and admire from a distance. You don’t need to play Scorn, you can just watch these videos.
Scorn is one of the best examples of how games can reach high art. The creativity in this game is seriously impressive. This is psychedelic levels of imagination & creativity. It is this kind of creative work that has always drawn me to video game design. To invent stuff as imaginative and as beautiful as this.
Oh, what things Consciousness can dream up.
I can imagine the Scorn world as existing as its own realm of Consciousness/life. Imagine that instead of human life, instead of being born as a human on Earth, life was about being born in Scorn. This really shows you the power of Consciousness. To a human this kind of life seems unappealing, but this is the kind of stuff God thrives on. It is an entirely new kind of conscious experience, free from the mundane constraints of human life.
There is an official Scorn art book for sale which offers explanations of its lore.
