LOOK, TAKE, and USE your way past recognition, judgment, and recursion — cutting fragments of memory from failed almost-faces, bargaining with a sorting-court ledger, anchoring yourself against an infinite hall of mirrors — as the dread tightens with every layer you clear. Your choices color what waits below. At the center: not a mind, but a fixed point. Built for phones and desktop alike, with a real verb-driven parser and a typed command line for the purists. A game by Arno Schwarz.\n\n| Published | 32 minutes ago |\n| Status |\n|\n\n[schwarzarno](https://schwarzarno.itch.io)[Puzzle](https://itch.io/games/genre-puzzle)[Retro](https://itch.io/games/tag-retro),[Singleplayer](https://itch.io/games/tag-singleplayer),[Story Rich](https://itch.io/games/tag-story-rich)[AI Assisted](https://itch.io/games/ai-assisted),[Code](https://itch.io/games/ai-code),[Graphics](https://itch.io/games/ai-graphics),[Text](https://itch.io/games/ai-text)## Download\n\nThis game is currently unavailable", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/descent-ega-point-and-click-game-set-inside-a-neural-network-s-hidden-layers", "canonical_source": "https://schwarzarno.itch.io/descent", "published_at": "2026-07-08 00:10:10+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-07-08 00:30:31.130980+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["artificial-intelligence", "neural-networks", "ai-products"], "entities": ["Arno Schwarz", "Descent"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/descent-ega-point-and-click-game-set-inside-a-neural-network-s-hidden-layers", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/descent-ega-point-and-click-game-set-inside-a-neural-network-s-hidden-layers.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/descent-ega-point-and-click-game-set-inside-a-neural-network-s-hidden-layers.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/descent-ega-point-and-click-game-set-inside-a-neural-network-s-hidden-layers.jsonld"}}
