    Yeah, it's a nice tiny game, although somewhat tedious. I noticed elements of metroibrainia, but it's far from something like Outer Wilds, which analogues I was seeking for a while...

    Very interesting game, gimmick that you can't find anywhere, some parts hurt my brain bad, chasing under 15 min achievment is frustrating because I suck. I'll most likely think about this game a lot.

    A platformer that your default, invariable jump height kills you by fall damage. I appreciate how the game progresses by showing you the hidden mechanics, but at no point does it stop being infuriating.
