« A tremendously fun and challenging puzzle game with a brilliant soundtrack and peak 90s aesthetic. Runs exceptionally well on Steam Deck as well. Couldn't recommend it highly enough, if you remember Kula World then this is for you. »

« Really cool spiritual successor to Kula World with a great OST. Only criticism? It'd be nice if there was an option in the audio settings to turn off the tape-changing sound effect, and just have smooth fade ins and outs for the music. »
