the slow motion just decreases the frame rate which is kind of funny, really well designed game and fun difficulty curve

A good challenge, fair price considering the length of the game, simple controls and that distinct Fred Wood style. I had fun.

Okay, so the in game footage shown on the Steam store page on [b]Pulstario[/b] make this game look rediculously easy. Which it isn't if you do no use the slow motion option. I wonder if the developer has become really good at his own game or if those videos were shot while playing in slow motion and played back at regular speed. :) I hope to git gut too after I have played it a couple more times. This game is good fun to play if you have a couple of minutes to spare. It is challenging enough but not too difficult because of the aforementioned option to slow down time.

This game is pog and you should play every game by Fred Wood. Man's a legend 🙌
