Impressive what you can do with only 6 controls1 found this helpful
One of the most immediately enjoyable games I've ever played. The sense of learning both through in-universe guides and exploration of mechanics was an absolute joy to experience. A short, fast, and sweet game that awakened a speedrunner's soul within me that I didn't even know I had.1 found this helpful
