About Sono

This game is best experienced with headphones.

Sono is a 2D exploration game where players effortlessly glide through an abstract microcosm collecting lost fragments of sound.

Originally created as an Alt.Ctrl game utilizing a MIDI controller's jog wheel, Sono has now been enhanced to work with Keyboards and Controllers so that more can experience it.

Key Features:

  • Simple & Satisfying - Glide gracefully through a relaxing space, with no fear of failure.

  • Quick Gameplay Experience - Depending on how exploratory you feel, the game's 3 worlds should last between 10-15 minutes.

  • Entrancing Environment - Dive into Sono's universe, a beautiful and mysterious place where sounds are your friends.

This is a work of art. The visuals are unreal! The gameplay is slightly slow but it's more of just a relaxing little artistic adventure. Musicly and through the art. Though being very simple, it feels very interactive. The movement control is a little anoying just because of how slow it takes to rotate, it makes it harder to position yourself, in a game about positioning. It also feels a little short and maybe some other ideas could of bean intruduced, but overall I had a really great time! Would love to play a full version of this game with more ideas and that would last longer. I definently recomend, very satisfying!

A very relaxing little game and something quite different, but unfortunately way too short. I can only recommend that the developers work on an updated or expanded version with much more playtime, the whole thing really has some solid potential. I’d absolutely love to have a game like this that I can come back to now and then to unwind after a hard day at work. I was just about to write the developers an email, but the webpage no longer exists. ChillSwitch Games are you still out there?

It's a short, free, and relaxing musical experience, I'd say 8.5/10

Pleasant and relaxing. Little bit of eye strain in the last level, but overall nice visuals and music.

Sono, honestly I can't say I particularly enjoyed my time with this game, while it's great to look at, I just found I spent most of time lost, wondering what I actually had to do while gliding round the same area for majority of my time playing, which was probably a skill on part but regardless it really wasn't fun for me. Overall it was an interesting experience for me but I do still feel like I'd recommend this game, it's free after all! Solid 6/10
