How it feels

A short, experimental puzzle game where you manipulate magnetic polarity to navigate minimalist and atmospheric levels.

What players say

Players describe a short Portal-like puzzle game using magnets, praising the concept but noting it is only a demo with two levels as of its 2019 release. The controls feel clunky, the opening is confusing without direction, and boxes often get stuck or fall out of the map, requiring restarts. Long-time reviewers add that the developers abandoned the game in early access and it was never finished.
