How it feels

A methodical puzzle-action game where you record and replay your movements to navigate a ruined world as a recording robot.

What players say

Players praise the unique recording mechanic and the gentle, well-balanced difficulty, though some say the mechanic could have been explored more. The short 7-8 hour run is complemented by charming monochrome pixel art and an ending that surprises and even moves some players.
