How it feels

A calm, methodical puzzle where you guide a ball across shadows using physics and limited pauses to collect stars.

What players say

Players praise the creative puzzles and relaxing soundtrack but are split on the controls, with some reporting a delay on the spacebar pause and others having no issue. Achievements are bugged, one requires out-of-game workarounds.
