How it feels

A calm, contemplative puzzle game where adjusting scale feels gentle and mind-bending, set in a serene minimal world.

What players say

Players enjoy the scaling mechanic but find shrinking objects to zero frustrating and unintuitive. A few puzzles, especially the dime level, spike difficulty hard enough to cause rage, and the lack of an undo button is felt. The game is short, free, and compared favorably to Baba Is You.
