How it feels

a story-first rhythm game where you tap along to music while unraveling a mysterious, dimension-bending plot at your own pace.

What players say

Players praise the story and characters as emotionally gripping, often calling it one of the best indie narratives, but are split on the puzzles, which many find overly complex even with hints. The rhythm gameplay is widely liked for its adjustable difficulty, though some point to a sharp spike on an early boss song.
