How it feels
A slow, unconventional first-person experience that feels like a gentle, introspective walk, using familiar shooter controls in an odd, modest way to create a calm and positive mood.

What players say
Players describe it as a very short, one-minute walking experience with a heartfelt message, but many note performance problems like stuttering and low frame rates. It clearly borrows from a level in The Beginner's Guide, which the developer later credited.
