How it feels

A poignant and methodical puzzle-platformer where you guide two tethered characters through a somber journey of loss and resurrection.

What players say

Players appreciate the beautiful visuals and piano soundtrack but note that a controller is mandatory and the controls feel janky. The game is a short, free student project with clever spirit-shifting mechanics, though the level design and puzzles are uneven.
