“Fun little puzzler. I don't have much to say, just wanted to give it a positive review!”

“The most stressful "puzzle" game I've ever played. Less about solving the puzzles and more about the execution; rotating tiles while dodging enemies and stealing energy to extend your life/time. Sometimes there's memorization involved. Interesting idea, well made, fun…”
