Totally worth playing. It was buggy at launch and had mixed reviews, but the game is honestly really good. Story, combat, traversal, all great. Starts off kinda slow, but once the ball is rolling you'll be hooked. Highly recommend.

Overall, if you have a taste for indie gems, I would highly recommend this game. Combat is arguably the weak point of the game. It's a deck builder, but the range of cards don't really allow for that much expression. This is easily overlooked however when enjoying the art style and story of the game. The music, narration and world all combine into a roughly 13 hour game. It's charming, it's short, it's worth it if you can snag it 50% off.

Very charming little game. Swinging around and solving puzzles with webs, it does what it aimed to do very well. If you like playing indie games, I would highly recommend this short but cute adventure.

The closest comparison that I could relate it to would be Astral Chain. Although the art direction wasn't as cool, it was still worth noting it as one of the highlights. Character design and dialogue weren't too bad either. Some characters had really enjoyable arcs that changed them. With the large cast it really felt like you were part of the team.
The overall story is a bit confusing, and i found myself feeling like i wasn't really following what exactly was going on. The premise is fine, typical monsters invading the earth, gotta save everyone type deal. That's an oversimplification of course. There were some twists in the story that were welcome and kept things interesting.
Combat was a double edged sword for sure. Being able to use powers like Telekinesis and Hypervelocity along with others made combat feel free-flowing. The bad side is that the game had way too many combat fillers in between episodes. I'm talking like 7 floor levels just to meet up with someone for a 2 minute cutscene. The enemy design was in my opinion horrendous. I honestly think there was almost no user review inputs on the attack patterns. I felt cheated a bunch of times while fighting basic enemies. it wasn't difficult, just obnoxious.
I would recommend this game if you reaaally liked Astral Chain and have some patience with combat and story. There's a good selection of waifus available, which is always great.
Would rate 7/10

I'm reviewing this game because this game deserves it. It's a showcase on how beautiful and tragic human emotion can be, represented simply with color. It's a short game with puzzles along the way, light platforming, and collectibles. The larger story overall however, had a deeper meaning behind it all. I would recommend playing this game, and watching a YouTube video explaining what you played. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for well made short indie game.

Early Access Review
This is unironically a good game. This is a game for those people who enjoy the basic act of cleaning. It's satisfying almost like ASMR. I can lose myself in this game simply focusing on washing away every spec of dirt. Buy it if you enjoy seeing your windshield wipers get rid of the water off you car.

Solid game. The rewind mechanic allows you to solve puzzles with virtually no pressure. This creates a relaxing game that just lets you do things at your own pace.
I personally found most puzzles to be rather easy, but there were a few that made me think pretty hard.
Art and Music are both good, not memorable however. There are very light story elements, do no come into this expecting that.
Clocked in at almost 7 hours when completing. I would recommend buying this on sale.

If you like Ace Combat, you'll probably like this game. If you've never played one of these games, but you like planes, you'll probably like this game.

This game is a masterpiece. Best purchase I made this year. Great story, fun combat, tons of skills with flashy animations, and modern graphics. This might be the first story game I will play a second time through.

It's a decent game overall. The game is on the rails meaning you just follow where the game takes you. You'll be shooting aliens, bugs and fighting some "bosses". The AI isn't interactive per say but they look good and are with you most of the time making it feel like you're with a team. It's rather short though, but good fun. The beginning pistol they give you made my fingers hurt though since its single tap and the aliens swarm you. If you like wave shooters, this is a solid game.
