The game features fun puzzles and beautiful music, showcasing a lot of love and care in its design.
It's a short but enjoyable experience that can be played multiple times for achievements and exploration.
The graphics are nice, and the unique time manipulation mechanic adds an interesting twist to the gameplay.

There are technical issues, such as camera bugs and lack of a save option, which can detract from the overall experience.
The puzzles lack variety and can become repetitive, making the game feel more like a demo than a fully fleshed-out title.

The gameplay is characterized by a mix of exploration and puzzle-solving, featuring unique mechanics like a time manipulation ability and light beam alignment. While some players appreciate the innovative elements and smooth movement, others find the puzzles too simplistic and wish for more depth and complexity. Overall, the game offers a fun experience, particularly for those who enjoy casual gameplay and speedrunning.
- “This was such a fun game with some really neat mechanics that I've never seen before in a game.”
- “Gameplay consists of solving puzzles by moving blocks to align light beams, and using a special ability that creates a 'time bubble', changing a spherical area back to what it looked like a long time ago... to explain, I guess, the first puzzle you run into involves shooting the ability at a ruined bridge to restore it so you can cross over.”
- “A cool and unique mechanic with the time gun; easy but fun puzzles.”
- “Overall it's okay though I'd wish the puzzles involved more mechanics and felt less casual.”

- “Surprisingly good graphics, very enjoyable puzzles, not hard, just enough to make one carry on and have fun.”
- “Overall excellent effort for environment design and polished visuals, although in the end, nothing particularly special.”
- “While the game disappointingly lacks graphics tweaks, there's 4K support, and most importantly, it looks pretty good.”
- “It would be more effective if the graphics loaded in completely before it started, though, because there was a lot of pop-in, and it detracted from the 'awe' of the reveal.”

- “There's no story, no levels, no combat, and nothing to really explore.”
- “It's pretty bare bones though with only one level to complete and no real backstory.”
