    The gameplay is centered around a unique phasing mechanic that challenges players with its focus and timing, making for a satisfying experience as they navigate through increasingly difficult levels.

Players appreciate the game's ability to maintain a flow state while requiring concentration, making it a standout title worth exploring.

    • “The phasing mechanic is really interesting and challenging at the later levels! The whole game can be hard at times, but when you lock in the flow of the game, it's really satisfying gameplay that keeps the game fresh and interesting. The graphics and aesthetics are really nice and pleasant, and even the plot, which usually is not the strongest part of a platformer, is nice to follow and interesting (helps that it's about robots!).”
    • “The art, the music, the gameplay, and the story all move in sync, delivering an exceptional experience.”
    • “Each zone pushes you to the limits by introducing new mechanics along with harder platforming challenges.”
    • “There is a story of humankind's destruction, but the core gameplay is jumping and failing.”
    • “Just the initial color swapping mechanic itself (which is prevalent in every one of the 46 levels in the game) is tough to wrap your head around.”
    • “But once you start getting that down, zipping and dipping through the puzzling elements of this game becomes a real joy, even if you need to focus more on the moment-to-moment gameplay than you normally would with a 'flow state' platformer.”
