    • “This game is more about the experience than the gameplay, as there's only one button relevant to use.”
    • “Gameplay-wise, you only use the spacebar, either by holding it down, button mashing, or pressing at precise intervals, or for that matter, doing nothing at all.”
    • “This one has a bit more gameplay in it, but still, I'd categorize it as part game, part experience, and part cartoon art project.”
