Short but Sweet!

This was a really neat game. The graphics are simple but beautiful. Discovering how the game worked and then choosing how to play was a lot of fun! Like the game description says, it can be completed in a single sitting. It took me a little under 2 hours.

Nice game with some pros and cons

After replaying the game multiple times what i can say about it: - First time i didn't know how to start the game, when i realized i have to move the cursor to one of the moving green circles on the starting screen and click on them. ( I thought, i got a different game from the game on the pictures. ) - I like the concept of "each action has it's consequence" negative or/and positive and you have to experiment what works and what not. - The effects may blind you when you progress and when you reach the end, so it may not be for everyone. In summary it's a nice and fun game even if there's some cons.

Interesting concept / horrible controls

I just can't get used to the controls. You simply steer the circle avatar by moving the mouse, but it has so much inertia that you need to steer drastically into the opposite dircetion to just slow down. You can adjust the sensivity on the fly with your mouse wheel, butthe movement is still is so annoying and makes the game way more diffcult than it should be in my opnion. Also: no controller support for some reason, even though start and A button do things. Is it so hard to implement controller support these days?

Purpose TBD

As you gaze into the the game to solve it, the game gazes back into your soul so you can understand yourself.
