Jan. 2025

Now this is a cute physics based puzzle game. The puzzles are presented in a single screen with the mechanics being simple and intuitive. Solving each level once is almost assumed, yet solving them in multiple different ways is the truly interesting game behind the game.

Jan. 2025

I only managed to complete a few levels. I did not like the lack of tutorial, it was figure out how to play on my own. I am finding the current level difficult. I think the idea is great and teaches about refraction of light, however I hate the big flash when the level is complete. I wanted to get to see the refraction of light. Pros if you are patient and can figure out the level. Cons are lack of tutorial and big flash of light each time you finish a level (not great if someone is epileptic fyi).

Sept. 2024

Very fun puzzle game. At first it seemed quite difficult but once you get the hang of it it is actually pretty easy. On a lot of levels I found more solutions than the devs without trying hard. Nice music. Sometimes it can be a little finicky to get the angle just right but overall definitely a very fun experience.

Aug. 2024

Great if limited number of puzzles. If you're on a steam deck however (I guess its a controller issue) I cant seem to replay any levels where I didn't get all of the developer's solutions. I can see the menus with the levels on, telling me how I did, but when I try to select one to play I can't

July 2024

Not a very long and that's including doing the same level multiple times to find extra solutions. Still a fun game despite its short length and simplicity. It might just be the game the sates your puzzle game cravings.
