Neat concept, but the frequency at which you get a run that is just impossible due to the level and item combination is frustrating. Rating the game positively for the moments where you genuinely come up with cool solutions to things, and for being an indie dev with a super cool idea. If it looks cool to you, you'll probably enjoy it.

Mosa Lina claims itself to be a "hostile interpretation of the immersive sim", which one may feel is true when they first start playing. The strange controls, the random tools, the levels themselves, the modifiers too. It all initially jumps out at you, confusing you greatly. As you play the game, you familiarise yourself with how to move, how to collect the fruit, how to apply the things you are given. It is initially a frustrating yet rewarding experience. You're met with the final big level, causing the same feeling as the previous 8 levels. But you beat it, once again frustrated yet rewarded. You're taken to the "Game Over" screen, blessed by the calming loop of music, entranced by the worm in the air, and stuck on a small platform. You have control to move, but the only way you can go is offscreen, killing you. And the loop starts again. You beat the levels, get taken to a new area of the "Game Over", and loop once more. The more you loop and the more you play, the less hostile the game becomes. The more immersed you are in the game's care-free nature. You read bits of flavour text, "Parental Approval", "As Expected", "Yehaw", "Amazing", "Rerolling is fun", "Enjoy", "Fish Fear You", "Never Give Up", funny bits of text mixed together with motivating advice, driving you to keep playing and enjoying the game. The game isn't hostile at all, it's merely difficult to know how to play it. One could even say it's calming once you get to know it, you just have to work with what you have. Nothing is planned, and everything works. I cannot go on about how much I love this game without repeating myself. It's the game I play when I don't have much time to play anything else, it's the game I play during late nights, it's the game I play to have fun playing games.

A playable (and painstakingly fun) thesis on why player agency has no upper limit. A game that has NO intended solution, NO intended obstacles, NO idea what you are going to do, and NO mercy. Surely the holy game design wisdom of the great nintendo kingdom passed down to us through generations would alert us with a sharp jab that this is doomed to fail, and yet it stands tall and unflinchingly proud. The impression one might get that this game is "random" is far from the truth. The design of the game's systems, weapons, and levels are all scalpel level intricate to allow the randomness to always construct a level each run where you THINK it just MIGHT be impossible, yet the solution always finds its way to you like an anvil onto a troublesome coyote. I have had more heartpoundingly adrenaline inducing plan-and-run operations in this game than in all my hours of TOTK and its alike contemporaries, and while of course it does not have the meaty bones of such industry legends, god damn does this game actually make you think and perform. In this way, it is more of a systemic and free game than any other I can think of in recent times.

This game has destroyed my life in a good way. The true randomness means it's so easy to pick up over a lunch hour and play a round or two. Mosa Lina's level editor is easy to pick up and hard to put down. This game doesn't care what you think of it , it just exists. The music and sound design is amazing, it feels like you're actively unwanted in this place, almost hauntingly beautiful. For 5 dollars, you could buy a sandwhich which gives you like 10 minutes of enjoyment, or you can buy THIS game and really experience something fun for many many hours to come.

Amazing game. Here are a few criticisms: 1. I feel like it would deeply benefit from having a designated "end" to a run like Roguelikes do, so that I could feel a sense of accomplishment and closure after a session. 2. The turtles spawning off the edge can result in extremely difficult scenarios, especially if it happens to be the last level which gets additional objectives added to it. It took me over half an hour to beat one of these scenarios, which while satisfying to figure out in the end, raises concerns if impossible scenarios could be generated when these two factors are combined. 3. I beat all nine levels first try once and didn't get an achievement or anything :( Overall, great game, but it could be even better with some improvements.
