Ratings and reviews

This is possibly the only racing game that will teach you binary, then make you use it to unlock new levels for more story. Getting the controls and boost-angles right may be frustrating at first, but come the end of the game it is both incredibly satisfying and quite intuitive. The story, while short, is well written and feels impactfull. And the music is TOP NOTCH. The dev grabbed some fantastic artists, and listening to retro synthwave while rocketing around curves is absolutely cathartic.

This was a genuinely entertaining game with lots of secrets and little gags. It took about an hour to complete, but it was packed with plenty of existential crises and thoughts. It's a simple game with simple mechanics, but that's where the best games come from. The only reason this isn't 5 stars is due to a fatal bug. In any point in the game, if you get an achievement, the game will freeze and stay frozen until the game is reopened. Sadly that means I had to do many levels over again.

Now, i am not one for writing reviews, so this may not be as greatly put together as other reviews, but i just have to say that this game is really amazing. Without giving too much away, the game was slightly challenging, and it took me a couple tries to get the hang of it, but once i understood well how to play it, it got really fun. The story peices hidden around made it seem like I was a little triangle floating around listening to Mother. Overall, I loved playing it, and will over again.
