I really enjoyed the exploration of this game, it throws a bunch of unique ideas that have a lot of depth, particularly in the variety of tools. I just wish there was some motivation to explore outside of it being a videogame. There's an argument that narrative can be constructed simply out of the joy found in gameplay, but I would have preferred something more textual

I really wanted to love this game, but the pacing's totally off for me. I feel like I'm always being bombarded with new stuff, and so I can't run my business successfully, which means the expansion deeper takes longer and longer. I'm at a limit of 400m right now, and trying to beat the game down to 1,000m just seems like such a chore

The base game feels like a bunch of really good ideas were thrown into a ball pit and shaken around. In the end, a few were dribbled on or deflated, and no ball really went well with that next to it, but on average each ball was a good quality.
Afterwards, the expansion took out several of the better balls, placed them on a web, and made a beautiful decoration.
