A very sweet game !
Gameplay reminded me of Death Stranding, except it's fully focused on climbing instead of walking.
It works really well and there are enough new mechanics introduced in every chapter so it doesn't get boring.
While still pretty short, the game felt longer than I expected honestly, but it does fit the journey of climbing this gigantic mountain.

I do feel that more freedom would have been beneficial; at the very beggining, the level design made me assume I could explore a bit out of the main path but no.
Also there is one single moment in the game where you can kinda choose different paths but it last for like 2 minutes ...

Other than that, it is visually extremely pleasant ! I really like that whole "used to be underwater" aesthetic. Music and sound design were particularily on point too.
