I want to like this game so bad. The art is great, the name "Electroplankton" is real cool, and the idea of this abstract meditative music making game really appeals to me. But the game just feels like a tech demo. None of the mini games have any depth, and I would be surprised if anyone would be engaged enough to spend more than 10 minutes on any of them. Like Hanenbow looks super cool artistically, but it's just not fun and it's borderline impossible to purposely create any music with it. Super cool to see something so weird come out of Nintendo, but can't say I really enjoyed my time with Electroplankton.
