I got this one alongside THOTH which grabbed my attention enough to get to this one asap. Am in absolute love with how relentlessly dedicated Carlsen Games is to putting pure game design before anything else, both of these games are so compact and fine-tuned that you tend to forget just how weird the game mechanics actually are.

This one's a super simple platformer, move left/right and jump and that's it, baby! The stages themselves are where things get interesting, all of them have their own set mechanics that switch around and do stuff along with the timing of the BGM.
You'll have to consider puzzles mostly in when to do what, everything basically loops around again after 1-2 bars but what's important is figuring out where in the bars you need to move/jump.
There's also a 'boss' at the end of every stage that works more as a minigame that uses a different control scheme, they're alright, the first one is kinda like a rhythm version of Buster Bros. which is cool.

I'm really excited to see what else these guys will do because this is still very much my kinda thing, cool looking shapes is eternal, babey
