Short and beautiful puzzle game that played a lot like Braid. Most of what you do here is advance and rewind time as two characters traverse a predetermined path, solving increasingly difficult but never super-complicated puzzles that have to do with light orbs, switches, and orders of operation. Really dug the soundtrack and art direction here - these levels really feel like little dreamscapes and the story, though incredibly simple and predictable, tugs at the heart surprisingly well when all is said and done. Little puzzle game like this won't be for everyone, but I enjoyed my time with it just as much as I enjoyed how brief that time was.
