did you like that feeling in Outer Wilds where you saw something for the first time and went "holy shit what is that"? well, now there's more!

this game kicks ass, i love how it manages to feel endlessly creative (puzzle-wise) with relatively few tools. you have a couple of ways of interacting with the world, and it's always finding new, exciting ways for you to use them. that's the heart of the genius, i think; it's not about giving you red keys to open red doors, it's about realising you had the red key all along but you just didn't know how locks work yet.
