This is a real odd game, but I’ll do my best to explain it. You play as a strange creature with a propeller on your head, two glowing eyes, octopus-like legs(that seem useless), and you can fly. You also have an anti-gravity beam on your ass that can pull things. Nightmare fuel, anyone?
The game almost feels like Portal in a way. You use your anti-gravity ass to solve puzzles, such as switches, buttons, and putting rocks in specific areas.

But if you don’t think about the “WTF IS THIS?!”, and just play the game, you might find it a pretty fun 2.5D puzzle platformer/adventure game. I actually like it now. And that’s all there is to say.

Time for the review;

Good
-Awesome soundtrack!
-It uses your brain to figure out complex puzzles.
-The level design is also amazing.

Bad
-No plot.
-Not for the faint of heart (Level 2 has an actual human heart in it…)
-WTF are you?! Why are you a weird flying thing with octopus arms and have an anti-gravity ass?!

Final Verdict: Again, as long as you don’t think about the “WTF?!” factor and actually give this game a chance, it’s actually pretty cool. And it’s got an awesome soundtrack.
