Absolutely beautiful the nautica world terrified me but this was a great comfort game

beautiful and chill

Looks and sounds great, plays like a bowling ball slathered in honey and thrown like a Frisbee.

You are supposed to dive/roll down to gather speed and then take a ramp to glide for a while. On the way, there are upgrades to gather and a few boosts. In the first few levels, that works fine. There is enough space to maneuver and after losing too much speed it is easy to get back up.

Later levels begin to feel more and more like a slog. You need to get some speed between plants and tight canyons and very little flying. Then you need to jump from asteroid to asteroid, very often getting "stuck" by not having enough escape velocity.

And finally, the game takes away your flight form and most of the steering. After bouncing on the uneven ground around, I find myself again and again in the same crater. Speeding up downwards takes me away from the target, there is really no good way to correct my heading and I get cramps from gripping the controller. This isn't fun and the backround story isn't interesting enough to endure this torture longer.

Good Art, bad Game.
