Simplistic in a bad way. It's "remastered" but still comes off as half baked and uninspired. I spend my time with this game frustrated with what the game doesn't allow you to do and I can't shake the feeling that its not because of any design philosophy, but because the devs just didn't bother implementing anything more than drawing objects with a 30 px pen tool. It ends up just being frustrating random nonsense with inconsistent solutions.

You cannot be precise with the drawing at all despite that being the only sort of interaction you can have with the game. I don't feel smart when solving a puzzle because my solution is more often than not just the same thing that didn't work 10 tries ago. I just end up getting the right pixels filled in with the finicky drawing tool and I win. You can apply some extremely basic mechanical engineering principles, but not with any degree of precision.

You can make some crappy hooks, levers, fulcrums, ramps, etc. You can offset the center of gravity of an object to topple it over by putting extra weight on one side. You can create a see-saw to launch a very light object by dropping a very heavy one on the other side. But you have to draw each of these with a dried out magnum sharpie that keeps sticking to the paper.

This seems like this game is getting some attention just because a few streamers played it. I enjoyed watching Jerma play it as much as the next guy but maybe I should have listened when he implied he wasn't having fun. Also, the music is very repetitive and annoying and makes the game worse. My advice to the devs is to next time put more effort into the quality of the puzzles rather than the quantity. I solved maybe 20 of these and I'd had enough. No way I'm putting time into solving 1,200. 2/10

One of the most pure things anyone's ever made.
