The graphics definitely felt very other-worldly, and the music helped set the tone.

The music does a great job of setting the mood here, and I legitimately enjoyed it all the way through. Wandering across the narrow bridge felt a bit slow, but there was enough to look at that I enjoyed myself.\r\rI really like the somewhat odd look of the world. Fading off into neon blue fog to the horizon really helps the alien feel of the world.\r\rThe twisters\/player biggening powerups were a bit confusing to me at first as I thought they were launching me into the air. I really liked being up that high, though. Great world and great feeling under a time limit.
