The game was relaxing but very engaging at the same time. There's so many things I enjoyed about this game. One, the aesthetic was very pretty and simple. Minimalism well pulled off, I love how the shapes morphed smoothly into each other. The notes played when you got a key right was very satisfying and really drew me into the game. It was almost therapeutic. Great fun, great visuals, sounded great. And one thing that really got to me was how you informed the player what each key did. Minimal interface - nothing but arrows. They disappeared as I pressed them and taught me what shape each arrow makes. I loved that part haha.
