Laserlife

This game is good! The gameplay is simple but fun enough. The score gives an extra purpose and additional replay value to this otherwise short game. The visuals are very fascinating and certainly add to the experience. The music is very underrated in my opinion; it sounds pretty chill and smooth. I think it's worth playing overall and is definitely a fun time.

It took me a while to figure out the controls, despite the instructions on screen. After getting that sorted, it seems that playing well doesn’t matter that much. The game is brute-forceable: if you just spam the controls with no rhythm whatsoever, you can still pass the level.

I found the music rather repetitive, and your actions don’t really interact with the music. Picking up the molecules just makes a “tsch” sound but doesn’t add anything musically. Only in the harmonisation phase do your actions really seem to relate to the melody.

The story is just some generic stills and objects from human life. I got bored with it after 70 minutes, didn’t play through all of it. It’s not terrible but I wouldn’t recommend it. Maybe it’s more fun with motion controls. I played with a Switch pro controller.
