Yo! Dev here. Just wanted to say thanks for this, glad you appreciated the game :D In fact, those two very similar puzzles that start at 5:43? You guys "got" EXACTLY what I was trying to do there. I've really been worrying about that part recently, but this made me feel great.

Also the prize goes to the people who said "clarinet" :)

While this game isn't my thing, I did love that part.

So is this like Evangelion? Am I trying to prevent the third impact?

What even is this? Such a bizarre idea, it's not even an idea it's just like throw balls at angels.

Eh whatever, it's kind of cool

I think the puzzle aspect of it is neat looking, but visually this game looks really dumb and bad.

Pretty sure it's a clarinet in the background music. Game looks okay, though the sound the angels make is kinda annoying.

The aesthetic isnt really pleasing, but it looks fun to figure out and play. Simple yet effective.

Yo dudes, you got to figure out those angles so you can hit those angels.

On a more serious note, I can't tell if the people referencing that Symphony X song think that the phrase "Music of the Spheres" originated in that song or not. I certainly hope not.

@bisonhero: It did not, the "Music of the Spheres" is a concept from antiquity that refers to how the orbiting of planets is a kind of music :) (at least that is my interpretation of it)

I know! It's quite a beautiful metaphysical idea. I hope most people know that, and aren't just attributing it to some heavy metal band lyrics from the past few years.

Music sounds a lot more Clarinet. This looks like a really weird looking game. "Music of the Spheres" makes me think of the Ascent of Man.

I'd have tried shooting balls off in that last level to see if there was something hidden offscreen for the balls to bounce off
