cool game! The mechanics are fairly simple, letting the player focus on the vibe instead. I liked the dual representation of the theme as a ''rope loop'' but also a painful ''cycle of life''. The music fit the atmosphere very well and the art is amazing and drives the point home. Loved this short experience, good work !

How does your game fit the theme?
We integrated the theme in our game mechanic, through rope movement. Visually, looping tapes introduce each level. Looking at all these taped memories, the environment is different, and yet the action is the same. Thus, the loop becomes a representation of a passive life, mindlessly following a system, giving in to the loop, contributing to a cycle of power dynamics.
