I feel like I'm going through a molecular hyperdrive, or that I just unlocked a new dimension U.U I'm intrigued!

Thank you for the compliment. I was going for the feeling of an endless path. I know naming the work Tantalean is a bit of a stretch but my experience during the jam was the reason why I named it this way. During the jam, I came up with lots of cool idea but mid way through, I couldn’t get that kind of feeling right. All of my scrapped ideas aren’t just that magical for me, they were missing a kind of unknown sensation or too generic and stereotypical.

This looks nice but I really don't get how this goes with the theme or even stands as its own piece. Better luck next time :)
