Upfront I have to say that I cannot recommend this as a GAME - if all you want is an amazingly trippy ride with lots of electronic music and often amazing visuals tho, this delivers in spades!

The problems with the "game" come down to poor controls, poor level design and a general feeling that even the developers weren't sure what they were making (so many game modes which vary from frustrating to - erm - a bit boring...)

The controls are a BIG issue - I feel like I'm fighting with them rather than actually controlling something - the keyboard defaults are scattered at random (cursors to steer - is it 1995!?) - games like this usually excel on a pad but I couldn't make that work either.

The levels are packed with stuff you don't have time to see and avoid and rules often change arbitrarily - you will therefore be repeating lots of bits until you figure-out the "pattern". In fairness, checkpoints are frequent and there's no penalty for mistakes in the 'Story' but I do feel some playtesting and tightening-up would have gone a long way here (some of the Workshop levels are better than the developer's own work!!)

So this really is a trippy visual ride more than a game - I enjoyed at least some of my experience but it also frustrated me hence the "Not Recommended"

YMMV perhaps
