Music of the Spheres Greenlight page
Music of the Spheres is a puzzle-shooter, to be released for the PC on April 16th. In it you can fire bouncing bullets. When they bounce, a glockenspiel note is played depending on the direction of the bounce.
Puzzles are designed to show you as many interesting things as possible, as concisely as possible. Nothing is repeated, and nothing is meaningless. Wherever possible, environments are composed to embody some pattern.
”Half-toy, half-puzzle, and wholly delightful, MotS is a joy to tinker with. You’ll be left scratching your head sometimes, but always wanting more.”
~Rich Stanton, eurogamer
“There’s a beauty in the apparent simplicity of the design, which like much that is contemplative is far more complex than it first appears. It’s somehow reassuring to play a puzzle game that is entirely disinclined to frustrate, hoping to create mindful, soothing spaces instead.”
~Adam Smith, Rockpapershotgun
“Really enjoying it”
~Jonathan Blow, designer, Braid
