I love the piano jazz backing music. Reminded me to listen to the Charlie Brown Christmas album while putting my tree up

Thoughts on tutorial level - it stumped me too, and I think a lot of that had to do with the fact that stepping of the button immediately drops you into the magnetic field. This made my brain intuit "button make magnet go up" instead of "button turn on magnet field". I wonder how players would have responded to a different level design, putting some distance between the button and the field. Putting the staircase level first does seem like the best solution!

I'm excited for you, and looking forward to playing the final game! If for some reason people aren't contacting you about composing music, I would be up for it, but I'm sure you will be contacted by people with waaaay more experience than me.

Also, Magnus is totally adorable. Would buy game just for him.

Great episode of this series, and love that things are going well. I was sad to see the pinwheel-y O didn't pulse in time to the music anymore during the intro! Liked the new song though.

I kinda hate it when I find out a creator I like is on Nebula, because it's (almost) always the most random possible coincidences, because god forbid actually advertising the ad-free platform that's owned by the creators that fuel it. Ugh.
