I saw this thing 3 GDCs ago at the experimental game session and finally got to play it myself this past GDC. The developer has a fantastic explanation about how spring makers have to actually make him a custom spring because he keeps managing to wear out normal, consumer springs. I still want to buy my own kit some…

The gameplay is 1-dimensional, it’s real life representation is not. Think Mario Bros. that was, as far as we know, 2-dimensional, but it’s real life representation (NES, cartridge) was, like the dinosaurs, 3-dimensional.

While it isn’t in a physical sense, it is one dimensional from a game-play sense. You can only move along a single axis or ‘dimension’.

I keep hearing about this game, I wanna play it so much, dammit!
