Game Information
The game is designed to change the way players approach, manipulate, and surmise the possibilities in a given environment; similar to how Half-Life® 2's Gravity Gun innovated new ways to leverage an object in any given situation.
Players must solve physical puzzles and challenges by opening portals to maneuvering objects, and themselves, through space.

Review Note:
There is a video tutorial online you can follow to compile this game from a source code leak natively for 64 bit apple silicon. It runs very well with no issues, but does not integrate with steam. You still need to own the game and have its files to compile.
