So the game is really not that much. A single screen that seems like the cut intro to the rest of the stage before being warped into the clear room. The clear room itself is pretty good, the black tree on a dark blue background gives it an eerie, intriguing atmosphere.

But even despite how nothing this game is, there is still one quirk that makes it interesting! The game skips the file select screen and jumps straight into gameplay when you press Shift on the title screen. It also autosaves you once you go into the Clear screen.
So when you beat the game once, that's it! You are trapped in the dark tree dimension, and can never go back to the green screen with the diagonal.
For how simple the clear screen is, being trapped in there elevates it from "Serviceable" to "Legitimately Interesting".

Made by the same person who made 'I wanna be the Surge' (in the same day as well).

This game has the same tendencies as the other game (no music, monochrome title screen, no loading screen, just a single screen of generic needle), except there are few upgrades. There is some generic tileset and clear screen does exist.

Gameplay is generic, but I will say that having an auto-diagonal at the end, where you just need to hold right and jump key did make me enjoy this game slightly more. But also the difficulty is pretty low because of that as well.

Also why are there spikes down to the left? Once again - weird spike aesthetics out there.

There is not anything else for me to add. This is still a nothing-burger of a game. Or rather 'cockamamie'.

Would not recommend.
