haha, glad you enjoyed the experience! I don't have VR, so only played it normally, but it still was one of those game truly unique experiences that's literally out of this world... exactly as you said xD "being abducted and forced to learn to play an alien musical instrument before getting unceremoniously dumped back on Earth."

I actually loved the final final boss... I did not cover this in my article, as I did not want to SPOIL it for anyone picking the game. Why I loved it?

It really made me feel like escaping against the will of the devil... but then I beaten the devil, and the only one left is the... The Track Maker, The Game Creator, The Developer Avatar... He of course would be so powerful and desperate to keep me there, that the whole fabric of the game would warp and bend. And the music? here? It's not needed, maybe only to also become another challenge, another trap, as the only thing needed now... is for you to STAY!

It was like, I mastered everything and he had nothing else to stop me with, but changing the actual rules of the game... still, I would go on, so panic would set in, like in the way the last moves are sent, completely chaotic, faster, faster, faster, until the moment of... .

Truly spectacular! By beating the game, you have broken the game, this is why all goes to white, the track ends and then... nothing. So, hard and unfair? yeah, that was the point, you're a beetle that is breaking the freaking fabric of its world! xD

Guess I love reading into my games :))

PS. did you notice that part of the game is LEVEL infinity? you are NOT supposed to be there, and definitely not supposed to go beyond it xD

PPS. Loved the article! awesome work

I like the idea of a final boss ‘breaking the rules’ in some way but a lot of the time, in practice, it ends up just pissing me off. I felt the same way about one of the final bosses in Void Stranger who kind of cheats a little bit and I didn’t realize you could kind of cheat back.
