@Felthry Oh my gosh. It's a masterpiece.

The trailer is just 60 straight seconds of the third level of difficulty.

@starkatt i don't think we have the reflexes to play a game like that and it would probably cause uncomfortable levels of stress to try, but the music does sound pretty great

@Felthry @starkatt the soundtrack is available on the artist's Bandcamp if that interests: chipzel.co.uk/album/super-hexa

(I mention because I bought a copy a while ago)

@packbat @Felthry Apparently Cavanaugh got to the True Ending live on stage once, and then quipped "The number of people who have seen this just went up by a sizable percentage".

@starkatt @Felthry I remember hearing about that! Apparently he had a dev copy on hand that turned off collisions in case he couldn't beat it first try during a live presentation in front of an audience, but he beat it first try during a live presentation in front of an audience.

@packbat @Felthry I just picked it back up for a few minutes and was able to get to about 50 seconds on the first difficulty.

Which feels pretty good given I hadn't touched it in many months, and my record is 67 seconds.

@packbat @Felthry But really though, in order to play effectively you need to almost stop trying to process anything that is happening. Just let your mind absorb the entirety of the screen, and react without conscious thought. It's kind of beautiful.

@Felthry The thing about it is, I have never been able to play more than 15 or 20 minutes at a stretch because WOW the cognitive load. But, there's always tiny bits of improvements.
