Due to the extremely poor internet conditions recently, I have been randomly playing games out of boredom and loneliness at night. By chance, I found this new release from early January in the cloud - NightSky, and it seems quite satisfactory, so I am recommending it.

What attracts me most about this game is that it incorporates various physical principles, such as friction, rotation, gravity/anti-gravity, bouncing, speed, and the conversion of kinetic and potential energy. Although you are only manipulating a 2D ball, it feels very realistic. Therefore, in the game, you need to unconsciously apply some physical laws, along with some agile operations and mysterious positioning.

The level of freedom in the game is very high, with no time or attempt limits. You can do anything as long as you move the ball to the designated location. The only thing needed is patience, as some levels require repeated attempts.

First, watch a trailer to get a rough idea of its weird 2D silhouette style. The background music is also well done.

The game's storyline is not important, as there are progressive help tips during gameplay and the operations are simple, so there is not much else to say.

I have already gone through the "easy" difficulty, and now I will go through the "hard" difficulty again. Feel free to exchange insights anytime.
