This is a game to move two characters, □ and △. I felt “particularity” about individual reactions such as the effect of changing or moving a character.
While we tend to increase the number of various elements and expressions when we aim at a cyberspace-like world view, this game specializes in the motif of the symbols □ and △ and restricts the number of colors to the minimum hand has succeeded to pursue the essence of the motif.
In addition, while the purpose to “go for the goal” is the same, there are differences in gravity and operation method between the characters and the influence of those factors is balanced quite well.
Furthermore, each stage is designed with appropriate difficulty level and new discoveries; it is an excellent game that has exquisitely combined “balanced” and “particularity”.

Work Introduction
There are square “Forks” that moves right-left and up-down under gravity and triangular “Tride” that can move freely.
This is a puzzle game to lead the two characters to the goal switching and alternately controlling them.
The game is particular about “programmable cool appearance”, which cannot be expressed only with the resources.
The two characters have respective area with corresponding color; you can take a block with the same color present on the stage into your area to materialize it and advance using it as a foothold.
However, it can be an obstacle if you materialize it without thought.
Which character in which order to move will be the key to win the game.
Lead both two characters together to the goal to clear a stage.
This is a sophisticated game sensitively directed in every detail including post effects such as Bloom and Glitch and the motion at character change and jump and finished with cyberspace-like world view.
