Duet is a minimalistic reflex-based game with a great soundtrack.
Even though it can be very difficult at times you’ll feel yourself get better as the difficulty goes up, giving you that great feeling of satisfaction.
I highly recommend it

You control 2 orbs and avoid white bars by rotating around them. The only controls are turning left or right as the 2 orbs are connected and move at the same time, or tethered in symbiosis as the makers like to call it.
There are 9 story chapters 8 epilogue chapters, where each stage starts with a psychologically layered line, making it quite mysterious, maybe even thought provoking for some. There are also various challenges, encore chapters and speedruns. Even though the story chapters are relatively simple you'll still have a lot of content to play after that, getting a highscore on endless play or practicing your speedrun for example.
After you have played for a while so many movements in the game will come naturally and it'll almost feel as if you're moving automatically and the game is just an extension of your arm, making it a very immersive experience.
