I like the idea, but the sliders reducing to zero while the game played felt a bit like any change I had on the scenario wasn't fully real. I understand that just rotating the map so the plane falls into the ring isn't how the game should be played, but each effect only being brief felt a bit fleeing as far as "arranging the environment" goes.

I also have to say (respectfully!) that not including enemies in the game or the concept of death at all does technically 'fit' the theme, but it isn't a very strong engagement with it.

I love the mechanics so much, though they weren't the most intuitive thing in the world. I think if you make what you're supposed to be doing a bit more clear with a tutorial you have a really good concept on your hands!

Rotating the stage was probably my favorite part, super fun mechanic that you can expand on in future projects if you wanted. 

Neat idea. The rotation trick makes it engaging.

Really interesting concept, even if I'm bad at it. Check out my review at https://www.twitch.tv/scalphamission
