About

MONOWAVE is a puzzle-adventure platformer built around four emotions: happiness, sorrow, anger, and anxiety. Players use each emotion's abilities and pass emotions to other spirits through song to solve puzzles and explore the world. The game supports solo play and two-player local co-op, with one player controlling Mono and the other controlling Prism.
