The premise, in the publisher's words
140 is a platform game developed and published by Carlsen Games. It was directed by Jeppe Carlsen, who previously worked on Playdead's Limbo. The game is described as a "minimalistic platformer", using electronic music to create synesthesia as the player makes their way through four different levels, each with their own soundtrack. The gameplay has been compared to other similar games which involve music synchronization, such as Sound Shapes and the Bit.Trip series, with difficult platforming elements comparable to games in the Mega Man series. The game was released for Microsoft Windows, Mac, and Linux in October 2013, on Xbox One in August 2016, on PlayStation 4 and Wii U in September…
