Perfect game for insomniacs
I'm writing this from the perspective as someone who has gotten 3 stars/rings on every level and perfect scores on many of them. Having played each level a bunch made me think a lot about the developer's intention behind the design of these levels. Night 1 is easy but fun, night 2 is harder but super fun (dream of work being my favorite level in the game). Night 3 is when it things get really interesting to me. After some more active levels featuring the L and R button, the dream about time features only the hold A mechanic, freeing up one hand and allowing the player to prop their head up on the armrest as the most soothing song in the game plays. The dream about the mind can be easily played with your eyes closed, and the game even encourages you to do so in the middle of the level. The dreams about space and nature, while more challenging at first, are also pretty easy to play with your eyes closed once you get the rhythm down. Each time I play through night 3, I find myself wanting to doze off, and it makes sense why the name of the game is Melatonin.

I would be curious to see if anyone reading this uses this game to help them fall asleep. It seems like the perfect game for insomniacs, and that's great game design.

A lot of the Night 3 games definitely feel very entrancing. IMO it actually makes the remix worse than the rest of the games in the chapter, since I'm really focused on each game
