F.A.Q.
How was the name PMGRP chosen?
Play Mini Gemini Replay PMGRP is a Recursive Acronym, as the last P in PMGRP refers to the game itself. This results in an infinite name that means play again and again, forever.
It also contains imperfect symmetry, as highlighted: Play Mini Ge-Mini Re-Play. This reflects the slight differences during replay mode due to interactions between the player and its future self.
