Gameplay

59 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
tldr; fun, well performing, movement-mechanic based game with a surreal(?) and interesting story
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
35 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The skill ceiling is high, but it still feels really good to someone like me who isn't perfect at it. (unrelated, the sound design and main character's design is also excellent and the game looks fantastic graphically and the atmosphere is great. well done!) However, I really do feel the need to complain about a few things.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
32 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
One combat encounter I really enjoyed however was that one area that consists of a small maze in which you're pursued by a bipedal foe that shoots lasers at you and you had to learn to bunny hop in an enclosed space to evade and attack it.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
25 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game also manages to tell a pretty compelling little narrative on top of all of that, psychological horror Bionicles beyond human comprehension and all that.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Performance with the default graphics configuration is considered suitable, and the game can run successfully on SteamOS.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
14 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The movement tech seems very well optimized with a skill ceiling that gets really high if you want it to, the only limiting factor for something like this is YOUR level of skill.
