Games I've Completed

This is a game I got in a Humble Bundle. I hadn’t heard of it before and have just gotten around to playing it. It’s a story-focused puzzle platformer, there are a set of individual screens where you have to figure out how to get to the top right using a series of platforms. There are several different types of platforms that behave differently, from disappearing after you jump off of them to teleporting you to another with the same pattern.

The puzzles were very easy, and there aren’t many of them. It feels like the main focus of the game is a mystery story. The story itself felt extremely contrived though, and I didn’t think it was told very well. I didn’t really connect with it as you don’t really get to know the characters. At the end it just explains who everyone is, what their motivations are and how it all connects but I don’t feel like it tied together convincingly.
