Steam review snapshots
Combined with an amazing soundtrack and the comments from the narrator and the main character, the experience feels very comfortable and atmospheric.The whole world is rendered in soft muted colors, often shades of gray, beige, sepia or dark blue, which support the emotional…The tracks that work best are the classic atmospheric score pieces and the melancholic trip-hop beats.My favorite mechanic is in Act 3, where your shadow can defy gravity, though it can be a bit trippy and confusing…Why it fits
Check it if you want indie filtered by weird, single-player.
