I agree that there are some problems with gameplay, but as a fellow developer on Steam, I know how hard gameplay is to nail down correctly. There was obviously a tremendous amount of love and vision put into the product. It really delivers the dream world aspect and I love the 'larger than life' statues and structures. This is like a David Lynch film -which is a TON for me to say seeing as he's my favorite director - because not everyone will love it, not everyone will get it and not everyone will get through it, but you can't say it's not compelling and original.. The good: great visuals, nice open world.The bad: gameplay can get boring in a short time, not always very engaging, not terribly challenging, not enough drive to it.. If you want to experience the sense of incredible heights and vertigo follow the direction to the dracula type of castle with all the amazing lightning boltz,.. Game was mediocre, but figured I could force my way through for two hours. Spent far too long trying to bounce a giant energy ball into a quad of pillars (two times, actually). Finally got past that part, then ball went onto a ledge that I fell past, so could no longer reach it. Watched in horror as it rolled off the other side of the ledge, never to be seen again. Wasn't about to start this extrememly frustrating sequence over again, and since no body bothered to implement a save feature (this particular chapter was far too long and frustrating), I quit. So, in summation, a mediocre game that quickly turns in to frustrating pice of crap, basically due to extemely poor design decisions.. I can honestly say this is one of the best games I've played on the Vive. It's beautiful, funny, with a great soundtrack and an unrivalled sense of exploration. So many games offer escapism, but the worlds they contain are so predictable. This has a sense of genuine awe, wonder and alienation. This game offers slick locomotion, simple but rewarding puzzles and an amazing sense of scale.The only thing I'd criticise is the lack of a save option; the bookmark system is a bit obtuse. But really, that's it in terms of negatives. For this price, it's utterly essential. Can't wait to see what else these devs come up with.. I do like the music, old school sci fi feel and looks it to. Like dune or something. Game fire explosions are awesome. Graphics are fairly good. But the game has no save feature, nothing realy happens, you walk around for hours and might find a lame !@# puzzle and thats it. Shooting is just a weird beach ball like fireball sphere. 20 dollars is quite a high step.. Starts out fairly intriguing with a big open map, but quickly turns into the most god-awful buggy, finnicky, messy gameplay possible as you are tasked with pushing a giant ball around by shooting it. I have not been able to finish it because of bugs (most often the ball falling through surfaces and out of the accessible world). Skip it.. Decent alien planet feel. Half the game is getting from point A to point B. This is the part you're wandering around looking at stuff, which in my opinion is the better half of the game. The next part is guiding a ball around, which can get tiresome. Took around 1.7 hours to beat. Controls didn't make me sick at all. Not a bad game, just not much to it. With all the games out now it's hard to recommend at this price.
