Frustrating and not always fun, but still somehow addictive, with a cool style
I have no idea why I enjoyed this game as much as I did, but I have to say I got strangely addicted to it.

I bought this game because I like big platforms suspended in the middle of nowhere. (I have a thing for them - It triggers some sort of innate fear in me which I am drawn to) I also had a friend who was into this sort of, uh, "surreal" visual/storytelling style (read: nonsense) so I have a sort of fondness for it even though it's not really my type of thing.
But the narrative is actually pretty cool. I never really got tired of listening to the nonsensical robot voice. There are clear themes. It is actually trying to say something.
In terms of gameplay, my god this game is hard, and quite frustrating to be honest. Levels are long, and one mistake equals death. And you need really, really precise timing for some of the twists and turns. There were a few levels that I just played over and over again, dying dozens of times. It wasn't always fun. It sucks to beat 95% of a level no problem but have difficulty with one turn right at the end and have to keep redoing everything.
And then some levels were strangely easy.
But I guess I'm easy to please because just turning left and right was enough gameplay to keep me hooked.
Oh, and the soundtrack is fantastic! That's part of what makes playing the same level over and over again okay.
Neat game. Very cheap, so, honestly, try it if you think it looks cool.
