I would call this game a puzzle game. But I would almost not call it a puzzle game. All you do is try to determine where to walk to, where to stand still, where to let yourself fall down, where to look at, where to swim to and where to fly to. So the only buttons that you use in this game are W, A, S, D. There are no other keyboard buttons that you use and no mouse buttons either. There is absolutely no story in the game. And there is absolutely no explanation of what the meaning is of what you are doing. This game is especially meant for people who like abstract, trippy environments. In that the game does well. This is one of those cases that I wished it was possible to give a neutral score on Steam. Because that is not possible I give it a thumbs up because I did enjoy progressing through the game although I wished the game had a better focus on puzzles.
