Very interesting concept that really doesn't get explored much. I like the way it looks, I like the tunes, and I like the drawn aspects of the cutscenes. Other than that it's pretty rough. It controls very poorly, often plodding and sluggish, and frequently glitchy. I got softlocked multiple times in a 3 hour playthrough. The narrative is garbage - it's uneven, it's trite, it doesn't resonate. The voice acting is really bad despite the actors attached.

The puzzle sections are uneven too, but they're the most enjoyable part - unfortunately it feels like you spend a solid third of the game being dragged into poorly written cutscenes. I think this is a decent game with exactly as much meaning if you cut out every bit of floating text or voiceover.
