Played for about 30 minutes this evening.

I can tell its very short based on the map completion percentage I'm at although that doesn't really bother me.

Game feels like a mix of Limbo and the exploration part of a metroid style game although it probably isn't really as good as either so far. That's not to say I don't like it so far. I kinda do in a see the next piece of good art or exploration way but it hasn't hooked me the way Limbo did for example. Great art style. You can tell a lot of work was put into that. A bit less was put on the gameplay side so far.

I liked the demo, but yeah, I noticed the completion percentage seemed kinda high and wondered if it would be a short game.

Probably just go back and finish Microbot instead.  It has kick-ass upgrades.
