Completed with 100% of achievements unlocked. Simple and short, but really great fun. Refunct is a first-person platform game, with the primary goal simply being to reach a series of target points in an environment that gradually develops in complexity as you progress, seeing new sets of blocks/pillars rising from the water that surrounds the area. To keep things interesting, there are a few special block types - primarily to give a boosted jump - and a wall-jumping mechanic allowing longer and higher jumps to be achieved. A few collectibles scattered around the environment give a satisfying secondary objective, never being particularly hard to find.

Taking only about 30 minutes to an hour to complete, Refunct is undoubtedly a short experience, but its price takes account of that, and means that the limited gameplay mechanics remain fun and satisfying rather than becoming overly repetitive.

I'm torn on this one. On the one hand, it strikes me very much as a "student's first game" sort of project, with very simple graphics, no story to speak of, minimal graphics, etc. On the other hand, it presents itself very well. The music is well-fitting and relaxing, of the sort of genre that I like, the graphics are crisp and the lighting makes it feel not repetetive despite it all just being the same blocks everywhere. I 100% completed it with all achievements and moving at a leisurely pace in only 26 minutes. I don't think I'm going to go back to it. If I'd bought this game on an impulse or heard it talked up somewhere and bought it at full price, I'd be upset with my purchase. But since I got it in a humble bundle full of other games I'd had my eye on, I'm kind of okay with it. I don't know if I agree with the "overwhelmingly positive" rating it's being given though. It's a good game, keep in mind, but the question being asked by this review system is if I would RECOMMEND it. And I'd have to say no. It's too bare-bones, too much like a student project or a freeware game. I enjoyed it, but I would not recommend it.
