You already know it. At the time it was released, it was mostly the game you play while trying to scour Steam for free singleplayer games, and I guess there are worse options that you could've picked. It really is mostly a joke game as soon as the punchline appears, but it's nice; certainly memorable.
edit: i do not stand by this review, leaving it up as incentive to replace it one day. my rating is the same, i just hate being petty and this game didn't really deserve it

no dude you don't get it it's like a metaphor for life bro. like the wind and spiderwebs are like your challenges dude but we all die bro. it goes so deep. Man, nobody gives a shit that life is insignificant on the cosmic scale of things. It's a meaningless moral if nothing's built on top of it (this game doesn't build on top of it) and also there is no fucking way you're trying to tell that tale through a game where you hold up for 5 minutes and fly into a lightbulb. Come on now.
The atmosphere of the ending is honestly well done so I'll give it that, at least

"The Plan" is an indie game that, while charming and visually appealing, ultimately left me feeling like I had wasted my time. The game tells the story of a fly as it embarks on a journey of self-discovery, and while the narrative is cute and endearing, the gameplay itself is lackluster.
The main issue with "The Plan" is that there isn't much gameplay to speak of. The entire experience can be completed in a matter of minutes, and there isn't much in the way of challenge or engagement. This makes it difficult to become invested in the story or the characters, and ultimately leaves the player feeling unsatisfied.
While "The Plan" is a visually striking game, with beautiful hand-drawn art and a charming soundtrack, these elements aren't enough to make up for the lack of substance. The game feels more like an interactive art piece than a fully-fledged game, and while that might be appealing to some, it left me feeling like I had wasted my time.
"The Plan" is a game that I cannot recommend. While the story is cute and the visuals are impressive, the lack of meaningful gameplay makes it difficult to become invested in the experience. There are many other indie games out there that offer a more satisfying and engaging experience, and I would suggest looking elsewhere for your gaming fix. 3/10

Uma experiência única e interessante, vale bastante a pena jogar tanto se você quiser se distrair por 5 minutos quanto se você for um caçador de conquistas.

A unique and interesting experience, it's well worth playing whether you want to be distracted for 5 minutes or if you're an achievement hunter.

Es un juego realmente corto, se podría decir que es más como una experiencia, que en pocas palabras es bonita e interesante de jugar. Su sonido ambiental logra el cometido de relajar, sobre todo porque las mecánicas tampoco son muy desafiantes que digamos. Concluye de forma graciosa y algo inesperado.
