6.5/10
The gravity shifting mechanic is very unique and interesting, but unfortunately the mission design is pretty barebones and fails to do anything engaging with its mechanics. Combat in particular stands out as being dull and repetitive.
It does build a fairly interesting world, although it stops short of actually explaining what's really going on behind the scenes. Maybe that's something being saved for the sequel.
The comic book style cutscenes are very well done and a joy to look at. Even the character portraits when reading in-game dialogue are really nice to look at. However, the actual in-game environments don't live up to this standard, and are in fact pretty ugly.
Overall a solid game that's worth playing just to experience its unique movement mechanics.
