A really interesting concept executed mostly well, and a compelling argument for increased focus with a lower budget.
The combat dragged in the back half but it's simple enough to push through; the story and animation are what shine here and the little making-of feature on the main menu does a good job of putting the game and a lot of its aspects into proper context. In that sense it's a really impressive achievement. Sound design is absolutely top shelf too - the recommendation to wear headphones is a good one, and it goes a lot of the way to making the experience more compelling and immersive.
