Very relaxing. It plays well on Steam Deck but you have to tweak the controls a little bit. I would actually pay a couple bucks for this game.

This game was nowhere near long enough.

It's kind of an asymmetrical puzzle-lite/casual platformer, but unlike other games in this genre that I've played, it's done in a 3D environment, third person. And every moving entity in this game is made with origami*.

If that paragraph doesn't make sense, let me hit my target word count a little. You've got two characters, some kind of bipedal pillbug and a crane (as in bird). The pillbug can roll and squeeze through narrow gaps and can also huck little paper airplanes. The crane is faster, can double-jump and glide. You'll use one until you can activate a device that lets the other progress, and then swap and repeat.

The puzzles are not very hard and it goes out of its way to highlight them to make the solution clear. The final boss being maybe the only exemption, and it took a little bit of work to figure it out. There were more puzzles than I expected as well, so I had more types of challenge to contend with.

I really liked the first level, set on a set of shelves in a dusty room, with various bits and bobs I could push off like I was an origami cat. It sort of leaves that theme behind for the rest of the game, but it really was a powerful opener.

As a commercial product, having more origami PCs with different abilities, and more origami enemies (again, with different abilities) would have been nice. I'll be keeping my eye on these guys in the hopes they do something else in this vein.

So, in the whole, considering the price (as in free), I was beyond satisfied with my "purchase". It's a nicely-realized little slice of game, and I think it's got legs to be made up into something bigger.

Obligatory self-advertising stuff here, it's on my profile. It'd be great if you checked it, etc. People who read these things are my kind of people; I am literally writing this for readers (and for myself). So you know where to find more blathering, (and more links to games I like).

* Obligatory footnote: There's a blob and one of the enemies fires staples. Neither are origami. So I guess I should have written, "MOST every moving entity is origami," but that doesn't have quite the same punch.
