I started enjoying it after the tutorial was over. Puzzle platformer with 2 different characters with different abilities is a god idea. But the tutorial is way, way too long and kinda spoils the rest of the game. I can see how it can filter some people.
Being able to control companions directly is a blessing and works really, really well, I haven't touched the "command" buttons since the tutorial.
The art is... I guess it's cohesive? It's an assault on the eyes, and the difference between background and foreground objects is minimal, but you can get used to it. It certainly is weird, but that wouldn't be an issue if the obstacles didn't blend it with the background objects.
Didn't really care about the story to be honest. It's kinda both there and not there. Dunno how to describe it.
But I can see this game being an interesting puzzle platformer.
