I played and finished this over the course of a trip abroad (conference travel) that had a few long plane flights. I really thought I had written about it (I guess I didn't...), so here's what I remember of the experience:

a. I was really impressed by the polish in both the game's visuals as well as the gameplay. I had assumed this was a "low budget indie game with lots of heart". It turns out I was right(?) but it has a lot more to it than that - mainly the combination of polish in visuals and gameplay is what surprised me.

b. The jelly blob stuff (the character you play most of the time with) reminded me in a good way of Loco Roco.

c. I think there was some interesting variety in levels/gameplay?
