An excellent exploration-based platformer with puzzle elements, a series of upgrades, and a fully connected open world.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
33 of 259 sampled reviews raised it
It takes the simple idea of lighting up floors/walls/ceilings by touching them, throws in a few special tile types such as one-way paths and elevators, and with just the abilities to jump and teleport gives you quite a bit of variety in puzzle design.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
20 of 259 sampled reviews raised it
The difficulty balance of the puzzles is often spot-on, giving you plenty of those fantastic "eureka moments" as you light up the rooms and figure the solutions out.
Story

Simple mechanics, well balanced puzzles, satisfying progression, and a simple story that blends with the mechanics.
