TLDR; Overall a good puzzle platformer with decent story, good graphics and audio which has 5-6 hours of gameplay but some caveats here and there.

The graphics were the highlight for me - the main character is adorable and looks great hopping through a variety of beautiful environments.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
26 of 85 sampled reviews raised it
A simply gorgeously-built world and a hauntingly beautiful soundtrack complement the gameplay.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
20 of 85 sampled reviews raised it
Sound design I think is decent, nothing too spectacular but its not bad either.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
12 of 85 sampled reviews raised it
The mechanics of the title are very well-designed; as the game progresses more are added occasionally, which changes up the gameplay and increases the puzzle difficulty as more varied mechanics come into play.
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
6 of 85 sampled reviews raised it
Although you get used to it quickly, I'd recommend a gamepad, it's simply more fun.
