Seriously, I can't overstate what an amazing game this is.
It's difficult to describe. Think of it as a gorgeous, moving, dynamic watercolor version of Super Mario Bros. combined with time as a completely fluid concept (both gameplay wise and thematically) in a world filled with the most creative puzzles since Portal (possibly even surpassing them in terms of creativity). Not to mention a musical score that will rip your heart out, combined with a tragic story that's unusually mature and complex for what, on the surface, looks like a simple platformer with a time-rewind mechanic.
It's an absolute must-see. Gorgeous game.
