Solitary Steam Charts & Stats

I wanted to love this game. It seemed like it would be a short, casual walking simulator with unnervingly surreal themes. Just how I like them. However, after a couple of minutes, it turned out to be a platformer. A frustratingly difficult one, for me at least. Maybe it could be enjoyable for someone who actually likes platformers and is reasonably good at them, but I spent something like two hours mainly angry and disappointed. Sunken cost fallacy, sheer bullheadedness and the will to base my negative review on the entire game kept me on trying. It was totally unexpected, and in a bad way. Even sertting my personal sucking at platformers aside, this game is quite poorly made. The most glaring things are the voice lines that repeat if you step too close to doors (is that what is meant by "a dynamic narrator who evolves with your choices"?), and the lack of any built-in way to quit the game once you have started - Escape key does nothing, even at the end of credits where you are stuck at the developer's logo and the music stops abruptly. Also I would say that the game is not nearly as strange or surreal as it is advertised to be.
