I just want to leave a brief recommendation as a counterpoint to the negative reviews. This game is a really good puzzle platformer with unique ideas and mechanics.

I cannot share the common criticisms in the reviews at all. The controls are fully functional, the platforming is tight, the aiming system works fine both with controller and mouse. The difficulty and learning curve is fine. There are a few reviews of people with less than an hour or two in the game complaining about pixel precise alignments etc. These people are, no point in mincing words, just wrong and didn't understand the room they were in and missed a mechanic or alternative way to progress, which is pretty normal and even encouraged to exist in a puzzle platformer. I can confidently say, 5h in and not really getting stuck anywhere, that no room required an absurdly precise solution that the controls didn't support.

I find it a shame that the game went far enough under the radar that a few of those reviews bring the rating of this little gem down so heavily.

It shines when the various mechanics combine and open up the solution space dramatically. I'm playing together with a friend and the amount of times we found quite different solutions from each other is surprising. One optional room stands out where after a back and forth of ideas we ended up with six different ways to solve the puzzle, all distinctly different from each other.

The game isn't a masterpiece and has some minor issues, none of which have detracted majorly from my positive experience. Sometimes it's a bit unclear how close the ageless dash needs to be to a target.
The escapes are a bit trial and error because of the time pressure and checkpoints being more scarce, but aren't a massive difficulty spike and fulfill their function of changing up the gameplay for a bit as well as progressing the narrative.
The biggest problem for me is that I missed one relic in an area, know which one it is, visually, in the relic garden, but can't do anything with that information to find it. The best thing I could do is check back every single room which I'm not interested in doing.

All in all, this game is way better than its small and mediocre reviewing would indicate. In the indie puzzle platformer genre which I'm quite fond of, I'd rate it 4/5, under the absolute highlights like Celeste which I'm sure was a big inspiration, but it's definitely a good game worth the experience.
