I wasn't really sure what to expect from this game judging by the screenshots/trailer on the storepage.
So here are my thoughts after completing it in case other people also struggle with the same issue.

In my opinion it's one of those games that are more focused on the art than on the actual gameplay.
The world looks beautiful and together with the soundtrack it offers a very relaxing and nice experience.
The photo mode is also extremely good with tons of filters that you can adjust. If you activate one of the filters you can actually play the game with this filter on, so you get some very crazy graphics.

The gameplay part on the other hand is rather simple. It often feels similar to a walking simulator, because nothing can hurt you and most of the time you just glide through space or slowly walk on a planet.
But there are also some nice small mechanics mixed it in, like situations where you have to press specific button combinations in a small amount of time or some cipher puzzles wich are fun to solve.
It also has a story, but it's nothing groundbreaking.

I played with a controller since the game seems to be designed that way.
I had only a problem with an achievement that required you to fly through multiple rings. I think I tried it around 30 minutes to get this with the controller, but there are often rings that require a very sharp curve and I just couldn't do it with the controller. So I switched to keyboard & mouse for that and after getting used to the controls I got it in like 5 minutes.

Overall I recommend the game, but keep in mind it's more focused on the art part and it's also just 3-5 hours long depending on how much optional stuff you do :)
