Big fat thumbs down from me. You spend huge chunks of time holding down W, and occasionally jumping. There's little danger, except when you miss a jump and it wastes your time. There's so little game, yet a lot of walking to do.

The problem is that even with the limited mechanics it could perhaps make up for it in immersion or atmosphere? But it doesn't really, other than a pretty decent score. I don't know anything more about me or my mission in the last 3 hours than I learned in the trailer. It hasn't developed any character or given me a reason to give a ♥♥♥♥ about anyone. But it's called Lifeless Planet, so you think the planet would be the star, but it's just such a boring place to be. The story itself has been pretty meh so far, and the collectables dull so finding things isn't a reward, and generally it takes so long to trek anywhere off the path that you won't want to bother.

And what's the point of the oxygen mechanic exactly? You're running low! Quick, get to the container that's really close and probably on the main path!

Fantastic trailer though.
