Worth every hour
As most of the reviews have already described, Refunct is in fact about a 30 minute game but don't let the short length convince you to avoid it; the experience is fun and peaceful. In a nutshell, the objective of the game is to go from one point to the next by jumping platform to platform. You know where to go by looking for a red button that emits a red light into the sky. You need to push this button in order to unlock the next path you go on. It is very straightforward and once you get the hang of how the platforming works Refunct will feel sort of like a speedrun. The graphics are surprisingly pretty and there is even a day and night cycle. The music could not be any more fitting as well. It has an ambient electronic sound - I dig it. Achievements are simple to get and only four so it's an easy 100% for the completionists out there. Overall the experience was worth the dollar I spent on it (Thank you Steam summer sale) and at that price, it won't disappoint. UPDATE: Quickly browsing through the game's forums I stumbled upon a guy who asked if it were possible to refund this game after completing it because of how short it was. And the answser to that is of course you can refund it according to Steam's refund policy.. but the question is, WHY BE LIKE THAT? The game is only a few bucks and at this point in time during the summer sale it was knocked down to just under a buck. Why ask for a refund on something so cheap AFTER completing it? The developer only probably makes 70 cents or so after Steam takes its cut anyway. Let's have some decency by not essentially robbing developers like this please.

Although small and unassuming, Refunct is an artistically pleasing, soothing experience

A quiet favourite
Wow. I finished it in 20 minutes, and feel like I got my money's worth. That's kind of odd, really. For such a short game, it feels like a lot of thought went into it. Movement in the game is incredibly fluid, it teaches you the mechanics in smart ways, and the commentary provided by the achievement titles add a layer of wit and punchline to the experience. There isn't much more I can think to say about Refunct, other than to express disappointment that any first-person shooter I play after this is going to feel incredibly restrictive in comparison. The only real complaint I have about the game is technical (although fairly significant): the sensitivity in the game is ridiculously low. I maxed out the sensitivity in the game settings, and still had to fiddle with my mouse to double the DPI before the game felt right. Oh, and why is Shift used instead of LCtrl?
