If you’re looking for something that’ll run without much fuss, here’s a massive list to try. But that’s fine, because there are a ton of great laptop and low-end games available. As it is, it's a demo of the year candidate.We all want to have the best gaming setup, but not everybody can afford to pay thousand-dollar premiums for GPUs. If this was expanded on with an exceptional narrative experience and a few more variations on the mechanics (perhaps boss fights and so on?), then you'd be looking at a game of the year candidate. Portal 2 understood that a concept is one thing but fleshing it out into a masterful experience is quite another SUPERHOT definitely does not understand that. It's a great proof of concept, but that really is all. You'll have fun for a bit after that with the challenge modes and so on, but you'll get around two hours out of this game before you're totally done with it. Story is awful (well, barely exists actually, but what is there is awful), progression is poor and you've seen everything there is to see inside around 20 minutes. Looks cool as hell, with an eye-catching minimalist aesthetic, and has an amazing core mechanic where the enemies only move when you do, Looks cool as hell, with an eye-catching minimalist aesthetic, and has an amazing core mechanic where the enemies only move when you do, creating a puzzle game rather than what you'd expect from an FPS.

In addition, the Mac port is terrible: poor performance, a broken v-sync implementation, and not even an option to play fullscreen (Command+F works, but that is just a hidden shortcut and is not present in the game menus). This is really a $5 game at most, not much longer than a tech demo or a vertical slide. Given what little there is here, I find the price of admission way out of touch. Although the mechanic itself is 'innovative', at the end it is just an extremely small bite-sized snack that doesn't last for more than two hours, yet it manages to be repetitive even in that little time. There are a set of challenges after the single player narrative where you revisit the same levels with some additional limitations that don't really change the experience by much. Since both you and them die in a single hit, there is nothing else to the game. All there is here is a dozen or two of very small maps (often just a single room) where enemies respawn, often just in your face. I hope at some point indies start caring about gameplay mechanics and content, and stop giving me unskippable high-school level dissertations about the meaning of life, complete with spelling and gramatical mistakes. There is just one simple game mechanic that you will master in a few minutes, you'll finish the single player campaign in an hour or two, and the narrative doesn't add much to it other than interrupt the gameplay here and there with the usual postmodernist drivel you've come to expect from pretentious indie game designers. I wanted to love this game, but unfortunately, once you go past the initial presentation, the rest of the package is lacking. I love how there are a lot of extras and easter eggs.
