Looks neat. I love playing these 2D puzzle platformer type games. The visuals remind me a bit of Rochard, which also ran on Unity, if I remember that correctly.

So what are the chances of this turning into another Building the Bastion kind of series, because I loved that

The dev is based in sweden , so it would probably be more trouble than it's worth.

This seems like it would be really cool on the Vita.

Also I really like the music in the trailer.

Artsy but engaging. The problem with the new platformers being released these days is that they're more frustrating for me than fun (I'm lookin' at you 'Splosion Man), but this looks like it could add just enough challenge to keep me entertained without switching off the game in irritation.

Looks interesting. After the first few seconds, I was expecting another mellow, atmospheric platformer in the style of Limbo, but I'm glad it's actually looking a lot crazier. And I love the art style, it has something of that pseudo-retro style from The Iron Giant.

I like how Giant Bomb actually makes the exclusive reveal matter. To send it live, to have a chat with the people about it, to really deliver it as something cool and new. It does not feel the same when IGN for example has an exclusive wich can be a trailer too but then that is it. It does not feel as special. Well done crew!

If the rest of the music in the game is that awesome I'm sold on that alone. Looking forward to seeing more on this game.

If I had to combine two games together, I probably would have picked Limbo and Portal 2 as well.

The personality I get from this trailer is really reminiscent of another indie dev, Blendo Games (Flotilla, Atom Zombie Smasher). Quirky and artsy like many indie games, but understated.
 
The gameplay already looks solid to me, but the indie market is somewhat saturated with high-quality platformers. I hope this stands out at next year's shows.
