The transitions are seamless with nice integration of the sound effects. The hand drawn artwork is very unique but the software based animations feel clunky. Controls aren't intuitive as I would like but after reading the tutorial I was able to maneuver Icarus up and down. Gameplay is sluggish and there is a lot of waiting. I did appreciate the absence of jarring cuts from scene to scene as everything from tutorials to different stages melts together like butter—complete with gorgeous weather changes!
