Europa - A beautiful puzzle game with very enjoyable movement
On the moon Europa, a lush terraformed paradise in Jupiter’s shadow, an android named Zee sets out in search of answers. Run, glide and fly across the landscape, solve mysteries in the ruins of a fallen utopia, and discover the story of the last human alive.
They don't let you get very far in the demo but what I did play was very pleasant. When you're running around on foot you slide down hills and can zoom along the surface of water, keeping your character moving and avoiding awkward stoppages as you explore. If you get some air, like with the charged jump or the levitation ability, you can glide gently back to the ground. All of these things make it very fun and satisfying to explore the world.
