Before I begin, I will say that I have indeed, snailed.

The game is very good, but it has its problems.
With the positives first, The AI is very good and well executed. Speaks on virtually everything you do on the first play-through and on subsequent play-throughs the AI gets used a lot more trap-wise. I can see why people might not like it though. I liked the visuals, nothing breathtaking but very charming. The music was probably the second-best aspect of the game too. Very well done! And i liked secrets to do with the water pump. Or just... secrets and collectables like that in general in the game. Very nice.

The problems i had...
Puzzles. The ones automatically given to you were too easy and the secret ones were really... REALLY hard. I liked more puzzles like A10.2, where you had to do something else to get the stuff inside and you're rewarded with more challenging platforming. Or the water pump in general. I might be dumb but it wasn't very fun at all. Also, I can agree that some things feel underutilised. But its more of a try everything dont dwell on one game. But even then, the game is very short.

Final verdict? 8.5/10. Would recommend. Story, visuals, music and gameplay were mostly serviceable. But there were some flaws with the game-play that does make it a bit jank in some areas. But i think there is enough challenge and re-playability for the really dedicated. And speedruns of this game will be very interesting i think.
