Endlight

This is like video game that's like a real video game.

Very fun! A great game to pop into on your lunch break every day!

Found it thanks to PC Gamer. In short, this game is a gimmick. You play through its levels once and if you ever want to play through them again, you have to wait for the Right to Replay, which is exactly what it sounds like and happens once a year. That's it. That's the whole point of the game. It's interesting, but there's not much to it. That's not to say simple games can't be engaging, but Endlight relies on its gimmick far more than anything else. There's nothing here that'll keep most people's attention, which is probably why it still has less than 50 overall reviews (as of me writing this one) even after the monumental PC Gamer article. I will say, however, that it's alright to pass the time when... you're working from home and have *some* downtime but not enough to dedicate to a more complex game. Not that I played it while working from home. I would never! I think the concept of a game you can only play through once is interesting, but I also think a more compelling game could make better use of it. Thumbs up because even if I'm not impressed by the game itself, I'm still in awe of the dev's dedication and creativity. This is the sort of niche experiment that might end up being the corner stone for some genre-defining project some ten years from now.
