amok: Steam daily deal is And Yet It moves:
http://store.steampowered.com/app/18700/ 75% off means £1.99 here. Highly recommended platformer with a unique style. The selling point is that you control the character and rotating the environment at the same time.
SimonG: To be honest, that game is pure BS. Bad design, bad art-style and horrible shoddy controls. Imo, this game runs on the "all indies are good"/"hipster" train. It isn't even unique, but just poorly implemented. This is, next to Bittriprunner, one of the worst indie games I've played. And I'm easy to impress and love indies. I gave it an honest and good try for the achievement, but that game is beyond hope. It is somewhat less excruciating if you mute it though.
Only because something is "artsy" you can't just avoid baisc game design and playtesting. Definitely try the demo first, if you want to waste precious lifetime.
I liked it, it was one of my best platformer last year. I even liked the minimalistic sound design. I liked the whole concept of rotating the environment and the puzzles made out of it.
I do not agree that the game design is bad though, different maybe, but not bad. It is tight and precise and a little bit challenging (especially if you try for different achievements), but all the challenges is overcoming.
I can see how it might not be everyone's cup of tea though, so yes, try the demo. Another of the gaming worlds Marmite?
