EP: Research - Magrunner

I thought The Talos Principle was the closest thing in terms of game mechanics to what I anted from my game level. I also thought Dark Souls was the closest thing I wanted to the aesthetic and tone I wanted. However, I've found a game that has a nice mixture of the two; Magrunner. Magrunner seems to be a first-person puzzle cthulhu-lore inspired game.

I love the mixture of dark, Lovecraftian story mixed with a blend of The Talos Principle, Portal & Half-Life 2 gameplay. However, I do think the colour palettes and lighting is a little to varied and saturated within Magrunner. I don't think I will go quite so vibrant and eclectic with the lighting, however I do like the otherworldly mix of colours, light and architecture.
