Maybe I'm just blind, but has nobody mentioned AutoHotPie yet? https://github.com/dumbeau/AutoHotPie

Casual-friendly, kill half an hour quickly and leave satisfied. Not deep, but not boring either.

What MDMaster said is technically true, but undersells how well crafted said experience is. Encourage giving this a try to see whether it's your thing.

Very tight controls, mysterious setting. Optional collectibles strewn across the maps that are difficult to get or even find, some require mastery of movement options. No hand-holding apart from cryptic words floating in the beginning hinting at mechanics. Satisfying.

Game picks up speed after getting one of the first upgrades, which lets you dash. Incredible environments and the game nails the dark atmosphere part.

Amazing artwork, but the controls are rough. Not satisfying to play.
