Refunct

this game is short, oh so short but it feels like a friend. The names of the achievements got me thinking sentimentally as I was playing, and when the sub-4 minute achievement said "Is this goodbye?" it tugs on your feelings a bit. least it did for me, so I kept going till I got sub 3:20 and what was important is I grew familiar with the game, it felt like getting to know a friend with their little intricacies as you play alongside them.

What this game may mean to you is up to your own view and experience. but it made me happy and appreciative of a very good friend.

Neat game

sublime

This game is neat

too short for the money

Actual banger.

Sweet little game, good for an hour. Peaceful platforming and a great soundtrack.

good game. very peaceful and has a few fun achievements.

Really nice game. Relaxing, fun, and sweet. Definitely recommend it as a short, simple, satisfying experience.

Nice relaxing game with cool aesthetics, only thing is it lasts under an hour,
could have more levels maybe but at this price i cant complain!

Great fun!

Refunct is a short but incredibly engaging platformer that invites players into a calming, minimalist world. From the very first moment, the game captivates with its peaceful atmosphere, accompanied by a soothing, ambient soundtrack that enhances the sense of serenity. The visuals are refreshingly simple, with bright, vibrant colors that make the environment feel alive and inviting. Each level is composed of clean, geometric shapes, with the world gradually coming to life as you jump, run, and climb across platforms.

The gameplay is where Refunct truly shines. It's easy to pick up, with smooth, intuitive controls that make navigating the world a joy. The platforming itself isn’t overly challenging, but the level design is clever enough to keep you engaged, with just the right amount of challenge to encourage exploration without overwhelming you. The real brilliance lies in how the environment evolves as you progress — the more you interact with the world, the more it fills with color and life, giving you a rewarding sense of impact.

Narratively, Refunct doesn’t overload you with dialogue or complex plots. Instead, it conveys its story through the very act of gameplay. It’s about growth, connection, and renewal. The journey is personal, offering a meditative experience where each jump feels like a step toward restoring something lost.

The sense of progression is extremely satisfying, especially since the game encourages exploration and rewards you for finding hidden areas. There’s an undeniable charm in watching the world gradually come to life as you engage with it.

For those who enjoy tranquil, introspective gaming experiences, Refunct is a gem. It’s a perfect way to unwind and experience a world that’s simple yet deeply fulfilling. The game strikes a perfect balance between exploration and relaxation, leaving you with a feeling of contentment after every play session.

Refunct isn’t just a game; it’s an experience — one that’s sure to stay with you long after you’ve finished. If you’re looking for a short but meaningful adventure that will leave you with a smile, Refunct is an absolute must-play.

jump

something very calming about this simple experience of restoring the world, aided a lot by the lovely OST, this is really nice!

Fun little first-person platformer with very simple mechanics (you can jump, do walljumps and slide, plus there are some environmental objects, that can help move you in different ways). There's no story, no NPCs, just pure gameplay.
The game is completable in 15-20 minutes, if you don't know your way around. Can do it quicker, naturally.
The controls are pretty smooth, the visuals are simple, but pleasing to the eye, and the background music is pretty tranquil.

For this price I consider this game to be a great way to spend a little time for some gaming fun. And thanks to the length and how the controls are so simple to handle, you can always return to it after some time passes.

It's a pretty good game. The last speedrun achievement was a little disappointing though

Cool little first person platformer and nothing more but that's all it needs to be, i'd recommend waiting for the game to go on sale though cause even for 3 dollars it's a bit short

so gud

good ass game

Great game for a single gaming session. Good graphics and satisfying game play mechanics

Nice and quick parkour game with some challenging achievements

I saw a really nice review that inspired me to buy this game. It is relaxing, an unlike the other reviewer, I couldn;t find it's appeal. However, i liked it.

Nice

Refunct is a very short first person platformer that's more audio-visual vibes than anything else. While I might recommend grabbing this on sale as you will likely finish it in under 15 minutes, I would unquestionably recommend it. The vibes are good and the movement feels good and I'll undoubtedly pop back to run through it a few more times in the future.

Short first person parkour game with lots of replayability. Very fun going for the achievements.

The perfect palate cleanser to improve your day.

it's alright

No no no no, you don't understand you have to spend hours and hours listening to the soundtrack until you get underwater (inside the game) and then you feel the music resonating so deep inside you that the ONLY thing you have left to do is go into the Steam forums of this game and ask for the soundtrack so you can go into Bandcamp and purchase all of this guy music!!!!

Now get inside the game get underwater and just let the time pass and listen to it for hours.

Game is a relaxing puzzle / parkour mix with both of them not being too hard but the mix of moving around + listening to the chill dope music is something else.
+ Game is pretty easy to 100% all achievements.

Play this.

great fun relaxing game

it's fine, worth to finish, won't take much time but nice experience

Refunt is a Short and Sweet 3D Platformer. The game includes a pretty nice ost (I recommend searching for the artist if you enjoy it) and some fun and challenging achievements.

"What makes you, you?"

A short yet healing game that greets you warmly and brings a smile to your face.
"Hello?"

🤸🏢🏃

Refunct, wow, didn’t know this masterpiece even existed.

The game is super simple, you jump, wall jump, slide, climb, and hit those red buttons. That’s it. But it’s simple, relaxing, artistic, and honestly, a masterpiece.

Finished it in just 7 minutes, but wow, it really hit me. The vibe, the achievements, and especially the way the game shows you the land you’ve already stepped on after hitting the final button.. it’s a heart-shaped land! 🫶

Hey dev, I know you haven’t made anything like this in forever, but please make another one.

Overall: 10/10. A short, beautiful experience that sticks with you.

Its a nice and short little 3D Platformer.

this game may be short but imo its worth the time

Refunct is a break from all of the noise, great flow state game and very visually interesting.

Nice graphics

<3

It's okay, a short platformer that could be of interest to speedrunners and TASers. Takes at most about half an hour to finish, you can then try to 100% the achievements by going fast or sparingly using the platforms. Quite captivating.

If you're playing on Linux/Deck, you might want to force Proton off (choose Steam Runtime in compatibility tab) if your game misbehaves. For some reason Proton is on by default and for me it made the game stuck in low res and half the options in menu were inaccessible. Native build works perfectly.

You'll struggle with this game, but it'll be worth it to get all achievements.

There is really nothing to this game.... It is only 30 minutes and has basically zero depth. I thought I had just finished the first level, but apparently that was the whole game. Would not recommend, even if it would be free it feels like a waste of time.

Cute little platformer, lasts about 30 minutes, satisfying physics. I got it for under a dollar and quite enjoyed the serene experience for that money.

Short but sweet, amazing game feel. Very chill and relaxing little experience.

Acceptable parkour game about making big cubes change color. 5.5/10

A short little game, but probably the best first-person platforming I've seen since Mirror's Edge. You're basically trying to jump on top of all the blocks in the world and collect some items and new formations and platforms appear as you clear things out. The focus on flipping the color of cubes kind of feels like a 3D version of Q*Bert but without enemies, or, and this is a super obscure reference, if the gameplay mechanics of American McGee's Grimm had more of an actual point. Vaulting just over the edge of a block is incredibly satisfying. The game does a great job teaching you the mechanics naturally without resorting to tutorials or slowing the pacing though I do wish there was a little more instruction to what the controls actually are. The only thing I'd really say threw me off just a little bit is that the default mouse sensitivity is a bit low and the default sensitivity setting is called "100%" which confused me before I realized the sensitivity can be set to above 100%. Really thoguh it was fantastic and I'd love to see this concept expanded out with more levels and environments. I imagine speedrunners will enjoy it too.

Be aware that my playtime is representative of a single 100% playthrough. This is not a long game. Don't buy it and complain it's too short.

Refunct does incredibly well at making platforming feel good. It is not at all a difficult game - I think I failed a jump about twice - but it contrasts from a lot of platformers in that its 'climb' mechanic turns near-misses on platforms into successes, and that honestly feels great. Scratches dopamine receptors in the right way (though, for what it's worth, I'm pretty sure the platforming is designed around this mechanic and not possible in places without it). It also scratches really well when it comes to completionism. Every new platform goes green and you get a little hit of that 'tick on my to-do list' feelgood.

I'd like a couple of hours of it I think. More than that, I'd be disappointed by the absence of any challenge, but I had a lot of fun playing through as-is.
