I tried it out myself and there's a huge amount of charm to it. The style is nice and the voice acting is surprisingly good too! The puzzles were quite interesting too, took me a while to actually figure them out. You can find the demo on itch.io if it sounds like your idea of a fun time.
It's a Unity game and I did notice some graphical issues though with my NVIDIA GPU. To get around them until they upgrade their Unity version (now the issue in the game engine is fixed), you can use this command to launch it with:
AuroraTLMDemo.x86 -force-glcore42 -force-clamped
As for the full release, the developer told me that they're aiming to be available on Steam, GOG and Humble Store "this summer".
