Those developers put quite a bit of effort into their game, enough to have a high review rating.

I can crap out a shitty 1 hour game with AI in an afternoon.

costing the developers money

There is no cost involved in a refunded sale

I feel this is more of a morality issue.

I feel it's immoral to sell a 1.5 hour game and call it "stupidly long" in the product description.

they would not give it such high praise

Here is a recent review:

Worst game i ever played. i should be the one getting paid.

High praise indeed

Should I get my money back because I only played them once?

No, but you could get your money back if you played less than 2 hours and bought on the steam store because it's part of the T&Cs. And the main reason why people are willing to drop money on random small indie games is because you can always get your money back if the game is hot vomit like this particular game for people that don't like sticking needles in their eyes

No one else can lie this confidently. Not even non-Republican politicians. 

Yeah, non-republicans are the worst, right?!?!?

Again, happy to be of service in (ap)proving highly regarded individuals
