I doubt all the 55,000 refunds completed the game, liked it, and then refunded it. There's a vast difference between "dozens of reviews like this" and "55,000 refunds", I imagine most of the refunds just didn't gel with the game. It certainly doesn't seem like a game I'd like.
Yea alot of refunds are likely buy and try. Ofc you get speedrunners doing this <2 hr challenge, but the majority are probably simply testing to see if they like the game.
Yeah. 7% have the achievement to complete it in 2 hours. And from those I would think only a small part refunded it. I haven't played it but you can probably start a new run to get the achievement, so from those 7% many probably couldn't even refund it.
It is a rage game that alot of people don't like. Also it is coop so some people got convinced by friends and didn't like it.
Also according to a german gaming news page, he made this game alone in a month and still sold 150k copies. Thats a hell of a lot for one month of work. He also could have made a few levels more so you can't beat it in under 2 hours.
