This entire experience was quite opague. I can't figure out if it's a game or some GUI for basic apps or what.

I lost interest fairly quickly, and half of the components seemed broken.

Yeah, not yet ready for primetime. This hasn't launched yet, and won't for a while. But you can look under the hood:

and check out where we're intending to go:

"I can't figure out if it's a game or some GUI for basic apps or what."

That seems rather disingenuous in light of:

"I lost interest fairly quickly, and half of the components seemed broken."

Seems that you figured out what it was after all, if you knew those were components.

Nothing wrong with negative feedback if it's constructive, but this seems to be a response in the category of "I couldn't be bothered to actually think before I wrote".
