How it feels

A tense, atmospheric side-scrolling strategy game where you carefully manage resources and time during the day to survive increasingly hostile nights.

What players say

Players praise the hand-drawn art, atmospheric music, and say the game is much longer than the initial impression suggests, around 10 hours. It plays like a mix of tower defense and exploration similar to Kingdom, but with its own mechanics. Some find the controls a bit slow and the tutorial information-dense, and note that a corrupter spawning late in a level can wipe out progress.
