How it feels

A quiet, methodical sci-fi exploration through interconnected rooms, upgrading mechs in a deliberately paced, sometimes punishing puzzle-platformer.

What players say

Players call it a short, minimal metroidvania that takes 2 hours to finish, built around switching between different mechs for abilities. Some find it too linear to qualify as a metroidvania, and the music and feedback are criticized.
