What players say

Players describe this as an extremely difficult precision climbing game in the tradition of Only Up, where success requires pixel-perfect landings and careful use of a run-charge jump. The controls feel slippery and the collision detection is strict, leading to frequent falls and frustration. Custom VRM model import works well and makes it a popular choice for streamers doing endurance runs.
