How it feels

A retro-styled action-platformer with a lighthearted, determined feel as a humble robot navigates chaotic school life and rises to heroism.

What players say

Players compare it to Mega Man, calling it a fun but janky retro platformer that is short and hard without being frustrating. The controls feel loose, especially when climbing walls, and Missileman can get stuck in geometry, while some note there is no controller support. A few find it generic and boring.
