How it feels

A disorienting and punishing 3D puzzle-platformer where you guide a customizable character with mouse movements, testing your patience and tolerance for failure.

What players say

Players compare the mouse-pointer controls to Monkey Ball and Getting Over It. They praise the creative level design while warning that progress loss is common and the difficulty is punishing. Some note the developer abandoned the game years ago with no updates.
