What players say

Players love the adorable squirrel protagonist and the unique wall-climbing movement, but nearly everyone agrees the game is very short, about an hour. Reviews praise the tight controls and retro aesthetic while noting difficulty spikes from enemy spam and sluggish water levels. Many recommend a controller.
