What players say

Players are split on performance: some call it unplayably unoptimized even on good hardware, while others report smooth operation on ultra settings. Those who enjoy a challenge find it a satisfying hardcore platformer with vibrant environments and chill music, ideal for speedrunners, though many note the lack of checkpoints and punishing difficulty.
