What players say

Players are split. Many call it a charming, colorful throwback to 90s platformers like Crash Bandicoot and Jak and Daxter, while others say it is too short and unfinished for a full release, and should be Early Access. Complaints focus on floaty controls, clunky combat, and a lack of visible split-screen options.
