How it feels
A challenging, colorful sci-fi side-scroller where you explore space with a sarcastic AI, balancing tricky platforming and beat-em-up combat against a backdrop of cosmic mystery.

What players say
Players are sharply divided. Some find a rewarding if demanding precision platformer, but many more complain about clunky controls, especially a charge-and-hold jump that feels unresponsive, poor optimization, and a jarring switch between 3D hub areas and 2D levels. Movement speed in maze sections is also widely criticized.
