How it feels
A tense, precision platformer with a darkly humorous narrative about navigating a hostile world by changing your appearance on the fly.

What players say
Players praise the two-color switching mechanic and sticky-surface platforming as clever and skill-based, with frequent checkpoints keeping frustration low. However, the final boss is widely considered frustrating, the game is short at around 3-5 hours, and some report controller input bugs and graphical glitches.
