How it feels

A difficult 2D platformer where a melon climbs a mountain through precise jumping and rotation physics.

What players say

Players praise the unique melon-opening mechanic and physical movement, but the game is plagued by unclear object hitboxes, an RNG-heavy ice section, and progress-blocking bugs. The biggest frustration is a deliberately obscure ending that requires a glitch-like jump to reach, leaving even motivated players to rely on unintentional behavior to finish.
