How it feels

A frantic, satirical capitalism simulator where you zip through destructible levels with a grappling hook and jetpack, chasing profit with absurd, Quake-inspired intensity.

What players say

Players praise the visual style but criticize sluggish horizontal movement and lack of gameplay depth. Reviews are split on the anti-capitalist message, with some calling it propaganda and others appreciating the commentary. The game is very short, around 45 minutes, and has no graphics options, causing performance issues on Steam Deck.
