How it feels

A frantic, retro-flavored precision platformer where you leap and slingshot through chunky pixel worlds with goofy revenge energy and a pacifist twist.

What players say

Players call it a solid retro platformer with pixel art and hidden rooms, though some find secret walls frustrating because they give no visual hint. The music is liked but a few reviewers say the sound effects are too sharp and loud.
