How it feels
A challenging retro-style platformer with classic pixel art and precise, skill-based movement through 8-bit worlds.

What players say
Players are divided on this NES-style platformer from a Russian YouTuber. Some call it a fun, quick fan service title with decent graphics and boss fights, while many others hate the unresponsive controls, grating music, uninspired level design and lazy pixel art. The five levels are short, and the game feels either like a cheap cash grab or a fair indie project depending on who you ask.
