What players say
Players are split on this free speedrun platformer. Some enjoy the shield-throwing mechanics and short levels, but many say the movement is janky, performance is poor on low-end PCs, and the climb animation breaks often. Most finish it in under 10 minutes, leaving them wanting more content.
