How it feels

A dreamlike 3D metroidvania where you fluidly parkour through a surreal, decaying castle, balancing melancholic exploration with tight, punishing platforming.

What players say

Players praise the fluid movement and parkour as the game's highlight, but find the wallkick mechanic frustrating and unreliable. The metroidvania exploration is rewarding yet confusing, often leaving players unsure if a path is blocked by skill or a missing upgrade. Most finish in 5 to 7 hours, and many wish it were longer.
