How it feels

A quick, stealthy puzzle game where you race the clock through pixel art levels, with each mistake forcing an immediate restart.

What players say

Players praise this free puzzle teaser as short but replayable, with many returning to improve their speedrun times. The line of sight on enemies feels strange to some, and a few wish for WASD controls, but the atmosphere and polish win over most. It serves as a prelude to Lightway Lines.
