How it feels

A challenging 2D platformer with Metroidvania elements, where exploration and upgrading skills feel like navigating a dark fantasy dreamworld.

What players say

Players praise the jazzy music and vintage cartoon art style, but many report game-breaking bugs, glitchy physics, and crashes. The controls are criticized for lacking keyboard remapping and having awkward default bindings. The game is short, around two hours, and the death penalty loses all gems with no save state for checkpoint progress, frustrating some.
