How it feels
A tense, high-stakes platformer where you push through relentless enemy waves, scavenge items, and try to survive one more run before perma-death resets everything.

What players say
Players say it is a classic roguelite with an addictive loop and an excellent soundtrack, but many warn about frequent crashes and recommend the remaster instead. Difficulty is high and bosses are punishing, while co-op is hard to set up.
