How it feels

A narrative-driven hand-drawn platformer with a dark fantasy atmosphere and surreal, stylized visuals.

What players say

Players praise the art and animation, especially the monster designs and how the game blends fairy-tale and Catholic imagery. The story is widely considered vague and confusing, requiring background knowledge some players lack. Gameplay is a short puzzle-platformer with one-hit death and no backtracking for missed collectibles, which frustrates completionists.
