How it feels

a tense, unforgiving platformer where precise jumps on slick surfaces create constant dread and frustration.

What players say

Players compare it to Getting Over It and Only Up, controlling a sausage by aiming with the mouse and clicking for launch power. The game is difficult and frustrating but rewarding, with a narrator who adds humor. Some players note a few punishing falls that are easy to miss. The developer is responsive to bug reports. A speedrun mode is also mentioned.
