How it feels

A frantic, precision-based platformer where you climb fast and fall faster, with a silly, cartoonish tone and a stressful sense of urgency.

What players say

Players describe it as a foddian precision platformer with a unique smack mechanic for wall jumps and no air control. The game is short, around 20 minutes for a flawless run, but players fall constantly. They praise the crisp animations, chiptune soundtrack, and lighthearted tone that keeps frustration funny.
