How it feels
A tough, retro-styled precision platformer where collecting hidden music notes rewards you with a real band's single, designed for players who crave a challenge and speedrunning.

What players say
Players praise the tight controls and catchy music, though some note minor UI hiccups. The platforming gets tough later, but the controls are reliable enough that failure feels like level design, not jank.
