How it feels

A grimly humorous and frustrating puzzle-platformer where you navigate a pig's suicidal quest through gory and psychologically twisted levels.

What players say

Players compare it to the Karoshi Suicide Salary Man games but say it's worse, with unresponsive controls and tedious puzzles that force slow block pushing. The game is weighed down by janky physics, RNG-based bosses, and a feeling of being released unfinished, though a few enjoy the humor and premise.
