How it feels

An 8-bit run-and-gun platformer that feels like a fast-paced, synthwave-scored vigilante arcade game from the 1980s.

What players say

Players praise the authentic NES-era feel, especially the chiptune soundtrack and pixel art. Some note that the movement has noticeable drift or inertia that adds to the challenge. It is short, rewarding repeat plays, with enemies and patterns that feel fair once learned.
