How it feels

a frantic, old-school arcade run where you replay short levels to beat your own score, balancing speed against tricky jumps and lurking traps.

What players say

Players are split on this retro platformer: some find it a decent quick-play experience from a solo dev, but most criticize the floaty controls, primitive level design, and awful sound.
