How it feels

The game feels like a hyper-fast, retro-styled platformer where you teleport through enemies and blow up everything in sight to clear a path forward.

What players say

Players are split on this precision platformer. Some find it addictive and fresh, comparing it to Super Meat Boy and Crash Bandicoot, while others say it is overpriced and not fun, with repetitive music and a speedrun focus that prevents enjoyment of the scenery. Keyboard controls are widely considered unusable.
