How it feels

A clever, brain-teasing platformer that feels like a chaotic puzzle box where the world spins and swaps under your feet, with a lighthearted comedic tone.

What players say

Players praise the unique screen-swapping mechanic that twists the platforming, calling it a fair but tough challenge that gets harder each level. The short levels avoid frustration, and many compare it favorably to Super Meat Boy. Some note the Turkish voice acting and the appeal of chasing par times.
