How it feels

A relentless, grim trek through a distorted nightmare where every step is a fight for survival against deadly threats and shifting landscapes.

What players say

Players describe a surreal pixel-art adventure controlled entirely by mouse, but the lack of any menu, exit button, or explanation leaves many frustrated. The game is split between those charmed by its music and trippy visuals and those who find the invisible walls, spike hitboxes, and inconsistent save points broken.
