How it feels

A ruthless 2D platformer with quick combat, perma-death, and procedurally generated rooms that get progressively harder.

What players say

Players praise the simple, chaotic fun and addictive loop of this procedurally generated roguelike, but many note the auto-aim and backflip mechanic can cause frustrating misfires. The difficulty is high and the game feels janky, though some find the challenge rewarding.
