How it feels

A quick, precise test of reflexes with a cheerful retro aesthetic and a feel-good soundtrack.

What players say

Players praise the tight controls and 68 levels, noting the dash feels useless and normal mode's checkpoints make it forgiving while a pro mode removes them. Later levels introduce random obstacles and enemies, and the final level is described as brutally hard. The retro pixel art and soundtrack evoke classic platformers.
