How it feels

A fast-paced squirrel adventure through a hand-painted pixel forest, blending run-and-gun action with light exploration and cosmetic rewards.

What players say

Players describe a challenging janky run and gun with a silly story and mildly psychedelic vibe. A rocket launcher upgrade eases the difficulty, but the platforming and enemy layouts still punish, and some players find it frustrating.
