How it feels

A nostalgic precision platformer with a lighthearted, retro feel and simple pixel visuals.

What players say

Players describe a hardcore platformer full of troll traps and sudden spikes, similar to Syobon Action or I wanna be the guy. The game is short for now but developers are adding more levels, and bugs show up as often as deaths.
