How it feels

A tense, precision-driven 2D platformer with a dark, surreal atmosphere and Lovecraftian horror elements.

What players say

Players are drawn to the distinctive Giger-like black-and-white art, but many find the gameplay rough, with stiff controls, unfair enemy damage, and trial-and-error sections. The game is very short, around one to two hours, and opinions split on whether the atmosphere makes up for the janky combat and weak platforming.
