How it feels

A demanding test of reflexes that feels like a frantic, simultaneous balancing act of two minimalist balls through punishing obstacle courses.

What players say

Players control two characters simultaneously, a gimmick they say works well early but leads to frustration later due to floaty jumps, bad hitboxes, and trial-and-error level design. Opinion splits: some call it a fair challenge, others find it impossibly annoying.
