How it feels

A deliberate, handcrafted Metroid-like exploration game with a gritty cyborg protagonist and methodical backtracking.

What players say

Players split on this compact Metroidvania. Many praise the NES-era look and hands-off exploration, but frequent complaints point to unavoidable damage, a first boss that kills in one hit, and progress-blocking glitches. The ending is called abrupt.
