How it feels

A short, retro-style run-and-gun platformer focused on exploring small planets and shooting enemies for upgrades.

What players say

Players call this a very short, bite-sized metroidvania they can finish in one sitting, with nice pixel art and music. Many report it is broken on modern systems: crashes, flashing, or running too fast depending on screen refresh rate, and some call the controls imprecise and the boss spongey.
