How it feels

A lighthearted hybrid of exploration and brawling, where you rescue clones in a colorful facility.

What players say

Players describe it as a smash bros-style metroidvania with a simple moveset that grows as you unlock boss powers. Platforming is floaty and precision can frustrate, especially in later levels. Reviews are split on difficulty: some find it fun and fair, others say hit stun and juggling make common fights feel bad.
