How it feels

A short, story-driven metroidvania with precise platforming and gradual power progression, set in a linear pixel-art world.

What players say

Players say it is a very short precision platformer, not a true metroidvania, with a lot of instant death and trial-and-error level design. The final boss was patched and dialogue can now be skipped, but save points are far apart and the English translation is broken. Some find it fun for the price, others say it is frustrating and unfinished.
