How it feels
A dark 2D side-scrolling souls-like with simplified controls where you only need to attack and roll, creating a more accessible but still tense feel.

What players say
Players praise the bold design of removing player movement entirely, leaving only attack and dodge, which makes combat feel like a rhythm game. Reviewers split on the difficulty: some find the curve punishing, especially with ranged enemies, while others enjoy the challenge. Several note that development seems abandoned, with the last update in 2023 and negligible English translation.
