How it feels

A frantic pixel-art platformer where you race home under a meteor shower, managing limited lives while the cute visuals belie the pressure.

What players say

Players call it a charming but punishing platformer where randomly falling meteors can ruin runs. The nine-life system forces restarts from the very start, creating frustration alongside the cute pixel art. Fans of rage games and speedrunning enjoy the variety, while others find the unpredictability unfair.
