How it feels

A light, arcade-like action game where you extend a blocky sword to strike enemies and dodge their attacks.

What players say

Players praise the art and the mechanic where the sword grows during combat, but almost everyone notes the game is very short at under an hour. Bosses are polarizing: players split between enjoying the challenge and calling the final boss over-tuned. The use of AI music disappoints several reviewers, who ask the developers to remove it.
