How it feels
A nostalgic, exploration-driven platformer that feels like a loving, playable homage to 80s and 90s classics, with a lighthearted tone and a focus on coin collecting and hidden secrets.

What players say
Players say it is a fun Mario-like platformer with floaty controls that take some adjustment. One reviewer compares it unfavorably to a school project, but most find it worth a few dollars.
