How it feels
A relentlessly challenging platformer where every jump rotates the world, demanding quick reflexes and punishing mistakes with instant permadeath.

What players say
Players say the core twist is rotating the entire level instead of jumping, which makes for a deceptively hard platformer where rhythm and timing matter more than speed. Reviews split on whether progression feels fair: some find it rewarding, others say it is painfully difficult from the start.
