A precise and challenging climb through handcrafted pixel levels, blending emotional storytelling with tight platforming that feels rewarding yet punishing.

What players say
Players praise the tight, responsive movement and say deaths feel fair. Many adore the soundtrack and the way assist mode doesn't disable achievements. A sizable minority are upset that the protagonist is revealed as transgender late in the story, calling it a reworked addition they wish was disclosed upfront.
