How it feels
You play as a hydra launching its own heads at knights, with the heads doubling as health, creating a frantic and strategic combat flow.

What players say
Players love this short, forgiving platformer that wears its Yoshi's Island inspiration on its sleeve. Its standout twist: the hydra throws its own heads as attacks. The art is entirely hand-drawn, levels introduce new ideas constantly, and there is no filler.
