How it feels

You struggle upward using intentionally clumsy poop-flinging mechanics while a narrator dryly comments on your failures and a bittersweet story about a boy retrieving his dead cat from heaven unfolds.

What players say

Players call it a frustrating but addictive precision platformer with toilet humor. Most compare it to Getting Over It, though some say it lacks that game's safety net and feels more unfair. The chain made of poop can be used for swinging, adding a subtle mechanic. Bugs persist: a cutscene glitch can freeze your character, and on some platforms the poop animation plays without moving.
