How it feels

A quick, room-by-room action platformer where you fight through dungeon levels in short runs, unlocking permanent upgrades between attempts.

What players say

Players praise the light management mechanic that makes visibility a real concern, and the co-op is a highlight with frantic shared runs. However, some say that after about 4 to 5 hours the roguelite becomes repetitive, and controller users report a frustrating bug where the game randomly switches to mouse input.
