How it feels

A frantic, arcade-style action platformer where every hit is instantly lethal, demanding split-second reflexes and offering short but punishing survival bursts.

What players say

Players describe a fast and challenging hack-and-slash platformer with a steep difficulty curve after the first level. They say it has no story and one repeating song, but the low price makes it an okay time killer for those who like skill-based action.
