How it feels

A simple but punishing platformer where you dodge spikes and traps to reach the boss, with a casual feel but sharp difficulty.

What players say

Players say this is a brutally hard platformer that combines random traps with precise wall-jumping and invincible dashing. Sentiment is split on whether the randomness feels unfair or adds welcome variety, but most agree the difficulty is extreme and the cute pixel art contrasts sharply with the punishing gameplay.
