How it feels

DYE feels like a demanding test of reflexes and patience, with tight precision jumps and a bright, pixel-art world that contrasts with its punishing difficulty.

What players say

Players say DYE is a brutally hard precision platformer that ramps up difficulty fast, with a punishing start and unforgiving hitboxes. Some find the character physics awful, while others praise the controls and music, noting slow boss fights and a poor difficulty curve.
