How it feels
A solo-designed action-platformer where you switch elemental powers to explore a hand-drawn dystopian kingdom and overcome enemies and bosses.

What players say
Players praise the hand-drawn art, comic-style cutscenes, and memorable boss fights. The color-switching mechanic is a highlight, though some find the genre identity inconsistent. Opinions are split on controls: reviewers note the lack of remapping as a flaw, but many find gameplay fluid once adapted. The difficulty is challenging, especially in later areas and the train level, but satisfying.
