How it feels

A speedy retro action platformer with cute pixel graphics and a nostalgic arcade feel.

What players say

Players call it a short, breezy action platformer that can be finished in an hour or two. The twist is you can only shoot downward, which makes the levels feel inventive. Reviewers compare it to Downwell but say it is much easier, and praise the responsive controls and retro art by a teenage developer.
