How it feels

You chain together a blur of wall jumps, grapples, and teleports in a vibrant, chaotic race against time, each run a frantic flow state of speed and destruction.

What players say

Players love the blistering speed and movement, comparing it to Dead Cells and Sonic, with a unique emberdrift slide that takes practice but rewards flow. Runs feel less random than typical roguelikes, though builds can snowball too quickly and controller aiming frustrates some.
