What players say
Players describe it as a minimalist precision platformer where collecting coins increases your speed, making later parts harder. It has 50 levels and a simple story, and the developer has updated old levels, leading to fun replays. Controls work well on controller but not on keyboard, and some players miss a dash ability.
