How it feels
A precise and challenging precision platformer with a retro sci-fi feel, offering forgiving checkpoints on normal difficulty and a punishing hardcore mode.

What players say
Players appreciate the handcrafted levels and minimal presentation, but the controls draw strong criticism. The movement has a noticeable input delay and the wall jump feels unreliable, which turns precision platforming into a frustration. The game is long and challenging, though less punishing than I Wanna be the Guy.
