How it feels

A tense, action-packed roguelite platformer where you fight through a dark manor using light and gadgets against swarms of creatures.

What players say

Players praise the flashlight mechanic that reveals levels and damages enemies, calling the art and music lovely. But many find the controls stiff, the dodge dash unresponsive, and the roguelite progression samey. A few report game-breaking bugs that wipe progress, and several note the lack of mid-run saving makes long runs frustrating.
