What players say

A short, cute-looking 2D platformer that starts easy and gets tough. The jump height is fixed, enemies cannot be stomped, and each level must be restarted upon death. Players are split on how fair the difficulty feels, some find the hidden collectibles and secret ending overly obscure, while others enjoy the challenge.
