How it feels

A chaotic, bouncy retro platformer that feels like playing a forgotten NES game from the 80s, full of goofy gross-out humor and simple arcade action.

What players say

Players praise it as a loving tribute to NES-era platformers that captures the gross humor of Garbage Pail Kids, with a trading card mechanic and a short 3-to-4 hour campaign. Some report a black screen at launch unless Steam Input and overlay are disabled, and a few find the controls and camera frustrating.
