How it feels

A tightly designed 2D world where precise platforming and puzzle-solving interlock with freedom to break sequence and discover hidden paths.

What players say

Players describe a short metroidvania with four hit points throughout and no health upgrades. The controls feel clunky, with no invincibility frames leading to stunlock deaths. The advertised sequence-breaking is considered exaggerated, as the game does not acknowledge it and mostly involves finding invisible walls.
