How it feels

A fast and punishing descent through randomly generated guts, with tight controls and a dark, pixelated atmosphere.

What players say

Players love the tight controls and grotesque style, but almost everyone agrees the game is under an hour long. It is more of a score attack arcade game than a roguelite, drawing comparisons to Downwell. There is a true ending after the first clear.
