How it feels

a demanding retro action platformer where precise jumps and sword strikes are tested across tight pixel-art levels and generous checkpoints.

What players say

Players praise the controls and pixel art but say the level design, enemy variety, and sound are repetitive. Several report a game-breaking bug on level 26 that freezes the character, which has not been fixed.
