How it feels

A quick, energetic retro action game with cute pixel art and a simple stick-and-stone combat loop.

What players say

Players report a short, 30–50 minute 2D Zelda-like where movement speed and attack controls frustrate, while the stone weapon makes the easy game even easier. There is a split on difficulty: some find it easy, others cite the clumsy controls as the real challenge.
