How it feels

A brisk, one-button arcade challenge where each mistimed jump punishes you with a restart, demanding stubborn persistence over skill.

What players say

Players are split: some dismiss it as a broken platformer with terrible hitboxes and no saving, while others enjoy it as a quirky achievement game, noting a hidden Konami code that unlocks all achievements. The only way to finish the 20 levels is in one sitting, and the constant ambulance sound on death grates on nerves.
