How it feels

A frantic dash up a chaotic tower of scrap and ships, blending speed-run platforming with precise sword combat against waves of robotic foes.

What players say

Players consistently praise the music but split on the controls, calling the robot floaty and the platforming awkward. The game is short and cheap, but the final boss is a sudden difficulty spike with a badly timed tutorial. Some recommend it for a chill speedrun-like experience.
