The gameplay is characterized by engaging mechanics that are simple yet enjoyable, primarily utilizing single and double mouse clicks. While the game offers a fun experience with a manageable playtime of under an hour and a half, players may find the double-click mechanic to be somewhat unreliable, requiring precise timing to execute effectively. Overall, it is recommended as a worthwhile indie title, especially when on sale.
“A short fun flash game with sweet mechanics.”
“Fun little indie game that got me quite a bit of gameplay, even for a single playthrough.”
“Its two core mechanics are mapped to the mouse single-click and double-click, and the double-click is damn finicky, refusing to fire if you're not fully in the air, or so it seems.”
“Recommend to grab when on sale for a stressful, but doable, shot at a 100% under an hour and a half of play time if you get the mechanics down quickly enough.”
