  • Unique metroidvania gameplay with a circular wrap-around map offers a fresh and challenging experience.
  • The game has a rewarding difficulty curve that provides a sense of accomplishment, especially for hardcore players.
  • Free-to-play with customizable controls, decent music, and solid performance even on older hardware.
  • The English translation is machine-generated and often confusing, making story and instructions hard to follow.
  • Motion sickness can occur due to the rotating circular perspective, and some players found it disorienting.
  • High difficulty includes frustrating design choices such as leap of faith jumps, small hitboxes, and some unfair boss mechanics that rely heavily on trial, error, or RNG.

    The gameplay is fast-paced and challenging, catering primarily to hardcore players who enjoy intense action, but it can feel overwhelming and unforgiving for newcomers. While the manual provides helpful explanations for game mechanics, some boss fights may feel poorly designed and overly reliant on luck rather than skill or strategy.

    • “While the in-game descriptions can be a bit cryptic, I found that the manual explained important game mechanics well, and I'd strongly recommend taking a look at the manual before you start or when you get stuck.”
    • “This game is only for the hardcore; the boss fights are very challenging, providing a tough but rewarding gameplay experience.”
    • “When you play the game without being accustomed to fast-paced action gameplay, it will engulf you and spit out the bones.”
    • “This game is only for the hardcore. The boss fights kicked my butt so hard. I honestly think the second boss fight was poorly made, which is why I wouldn't recommend the game. It wasn't enjoyable; it felt like a YOLO base race. The boss fight didn’t feel like I could learn how to dodge the mechanics or play around them. I don't mind a challenge, but I do mind a challenge that seems to be overcome only with RNG.”

    The graphics receive mixed feedback, with some criticizing the use of outdated retro pixel art instead of modern PC visuals, while others appreciate the overall visuals, especially noting the quality of the menu background animation.

    • “I like the visuals overall, and particularly the menu background animation looks pretty good.”
    • “They chose to use obsolete retro pixel art as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics.”
  • music

    The music in the game is generally considered satisfactory, with users noting the presence of volume settings for both music and sound effects. However, it doesn't particularly stand out or impress.

    • “Overall, I found the music in this game alright.”
    • “Music and SFX volume settings need improvement.”

    The story is difficult to follow due to a lack of proper English translation, making it hard for players to understand the plot.
