“Its unique movement mechanics set it apart from other games, with just enough challenge to keep you going.”
“The arm-swinging mechanic is unique and adds a great twist (plus, it's a surprisingly good workout).”
“I love the confidence you guys have to make a game about a simple yet fun game mechanic and push it further and further with each level.”
“I gotta say I just played for what felt like a few minutes but was actually 44 minutes and completed 11% of the game. At this rate, I guess the game would average 5 to 10 hours, which isn't bad for 20 bucks. However, I didn’t see anything that would make me want to come back and replay the game for things I missed. I did see I won trophies, but I didn’t notice that in the actual gameplay, and since it wasn’t obvious, I didn’t care much for them.”
“Its zany art style for environments, characters, and enemies is what drew me in, but the actual gameplay along with the humorous tone of this entire world made me play more and more.”
“If you’re into creative gameplay with a lighthearted vibe, this one’s worth checking out!”

“The visuals are great!!”
“I'll recommend your game to others, but I'm curious how such simple graphics can play natively on something like the Oculus Quest 2 or 3. It seems like a marketing limitation on reaching a wider player base, especially since there aren't many good VR games out there.”
