  • Gorgeous, painterly art style with lush nature settings and charming animations.
  • Intuitive platforming mechanics aided by in-game cues like yellow flowers and ability progression.
  • Engaging exploratory experience with a mysterious story and interesting lore hinted in the environment.
  • Platforming controls can be floaty and inconsistent, especially issues with the double jump glitching unpredictably.
  • Some collision and movement bugs cause the player to get stuck on walls or cause jumps to fail occasionally.
  • No clear death or boundary conditions in some areas, leading to falling outside playable zones without reset.

  • graphics

    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are praised for their charming and effective art style, featuring lush, painterly visuals and well-integrated visual effects that enhance gameplay. While some criticize the pixel art as lazy or lacking 3D sophistication, others appreciate its simplicity and aesthetic appeal, noting it contributes positively to the game's atmosphere and overall experience.

    • “The artwork is great and has a pleasant art style, the sound effects they chose to use are perfect, the visual effects on the vines are really cool, there are no issues where the floor stops working and it all comes together in a nice little package that could be the blueprint for a much longer game.”
    • “What is easily the greatest draw of this game are the visuals and they are indeed gorgeous with their painterly style and lush nature setting.”
    • “The aesthetic is gorgeous!”
    • “This features really godawful, lazy pixelcrap "art" instead of real graphics.”
    • “It's hard to say if this was because the developer didn't have the skill to do the job of creating 3D visuals, or couldn't afford to hire someone who does, but it also doesn't matter.”
    • “Games like Terraria and Stardew Valley succeeded despite the bad graphics, not because of them.”

  • gameplay

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is solid but has some issues, notably confusion around the double jump mechanic, which is not functioning as an intended feature. Overall, it’s a decent platformer, though the gameplay may feel overshadowed by its standout art.

    • “In terms of gameplay, the inconsistent double jump that people are bothered by is not actually the intended double jump!”
    • “A fine little platformer with art that rises above the clouds of its gameplay.”
    • “In terms of gameplay, first up, the inconsistent double jump that people are bothered by is not intentional as the actual double jump!”

  • music

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users feel the background music is too quiet and suggest increasing its overall volume to enhance the experience.

  • story

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is minimal and mostly implicit, with the world and its history primarily conveyed through environmental details like the crumbling ruins rather than direct narrative.

  • stability

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users report stability issues related to a buggy double jump mechanic, indicating occasional glitches that affect gameplay consistency.
