“This game is great! I love the difference in characters and abilities and there is a lot to do! My only complaint is that it is a little short and the first threat level play through can be a little easy. Working my way…”
“An absolutely excellent title that belongs in the library of every fan of action games. Everything from the smooth wall running and omnidirectional dashing to the chunky power hits and swift jabs feels great to play.…”

“action roguelite + side scroller , got a decent amount of content + various character classes + weapons. Could have been better if there are more maps/biomes + online co-op. Solid game for such a small storage size (3GB)”

“Liked the art style, liked the option of switching characters in the way they presented it here and the game seems to play well. I absolutely can not stand random weapon selection in games for any reason whatsoever.…”

“This game is amazing, tho some achievements are tricky af. Evolved boss fights and flawless secret boss fights really suck the hp and scrypts outta u ;) Highly recommended”
— a player, Steam review · 36 hrs played“One of the best 2D roguelike games out there. It's on a par with Dead Cells in my eyes. I saw someone below saying the controls are clunky and it's unoriginal, both of which are completely untrue. It plays beautifully and whilst it clearly mirrors other classics of the genre it…”
— a player, Steam review · 50 hrs played“This game was a part of Humble's Mecha Bundle April 2026 This is a great game. Within 2 days I've amassed over 10 hour in the game. It's been a while since I've found a roguelite in a 2D platformer format that had me in such a chokehold. Last time was Dead Cells and BlazBlue…”
