This game takes me back to the days where I would play the worlds hardest game back in the computer lab in elementary school. The game is very challenging and patience is definately required. If you are into games that require a lot of skill and patience then im sure this game would be good for you. As a fan of rage games/ skill games such as geometry dash and sounddodger+ I really enjoyed the skill required to beat some of these levels. I have currently beaten the first world and got to level 7 of the second world before taking a break. Unfortunately I learned the hard way that when you leave a world you have to restart from the first level once you load it back up. So be cautious. For 6 dollars the price seems kind of iffy but i'm glad I gave the game a try.

Suprisingly well made game. I love the gameplay, and the developer seems to be active and wants to fix problems... What is there not to like? The game is pure fun, and even more so if you like challenge. The game is literally a puzzle game. (Developer reply basically spoilers one of the puzzles I had a problem solving) But solving it is not enough: You also have to execute that solved puzzle with tight, responsive controls. 10/10. Only con I can think of is the sound, as you cannot turn sound off in-game as the menu option seems bugged. Music can be turned down but it just fades into some ambient sounds. Actually didn't recommend this first but the developer fixed awful problem with a certain level so I changed my review.

A silky smooth "bullet-hell"-esque arcade game. The control setup is arrow-key/WASD based and feels very responsive. The game is fun with a good amount of difficulty for those who are willing to step up to the challenge. The music is clean and well-fitting. The graphic style is simplistic but works well with this style of game. Would recommend to anyone looking for a fun game that you can plug and play right away.

Great obstacle course game, chill music, good smooth controls. Made me feel completely uncoordinated and shout at my monitor. Took me 30 minutes just to beat the first 10 levels. 50 to go! https://youtu.be/I32GTFG1mCE

I just want to start off and say that the game itself is fun and challenging. Every level feels very satisfying to clear, and the combination of a puzzle/bullet hell game makes it very skill intensive. The music is also very good, the songs are really catchy, and you won't mind having it play for a couple hours. In terms of visuals, its simple and clean. The only problem I have with it is that every world has the exact same theme, which isn't that big of a deal, but I think changing up the colours or something in each world could make the player a little more excited whenever they enter a new world, and it would help keep the game fresh. Now there is one big issue I have and that's the lag. When I first started playing the game it ran fine, but as time went on the game just kept running slower and slower. Now, every time I open the game and start a level, it feels like its running at 10fps (exaggerated but you get the idea). I don't have the greatest laptop but I can run much heavier games without any issues, so I feel like the game could be optimised better. I'm not sure of the exact cause of this, but I feel like dying a lot can cause the game to slow down a ton, or it could b…

wonderfull game, got full clear with about 1000 deaths on stage 6.. here is a very important thing though that you need to fix in your next game.. the hit box! the need box needs a very clear and precise graphic, some bullet hell games make a red dot or white light at the core so we know precisely where the hit box is.. if you want you can make it a toggleable option, but we need the hit box indicator! please! I would def buy a game like this though again, money well spent for 6$
