Unexpectedly polished little gem. Cute graphics, pleasant music, satisfying controls. My only complaint is that the difficulty curve felt a bit weird – in every single one of the 5 worlds, the last level was significantly harder than the rest of them. Other than that I can wholeheartedly recommend this game. Consider getting it on sale though, as $10 seems a bit high given that a clear usually takes between 2 and 5 hours.

Amazing game! A friend and I raced this game blind and it was very fun! Very similar to the game Super Meat Boy (fast falling, fast platforming, quick respawning, etc.) but with its own gimmicks. I found that the worlds followed a good difficulty curve. I went from Forest/Jungle to Desert, Ice, Gear and then finally Fire. Jungle felt the second hardest, but mainly because of my slower reaction time. Every world had its own gimmicks and usually multiple of them. Each world had ten levels with the final being the toughest. I didn't encounter any bugs, and the soundtrack was pretty awesome albeit short. Very fun game, would greatly recommend to people who enjoy these tough platformers. Word of warning, it does start hard and get harder. But don't be disheartened if you die a lot!

Very fun game if you like Super Meat Boy (fast-paced walljump platformer, particularly recommended if you liked the doublejump characters in that game). Game's pretty hard so I only recommend it if you have notable experience in similar games. Very very fun imo. Great visuals and music btw. Definitely replaying this bad boy at some point. Btw the difficulty curve is starting topleft (jungle) in the hub and going clockwise and ending with bottomleft (fire).
