What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Players praise the game's retro pixel art style and substantial content offering, with particular appeal to fans of classic platformers like Rayman and Super Meat Boy. However, common complaints focus on the audio design having sharp, inconsistently balanced sound effects, overly aggressive visuals, and poorly implemented secret rooms that lack clear visual cues, forcing players to blindly test every wall rather than rewarding exploration skill and making 100% completion frustrating rather than satisfying.

Not recommended Jul 2, 2021
-Pretty good visually, although a bit aggressive on the eyes. -The music is decent, but the sound affects are a bit sharp and can get annoying fast. Also some of the sounds are much louder than they should be. -Secret rooms the way this game implements them just result in annoying gameplay. Most platformers that have fake walls leading to secrets generally have obvious visual cues that let you know its a secret if you are actively looking for them. In this game there is zero indication that a wall is fake. So this means if you want to 100% a level you just need to run into every single wall in the level to see if it is fake, this results in a very annoying gameplay experience. -Level design feels a bit too simplistic and bigger than it really needs to be. Pair this with the really low difficulty of the game and the result is the game feeling like a chore to play. I ended up quitting about half way through world 2 out of 4. Im sure it gets a little harder later, but that would still mean at least half the game is boring.

Great game, perfect for retro and pixel art fans - if you're one of them, you definitely need to try it. And I really like to explore levels to find all hidden rooms.

This is a perfect indie game if you miss playing Rayman or Super Meat Boy and would like to try something in retro style. Plenty of content, challenges for completionists as well as speedrunners and bosses which require perfect jumps and dodges. Do you like what you see in the trailer? Or you're at least interested? This is exactly what you'll get.
