Um plataformer puzzle com mecânica de teleporte, muito bacaninha e pode ser zerado rapidinho. Mas também tem coisinhas secretas para você re-jogar e pegar.

A short game with an interesting mechanic that's utilized well.

cute lil game that, for sure, is one and done and to forget that you ever played it

Achei bem genérico esse jogo. Os personagens e a história desse jogo não me cativou muito, os puzzle são legais... Até vc travar neles. Não sei se sou burro ou o que, mas teve um puzzle que me fez literalmente travar no jogo e com isso eu não consegui progredir na história, depois de um bom tempo tentando sair desse puzzle, eu simplesmente larguei o jogo e deixei ele de lado.

Sights & Sounds
- Visually, it's not much to look at. Although the character portrait designs and color choices are nice, the pixel art of the environments and characters is sorta generic
- The music is pretty decent. Again, sorta generic little chiptunes, but still nice

Story & Vibes
- Given that it's a short game, the story is a quick run through. In a nutshell, your ship is shot down as you're pursuing the game's villain. After crash landing, you need to find a part to fix your ship as well as some (optional) upgrades to make it stronger
- Not much going on vibe-wise. It's a relatively chill little puzzle platformer

Playability & Replayability
- The game largely plays as a puzzle platformer with a focus on exploration
- You just run through the environments solving jumping puzzles. Paying close attention to the room layout and small details within each screen may yield additional upgrades for your ship, which make the final boss easier
- I might be back in the future to replay and nab some more achievements. It's a fun, quick game

Overall Impressions & Performance
- Being such an inexpensive game, it's really hard to get too upset about the slightly generic design and gameplay. It's well worth the price of admission
- Ran perfectly fine on the Steam Deck after switching from Proton Experimental -> 8.02

Final Verdict
- 6/10. It's a competently-made puzzle platformer at an extremely good value. If you're craving a platformer but don't have much time, this is an easy game to recommend
