I don't think this is a bad game, it just didn't vibe well with me, has really cool aesthetics but the controls really threw me off.

I liked the vaporwave aesthetics, and the game in all was pretty enjoyable. Swinging around and building momentum was fun, and the music wasn't bad either. But when I got to the last 10 levels, they were so hard it felt unfun. I still finished it to prove that I could do it, but more than satisfaction I was glad that I was finally done with this game.
total skill issue moment i know but i wish they were challenge stages instead lol

Starts off as an easy to learn, hard to master kind of game with how it controls, taking you through a bunch of cool looking levels that ramps up the difficulty reasonably well. Then you get to the final 20 levels and that curve turns into many peaks with few valleys. That said, I'd be lying if I said I didn't have a good time with those last few levels, albeit in a masochistic way. I needed to grow more hair on my chest, anyways.

An absolute joy to play for most of the runtime, but jesus christ level designers have a reasonable difficulty curve in a game that already has plenty of challenge with its ranking system challenge (impossible!)
