It's another indie love letter to gaming.

It's got the drug like 90s aesthetic and level intro cards from Rayman.

It's got platforming similar to the Wario Land series and Sonic, with a heavy emphasis on maintaining momentum.

It's got a mechanic that is just straight up the shine spark from the Metroid series.

It's got the animation of old DOS games at a high framerates, the game looks like it was drawn in MS Paint.

It's actually got quite a bit of horror in it, mostly goofy. But I find it to be scarier than most horror games because the rest of the game is so normal. That title screen jumpscare really got me good.

The controls are really finicky and precise. They are really good but not really built for casual gameplay. The goal is to go fast and look good doing it. I find myself missing inputs and things don't really work out the way I want them to 20% of the time but when it does work it's super satisfying.

The final boss section singlehandedly raises this games rating by half a star. It is incredible and the best part of the game in my opinion.

Not my favorite platformer or anything, but if you are looking for a game to play and you like speedy platformers I'd check it out. The price is a little steep though coming in at 25 CAD.
