### 5/5 — Great game

*2026-07-26, version 1.1*

Love this game, it’s nice to come back to again after you’ve completed it and I can’t help but think that there’s a story here from the dev about a real life relationship going very, very wrong…

### 5/5 — Peak

*2025-07-10*

Peak gaming. This game is so peak

### 3/5 — Glitch

*2024-02-26, version 1.1*

Good game but it glitches out at level 42 when you go down the stairs. I don’t know if it’s just mine, but the character begins to float when it shouldn’t be. I used a “shadow guide” to see if this was meant to happen, and it’s not. I’ve tried restarting the game but it doesn’t change the outcome. 
Great game though other than that.

### 5/5 — Great and addictive

*2024-01-31, version 1.1*

Such a simple idea but really well done with great retro style graphics and gameplay. 
Has lots of replay value.

### 3/5 — soo annoying to play

*2022-11-20, version 1.1*

why not just give us normal controls? genuinely one of the most confusing plat former games I’ve seen in a while. if you want an actual one w/ a slightly edgy and good story- play hop bound. It gives you an actual jump button </3 Still, if you’re actually good at timing (I’m not lol) this might be a fun game. just, not for me.

### 5/5 — bruv

*2022-10-07, version 1.1*

Make it longer you jokeman

### 4/5 — ^_*

*2022-08-12*

Игра нормальная но я не могу практически 2 голову

### 3/5 — 面白いけどやる気失せた

*2022-05-21, version 1.1*

確かにこのゲームは面白いけど
自分はlevel42of50?のとこでバグで引っかかり動けなくなりました。正直きついです。時間が無駄になりました。
出来ればリスタート？リスポーン？を入れてくれると助かります。
あとしょうがないことですけど幽霊うざいですw

### 5/5 — It’s a great game of the classic variety

*2021-09-06, version 1.1*

This game felt fresh when I first played it upon release and it’s just as fun now. Played it on the plane and had a good time. We need more games like this—the story isn’t too chant and the game is concise

### 5/5 — Good

*2021-07-16, version 1.1*

Good
