### 4/5 — Je m’ennuie

*2025-08-16, version 1.0*

Ce jeu est super cool mais je joue depuis très longtemps et je recommence toute les zones en boucle et j’aimerais bien que vous mettez de nouvelles zones

### 5/5 — Best game

### 5/5 — Best. Game. Ever

*2022-06-11, version 1.0*

Best. Game. Ever.

### 1/5 — DUMB ADS AND BREAK TIME

*2022-06-01*

I’m trying to do the arena but ads pop up at the beginning and every time the ad finishes it say break time and I can’t do the arena so I can’t fight so I go to the home menu and try again and it JUST KEEPS REPEATING

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2022-05-21*

Just downloaded the game and it’s great
Unconventionally fun
Definitely worth downloading
Everyone will love it

### 5/5 — Worth your time!

*2022-05-21*

Good time passer, even without internet! Simple but fun graphics, good audio and music, great gameplay! Game is a little campy at times, but it is a fun kind of campy. Other than that, UI is a little weird but wouldn’t have you change anything other than that! Good job making a game all by yourself! One of these days, Apple has to notice you and feature this game! 6/5!

### 5/5 — amazing

*2022-05-07, version 1.0*

### 5/5 — Норм

*2022-05-02, version 1.0*

Игра не плохая. Правда ещё к управлению надо привыкнуть, а так всё прикольно.

### 5/5 — Awesome action platformer!

*2022-04-30*

Been having a blast playing through story mode and a little bit of arena mode. Touch controls work great and controllers are supported too. Another great mobile game from the talented solo dev. Definitely check this one out!

**Developer response:** Thanks so much!

### 1/5 — Очень странные дела

*2022-04-29, version 1.0*

Эту игру делает помойной одна фишка: невозможность выйти из уровня в главное меню.
