  • Clarity Update - 24 September 2025

    Hi all, Most of this update is adding clarity to various places of the game to make it more obvious what you need to be doing, what is going on and just generally make the experience smoother. The only balance update is: Your base jump duration is increased from 0.8 -> 1.0 seconds. This will make shockwave (and other jump-only attacks) a bit more forgiving early on!

  • Minor Update Post Launch - 14 August 2025

    Thank you everyone for buying and supporting the game. It was really amazing to see people earning achievements and enjoying themselves. so thank you so much! A couple of minor bugs were fixed thanks to feedback from reviews and messages. If you encounter any more please do let me know! Known issue The void attack does not stop when game is paused, allowing you to essentially "skip" it. however due to how much time this takes to execute, for an attack that doesnt hurt you, that will also probably spawn again soon anyway. I think it really isn't a priority, if people wanna cheese they can cheese!
