Acknowledgment
This game was made in Pico-8. Special thanks to all the playtesters; without you, this game wouldn't exist.
The game is now also available Newgrounds (with achievements) and itch.io.
Update - 2025-04-05
For the one-year anniversary, I decided to introduce a new difficulty option called “Easy.” to make the game more approachable and to encourage more players to complete it. The primary change is that players won’t lose all progress upon death; instead, they’ll restart from the last finished level. This should make the game much more approachable and easier to complete. For those seeking a tougher challenge, the original difficulty remains available under the label “Classic.”
