It's a game about perfecting your route.

You enter a level. Explore the course. Learn the obstacles. Blaze a trail to the end. Next, beat all of the medal ghosts: bronze, silver, gold, ultima. Now, set yourself a goal. Top 150 on the level's leaderboard? Maybe I can swing that. Scout yourself a fast path through the level. Practice it. Modify it. Wonder if this crazy idea will work or not. Turns out that nutty idea got you into the top 100 on the leaderboard. Watch the ghosts of the best players. Wow, they did the same thing. Guess it wasn't so stupid. Or: hey, they did something completely different. I'm not sure if I can mimic them, but I can try.

The game features accessible bunny-hopping. Jump with correct timing to go faster. There's wall-running, sliding, rocketeering flight, and climbing. Use your parkour skills to navigate extreme obstacle courses.

I think it's fun. I really enjoy working on a route while listening to something in the background. The high-speed and precision you can pull off keeps me coming back. It was neat seeing levels in a new light as I got better. Regularly adding a new nuanced understanding of a mechanic to my arsenal was always an exciting realization. It's a nice way to be competitive. It's ferocious but also low-key and private.

Plays best if you enjoy improving on your previous performance. Refining your abilities. Maybe I don't recommend it if you expect to only venture through it casually. If you've never played this genre, this is a friendly way to give it try. If you like the genre, I think it's worth full price. There's plenty of levels.

After you put in some time this game plays much more fast and fluid than you'd think it to be at first. It's a great, challenging time. Bunny-gliding at 100 MPH is sublime. Kicking yourself across a chasm never gets old.

You have 180-degree spin kicking, wall running, wall kicking, bunny-sliding, vaulting, crouching and "high jumping" with ground kicks. It's an excellent game to work on improving your runs and beating the challenging medal times while you have on some background listening.

I'm biased because I really enjoy the first-person precision platformer, speedrunning genre. This game is similar to Neon White, SEUM: Speedrunners from Hell, Cloudbuilt, High Hell and Hell of an Office.

I recommend playing on mouse and keyboard. You need to be able to do 130-degree turns regularly to play this game to its maximum potential. If that sounds uncomfortable, maybe avoid this. For ergonomic concerns I recommend moving "crouch" to a mouse button.

There's some modest UI bugs. Such as when you select Super Kick mode and switching worlds, the buttons disappear. Exiting and re-entering the menu fixes it though.

100 short but action-packed platforming levels, which you're incentivized to do as fast a possible with medals awarded for hitting under a certain time. The primary gimmick is "rocket jumping" but other mechanics such as air dashing will join your arsenal. Playing this game is like playing 3D Sonic in first person: when you get the hang of it, you can go very fast.

The big downside is it takes a good 8 hours of practice before you don't totally stink at the movement. I found the early hours to be a little dull and unpleasant. My enjoyment increased with my skill as I got practice in. I really liked it by the end, or rather the end of my highscore hunting.

It makes for a very good podcast game. It's great to work your runs towards a diamond medal while listening to or watching something else.

I enjoyed the zany, abstract office spaces between level packs. They were cute to explore.

I like it a lot as a score-attacking, speed-running game. If you enjoy replaying short levels tens of times trying to execute them as perfectly and as quickly as you can, I recommend this game. If you just want an FPS campaign, I would not recommend you buy it. GoldenEye meets Hotline Miami and SEUM: Speedrunners From Hell?
