Explore a strange planet, collect the creatures you find, and then shape-shift into them to expand your world. Build your own path, chat with the locals, and discover the planets sprawling secrets in this quirky metroidvania platformer.
Players praise the smooth, responsive controls that underpin the protagonist's movement. Reviewers describe the running, jumping, and wall-jumping as "silky" and "rewarding," with a difficulty curve that challenges players without feeling unfair. One reviewer notes the controls occasionally feel "a bit slippery," but overall the platforming provides a satisfying challenge.
A unique mechanic allows players to transform into different creatures after collecting their eggs. Each creature form grants distinct movement abilities, such as flight, digging, or wall-clinging. Reviewers highlight this transformation system as a creative way to expand the platforming possibilities, requiring players to strategically swap between forms to navigate the environments.
The game's Metroidvania-style design encourages non-linear exploration of an interconnected world. As players unlock new creature abilities, they can revisit previous areas and access previously inaccessible sections. While some reviewers note occasional frustration with backtracking, most praise the satisfying feeling of gradually uncovering the game's secrets and expanding their movement options.
Instead of traditional combat, the boss encounters focus on platforming challenges. Players must dodge the bosses' attacks and find opportunities to incapacitate them, often by using the creatures' unique abilities. Reviewers describe these boss fights as interesting and well-designed, providing a suitable challenge without relying on combat.
The game's relatively short length and tight platforming mechanics have led to a thriving speedrunning community. Many reviewers highlight the game's replayability, with achievements and challenges that encourage players to master the movement and complete the game in new ways.
