In this platformer, jumping will be your main mechanic as you climb the level, each jump matters, if you miss a jump, you have to restart. You may be small but so are the platforms.

The value story

April 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $0.69. 7 discounts in the 2 years on record. They run about 50 percent off, roughly 7 weeks apart.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 2 percent on value. It is cheaper than 65 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 92 percent. Among the games that feel like it, ElecHead ($9.99, scores 76) beats it on value, while it beats Islets ($19.99, scores 68).

Steam's global achievement data puts about 7 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. On a 2.1-hour game, the hours short of it still count in its price per hour.

The drop-off

34% start to 7% finish
050100rarestfirst achievement

Steam counts fewer than one in ten of its players at the ending achievement. On a 2.1-hour game, that's a lot you pay for and may never use. Steam global achievements
