It's definitely worth it! I was on a budget and was looking for a really good platforming game for a low price, this definitely hits the spot! It's definitely worth the 1.99, It's a very addicting game and also has 2 different modes depending on what type of person you are! 9/10, would definitely recommend!
Came into this game after playing a couple hundred hours of this dev's follow-up game, We Are Eva, and thought it would be worth giving this one a try as well. It's kinda cool to see a few of the ideas from Eva first showing up in this game. Like Eva, it's a bit frustrating on your first run-through, but it starts to really shine with its replay value.
