However, one character's controls are inverted, so each level feels like a puzzle.
- Control 2 characters that move in opposite directions at the same time.
- Oh! One of those characters ALSO has reversed gravity.
- Play 100 levels with 5 boss fights that will test your puzzle-solving and platforming skills.
- A very unique final boss fight that is not like most out there.
- Not a gamer? No problem! The game's training wheels help you get ready to complete your journey.
- You are a gamer and want challenging puzzles? No problem! Good luck!
- Minimalist art and relaxing music to help cut the tension in the tougher stages.
