Development

Development of the game was performed by the studio Molegato. The game was crowdfunded with Kickstarter in July 2021. [4] The aesthetics of the game were inspired by various home console games from the 1990s and handheld console games from the 2000s. [1] In development it was decided that the game would not stick to specific technical limitations associated with those consoles, leading to the use of " 32-bit" style graphics alongside " 16-bit" style audio. [1]

Reviewers generally noted the difficulty of fully completing the game. [3] [15] In their review, Nintendo Life particularly noted the difficulty associated with racing sections of the game. [13] Push Square's review noted the difficulty of some platforming elements. [16]

The graphical style and general gameplay feel being similar to games from the 1990s was commonly cited by reviewers as a distinguishing feature. [6] [3]

Writing for PC Gamer, Matt Paprocki noted the appeal of the game for speedrunners. [15]
