  • A special blend of calculated RNG and spices for unique plays with each attempt
  • 12 semi-hidden achievements
  • All in a single game mode

A shaded oasis in the distance

Desert sands with no end in sight; that is until, a jagged sign points you in the direction of salvation. Hope still remains...!



But it was just a moment's respite

Relief from the sweltering heat lasts only a few seconds, before a daunting rustle in the leaves above makes you weary. An opening in the canopy lets forth a concentrated beam of blinding light and blistering heat. It doesn't look good, but at least you've bought yourself some time.



How long will you survive?

Run, jump, and roll your way to safety in this 1-bit arcade. Various obstacles come your way, but know that there is a light at the end of the forest. Er, tunnel.
