More about this game
Your goal is to climb five moonlit rooms and claim the crescent key. The core loop involves jumping between platforms, dodging floating toy ghosts, avoiding clay traps, and throwing lances to defeat enemies. As you progress, the rooms feature more ghosts that move faster and become trickier to dodge. A run ends if your armor hearts reach zero, but you can retry from your highest secured checkpoint room.
Tips
- Time your jumps carefully to avoid the clay traps on the edges of platforms.
- Throw lances early, as they have a cooldown of 0.38 seconds.
- Pay attention to the ghosts' movement patterns, as their speed increases in higher rooms.
Questions
How many hits can I take?
You start with 3 armor hearts. Taking damage from ghosts or traps removes one heart. If you reach 0 hearts, you must restart from your last checkpoint.
How do I get my health back?
You can find armor hearts on the 6th platform in rooms 2 and 4. Collecting one restores 1 heart, up to a maximum of 3.
What happens if I fall off the bottom of the screen?
Falling off the bottom of the screen will deal 1 damage and respawn you at the bottom platform of the current room.
