About the game

Fight through Purgatory in a janky adventure where you and your friends are ethereally chained together. Wield chain magic, bully enemies with chain physics, and make terrible decisions in this game full of gratuitous amounts of jiggle physics. Built by a solo dev when mom wasn't home.

    This game has a few interesting ideas, but the execution is quite poor overall. The main chain gimmick isn't explored well enough through with the magic system, the platforming is needlessly excessive but also way too easy, and the combat just doesn't grow in any meaningful way. It really felt like a chore to play after the first 90 minutes or so, and by 3 hours my co-op partner tapped out. I would love to think…

    The game has a LOT of potential, but the execution is terrible. The chain mechanic is a great concept, but it's explored very poorly. The chain is mostly useless during fights, and spending points to increase its length basically feels like a waste. The way it suddenly pulls you back when you roll and reach the end of the chain is also incredibly annoying for no real reason. I expected much more from the chain…
