About the game

A spirit has fallen from the moon, landing in a magical but long-forgotten underworld of wild nature and man-made stone relics. While fragments of the underworld remain, the stone ledges easily crumble under the slightest touch, forcing the spirit to keep moving as they find their way up back home. If the spirit falls into a space between two ledges, they fall into the abyss. If the spirit stays too long on a stone ledge, the ledge crumbles, and they fall into the abyss. 

As the spirit progresses through their journey, they must also defeat the slimy monsters who live amongst the corners of the underworld and attempt to capture the spirit. Can the spirit successfully return home?
