ABOUT THE GAME
With a little traveler
A gemstone that gives you the power to float.
The chosen traveler carries a purification gem to the shrine above. Look around at the scaffolding scattered on the purple terrain, and advance by combining movement on the ground and movement in the air.
IN THE AIR
Once you leave the ground,
Check the height with the scaffolding.
In the air, a red trail stretches behind the little traveler. This is a scene where you move while checking the gauge in the upper left as well as the foothold and your position on the screen.

Jump and float with the same key
The upward input is used for jumping on the ground and for floating in the air. Combined with left and right movement, it approaches distant terrain.
A road that crosses waterfalls and darkness
The official introduction states that waterfalls, scaffolding, and encroaching darkness await you on your way. The path that carries the jewels also leads to an old temple.
A landscape where a small figure stands out
The main character is drawn smaller than the terrain, and even distant scaffolding fits on the same screen. The background with overlapping purple layers and the red trajectory of the main character are landmarks.
