- Brutal level design: The twenty-four stages start simple but quickly introduce hazards. You have to plan your arc or you will restart frequently.

How to Play
Steel Head: Mastering the swipe
Using your mouse or finger, drag back to launch yourself. The Steel Head controls rely on momentum, so the further you pull, the harder you hit. If you underestimate the distance, you will simply bounce off a ledge and plummet. Learning how to play Steel Head requires measuring your force.
Why Steel Head gets punishing
Later stages turn into a absolute nightmare of geometry. You need to account for weird angles and gaps that force you to hit specific hitboxes. A common mistake is over-shooting your target; stop trying to launch at max power every time. Some levels feel kind of unfair during the first few attempts.
