Description
About This Game
With a giant pet cube tied to your hand, clear through rooms of enemies in a realm of abstract but lighthearted chaos. Collect Actions and Stickers mid-run to customize the Cube's commands, opening up several synergies and combos that can cleave through anyone... including you. Avoid getting obliterated by collateral damage and manage the Cube's automatic and manual behavior to ensure you're on the living side of every fight. Take its power as far as you can handle, or die trying.

Help Ava create a terrifying pet weapon
During a run, you will find new Actions and Stickers to add to the Cube through a cute interactive menu. Each Action has its own properties and synergistic effects (such as conditional states or elemental effects), leading to satisfying combo sequences.
Your Stickers supplement the Cube with their own passives and effects, but they also greatly benefit from being next to other specific Sticker effects. The ordering of your Actions and placement of your Stickers is key to optimizing the Cube's performance.
Command the Cube, as best as you can
Each Command will play every Action on its line in a sequence. You can smoothly direct the Cube with Manual Overrides, aiming its attacks at your cursor in each step of the sequence. The cooldown of each Manual Override depends on which Actions were performed...
...but while you're waiting on that, the Cube will automatically perform the last-used Command on nearby targets, forcefully dragging you along. There's no dropping the leash, so you must use movement mechanics, jumps, and timed cube mounts to avoid becoming another victim of the Cube's rampage. Mismanaging the Cube's Patience or leaving a poorly-constructed Command on auto can quickly lead to your death (though you get 3 lives per run).
Fight Raid Bosses with past runs
After clearing a dungeon, your run data is saved. You can then use the saved run to fight exclusive Raid Bosses, letting you relive your godruns and put them to the test.
