Skip it if you…

Our take on FLATLAND Vol.1
The likely bounce point is the difficulty ramp: players may manage the early stages, then hit a wall when later levels become extremely difficult. Fast respawns shorten the wait after failure, but the core loop still asks players to retry and learn.
What is FLATLAND Vol.1?
FLATLAND Vol.
1 is a 2D platformer set in a minimalist neon world. Players guide Square through handcrafted levels on a journey toward the depths of Flatland, using simple controls with additional layers to master. The levels grow harder as the game progresses, from challenging stages to extremely difficult ones. Secrets are also placed throughout the levels. The central loop is to run and jump, die, learn from the attempt, and try again. Rapid respawns let players return to a level quickly after a death, including during its harder sections.
