In the game, the player controls a scientist named Trace who awakens in a bizarre alien world after a lab accident. The entire game (including art, code, game and sound design) was developed solely by Happ over a period of four years.

The game serves as a loving homage to several games of the NES, 8-bit and 16-bit era, drawing inspiration from classics such as Metroid, Contra and Blaster Master, among many others.
