Full description

An endless runner with an old school PS1 horror aesthetic. You have to run through an abandoned small town, having to dodge different obstacles on the road, or risk getting caught by a dangerous entity, known only as the Strainer. The Strainer will endlessly pursue you, never tiring, but always a bit slower than you are. The only reason it might catch you is if you trip, and if you do, it might be over. Throughout your run, collect the souls of those fallen before you. You can use these to either buy upgrades to give yourself new abilities. The new abilities will allow you to get further and further each time, but in the end, you will always meet your fate to the Strainer. Or, you can use them to buy skins, to customize and personalize your character. Allowing you to get a bit of levity in what otherwise is an endless struggle.
