It's hard, taking care of a pet. Especially when they're connected to your life force...

You, the player, have a parasite. A hungry, yet friendly, creature. It doesn't do much to harm you, but if you let it die, you shall too.

Your parasite needs to eat too! Unfortunately, he only eats a special fruit that is found in an old cave system full of dangerous creatures and obstacles. But it's worth it, if you enjoy being alive.

Controls & Advice:

• ASWD- Player Movement
• Arrow Keys- Parasite Movement
• E- Sword
• Click- Interact
