3The story is [[ExcusePlot pretty much an excuse for you to go on a monster genocide]]. One day, an anonymous Greek warrior is about to have lunch, when a monster comes and [[LostFoodGrievance steals said lunch from his hands]]. Enraged, the warrior decides to jump down a mountain and glide towards any monster he can find, [[DisproportionateRetribution brutally slaughtering any he can lay his hands on, no matter how big it is.]]
4
5To this end, the warrior has a sword (To kill monsters) and a grappling hook (To grab the monsters when he's gliding towards them). Everything from doing the initial jump to throwing the grappling hook is done with a single button. As you glide a certain distance, boss monsters appear, which require [[PressXToNotDie a number of timed button presses to slay]]. As you kill monsters and do repeated gliding rampages, you earn money with which to upgrade the warrior's equipment to ease his RoaringRampageOfRevenge.

8!! This game provides examples of:
9* BadassCape: that lets you glide for longer.
10* CaptainErsatz: It's quite hard to not look at the premise of the game and not think that the warrior is probably this to [[VideoGame/GodOfWar Kratos]].
11* ComedicSociopathy
12* CoolHelmet
13* CoolSword
14* DisproportionateRetribution: '[[LostFoodGrievance That monster has stolen my lunch! That's it! All monsters will DIE HORRIBLY!]]'
15* HarpingOnAboutHarpies: One of the kinds of monster is harpies.
16* HeyItsThatSound: Players of ''VideoGame/TheBreach'' will be happy to hear the red demons dying, as it uses the same sound as one of the exploding bugs.
17* LostFoodGrievance: Don't steal the Warrior's food.
18* {{Oculothorax}}: The first enemy is a floating eyeball.
19** EyeScream
20* [[OminousLatinChanting Ominous Greek Chanting]]: What starts playing right after you jump into the fray.
21* PressXToNotDie: When grappled to one of the boss monsters, you have to time your button presses so that the arrow is on the green area. If you fail, or take too much time, you are instantly released, and lose a lot of speed, making grappling again difficult.
22* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: [[LostFoodGrievance Having his food stolen]] drives the warrior to this.
23* TestosteronePoisoning: A muscular man with a cool-looking sword and a BadassCape jumping from monster to monster, tearing them to shreds at the sound of [[OminousLatinChanting Ominous Chanting]]? All because his lunch has been stolen? Lots of points to qualify for this.
24* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: The monsters have done nothing to deserve this mass murder at the hands of the player character, other than taking away his lunch.
