- “Fun mechanic complemented with clever level design that encourages fast reactive gameplay.”
- “Challenging game with carefully designed levels, cute pixel graphic style and good mechanics.”
- “So-called skills when it's just point and click, one-dimensional gameplay. You get softlocked if you don't do what the game wants you to do, resulting in a full restart. Not even 90s platformer games' knockback is this bad.”
- “Has room for polish, of course. It would be nice to be able to jump through the bottom of platforms so I don't get stuck on them, and I'm sure there's something wrong with the 'rocket jump' mechanic (sometimes it pulls me down, even!).”
- “The game has a minor gameplay issue.”
