The gameplay is characterized by a mix of enjoyable mechanics, such as wall-flinging and a strong soundtrack, but is hindered by floaty physics, control issues, and frustrating hitboxes that detract from precision and skill-based play. Players express a desire for more levels and game modes to enhance variety, but current gameplay feels overly reliant on luck rather than skill. Overall, while there are fun elements, the lack of control can lead to a frustrating experience.
- “I would love to play some more main levels if the developers decide to add more down the line. With new mechanics coming in future updates, maybe it could be a possibility?”
- “Excellent soundtrack and has some pretty cool movement mechanics, like flinging yourself up walls.”
- “The developer is improving the game gradually, but as it stands right now, it has some control issues, bad hitboxes, frustrating physics, and unforgiving gameplay.”
- “Don't get me wrong, some of the levels are fun, but you can't have ultra precise levels with the type of gameplay this game has, because it will mostly feel up to luck and not skill.”
- “New game modes would be nice, kind of like Geometry Dash. I wouldn't mind having some levels switch up the gameplay style, like changing the shape of the cube, etc.”
