The graphics of the game have received overwhelmingly negative feedback, with many users comparing them to outdated flash games from the early 2000s. While some describe the 2D visuals as decent and colorful, the overall consensus is that the graphics lack polish and innovation, failing to meet modern standards despite claims of being "HD." Many reviewers find the art style unappealing and repetitive, contributing to a lackluster gaming experience.
- “The graphics are perfect for the style of game this is.”
- “Decent and colorful 2D graphics.”
- “Graphically this is just about as good as a flash game, the art is neatly drawn and the animations are nice enough for what it tried to portray.”
- “Graphics are kind of 'okay', but reminds me of the mid 90's shareware games, even the GIF archives online... one of the stages is distracting in this way.”
- “The HD in the title looks like a mockery, because it looks like a flash game and the same graphics could be achieved way back in the early 00s, even before the 2003 release from the trailer.”
- “A terrible game, lame graphics and ever lamer gameplay.”

- “Videos on their Steam store page show all the gameplay there is; if you watch them, you've seen 99% of the gameplay without buying the game.”
- “The gameplay is relatively repetitive, but the surprise bonuses and the general being held in an unknown building make the gameplay pretty decent, as well as the weather influencing the ability to see your aircraft.”

The story in the game is minimal and revolves around a straightforward mission to bomb enemy buildings, with repetitive gameplay and a lack of depth in narrative. Players encounter various bosses that introduce minor challenges, but the overarching plot remains simplistic, culminating in a celebratory cutscene that lacks significant character development or complexity. Overall, the narrative serves more as a backdrop for the gameplay rather than a compelling story.
- “Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
- “Patton, Rommel, Montgomery?... We want to know the story behind him!”
- “There isn’t any complicated story either; basically, there is a guy who keeps coming to certain cities to bomb them, while he takes off from hidden places where usually a gate opens and the aircraft comes out to take off. In the end, a cutscene appears with him and his five aircraft being happy, meanwhile a ton of fireworks are exploding in the sky in the background.”
- “There isn’t any complicated story either, basically there is a guy who keeps coming to certain cities to bomb them, while he takes off from the ground (from hidden places, where usually a gate opens and the aircraft comes out to take off), and in the final, a cut scene appears with him and with his 5 aircrafts being happy, meanwhile a ton of fireworks are exploding on the sky in the background.”
- “The missions are the exact same thing, and while there are different planes you can fly, it's only an aesthetic.”
- “Patton, Rommel, Montgomery?... we wanna know the story behind him!”
