The humor in the game often stems from its janky animations, particularly the comical 360-degree spin of the character during a double jump, which adds an unintended layer of amusement to the gameplay experience.
“There's not much in the way of animations, so when you do a double jump, the static image of your character just revolves around 360 degrees. That's so janky it's almost funny.”
