The monetization strategy of ltzinc is heavily criticized as a cash grab, with the game being labeled an asset flip that was hastily released on Steam alongside other similar low-effort titles. The presence of cheap bundles and suspicious review practices further underscores the perception of exploitation rather than genuine game development.
“The developer, ltzinc, took a template from the godawful GameMaker Studio from YoYoGames, slapped a couple of asset-flipped sprites on it, and dumped the results onto Steam as a cash grab scam.”
“To cement the position of this asset flip as nothing but a cash grab, it was dumped onto cheap daily indie game shovelware bundles on launch day.”
“They're all written in either Russian or broken English, appear almost immediately after the game launched on Steam, all have a direct Steam purchase of the game, and the accounts are used consistently to write fake reviews for asset flips and other cash grabs/scams.”

The gameplay is seen as having potential, but it requires further refinement in mechanics and animation to reach its full potential and become a standout experience.
“With a little more love from the devs, some work on the mechanics and animation, and it would be something truly special.”
