The gameplay is engaging and enjoyable, particularly for speedrunning enthusiasts who can quickly master the mechanics and key binds. However, some players find the mechanics a bit rough, noting issues like slippery controls and erratic camera corrections, which can hinder precision. Additionally, the absence of a global leaderboard is seen as a drawback.
- “The few game mechanics are more than enough to make a speed running game fun to master. I got the hang of the key binds and mechanics in a few minutes and enjoyed flying through the levels with ease.”
- “Very neat parkour game with solid gameplay.”
- “Cons: mechanics feel a bit rough, the game feels slippery, the grappling hook can launch you to space, and the game tries to autocorrect your camera when you land on uneven territory, which can make you overcorrect if you're trying to do it yourself. There's no global leaderboard as far as I can tell.”
- “It's just gameplay.”
