Gameplay reviews highlight a stark contrast in experiences: while some players find the platforming mechanics overly complicated and frustrating due to lack of linearity, punishing fall damage, and excessive enemies, others praise the unique and enjoyable bubble mechanics that allow for creative interactions with the environment. Overall, the gameplay seems to evoke strong reactions, with some players feeling overwhelmed and others reveling in the fun and innovative mechanics.
- “I was blown away (pun intended) by the environment, sound, and mechanics.”
- “Fun and unique bubble mechanic.”
- “Especially the mechanics of flying in a bubble and using them to transport obstacles was very interesting!”
- “What should be a simple platformer lacks any linearity (the objectives only being presented once per level in the unnecessarily complicated opening cutscenes) and contains many superfluous combat mechanics, unforgiving fall damage, a stupid amount of enemies, and more one-shot obstacles than I've seen in any other game.”
- “After the tutorial, I was sick of the mechanics, and by level 3 I had given up on trying to solve the puzzles altogether and just walked to the end after glitching my way out of the map.”
- “This game is wildly fun; the amount of abuse you can do to these stages with the mechanics provided shouldn't be legal.”
