The graphics of the game are visually appealing, featuring a gorgeous art style; however, players express frustration over the lack of adjustable settings for graphics quality, which limits optimization and performance.
“The art style looks gorgeous too.”
“Other games with higher graphics stick to 38-42° so I hope this one can be better optimized someday.”
“It's a Minecraft-like game (Skyblock), but the downside is that it doesn't have any settings, so you cannot adjust or change the graphics/quality.”
