The monetization strategy of the developers has been criticized as unethical, with accusations of plagiarism and cash grabs through the use of uncredited assets from other creators. Users have noted a pattern of suspicious activity, including the creation of fake reviews and the use of multiple accounts to promote these low-effort games, suggesting a focus on profit over quality.
“The developers here didn't credit any of the artists and real, actual game developers who created the assets, so this is plagiarism as well as a cash grab.”
“Falco Software/Laush Studio have shown a repeat pattern of unethically dumping other people's work onto Steam as a cheap, nasty cash grab through this account or closely linked/alternate accounts.”
“They're all written in either Russian or broken English, appear at almost exactly the same time shortly 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 graphics are generally considered acceptable and functional for the game's style, though some users express a desire for a remake with improved visuals. While the game is described as cheap, it effectively supports its gameplay, which focuses on fast-paced action and looting. Overall, the graphics serve their purpose but leave room for enhancement.
“It's a cheap game but it's a good game; the graphics are okay and do the job. Sound is great, and gameplay is so far awesome. It's somewhat like Painkiller/Serious Sam type game, mindless killing and collecting stuff the monsters drop when killed to level up your skills, so 'mindless killing looter shooter.'”
“Great music, variety of opponents, not bad graphics, character leveling.”
“I wish someone would make a remake of this with much better graphics and more dynamic, interesting combat.”
“The graphics feel outdated and lack the detail that modern games offer.”
“The visual style is bland and doesn't do justice to the game's potential.”

“It's a cheap game but it's a good game. The graphics are okay and do the job, the sound is great, and the gameplay is awesome. It's somewhat like a Painkiller/Serious Sam type game, featuring mindless killing and collecting items dropped by monsters to level up your skills. It's a true 'mindless killing looter shooter'!”
