“It does suffer from some of the same things that often pull down other 3D speedrunning games like this - the controls feel very weird at first, and the game has a tendency to just kill you sometimes if you hit a piece of geometry wrong or fail to correctly interpret where the level designer wants you to go (a task that isn't made any easier by the, let's say 'busy' aesthetic).”
