The gameplay is described as fast-paced and arcade-like, offering a variety of modes and difficulty settings to cater to different player preferences. However, it lacks accommodations for players with motion sickness, which can be problematic due to the rapid camera movements and spinning mechanics.
“No options that accommodate for people who suffer from motion sickness, which is a big problem for a game that not only goes very fast but also has a game mechanic that spins the camera around 360 degrees very quickly, sometimes in quick succession.”
“Gameplay is very arcadey, but can get very challenging depending on what you want. It has many modes and challenges to achieve, with many possible difficulty settings; it's up to you.”
