The graphics quality of the game has received mixed feedback; while it shows significant improvement over its predecessor and offers a wealth of content for scene creation, some users find it lacking compared to genre standards. The software is praised for its potential in animation and design, with features like custom model imports, but it still suffers from bugs and performance issues that can strain hardware. Overall, it is seen as a valuable tool for smaller projects, though it may require further refinement for more extensive work.
- “This is a major improvement on the old version of the game, which had huge performance issues. This game runs at high graphics levels and has so much content to create scenes and animated content. It's almost like a complete game editor with some really cool functions. I haven't gotten right into the depths of this version yet, but I plan to use this software in the future. You can import your own custom FBX files into this and assign them animations or use them in scenes.”
- “Buy this awesome software for your game, video, and graphic design projects.”
- “Clip maker is a great tool with a lot of features if you want to do quick renders of artwork and short clips. It has a ton of scenes and assets and animations to use, and even the feature to import VRoid models works now. The software itself has great potential, but it does still have a few bugs. Overall, it's a good animation software for smaller animation clips.”
- “However, it falls short in graphics quality and lacks a compelling storyline, unlike its genre counterparts.”

- “Nextly, it causes my 1650 card to run at jet speed like there's a huge draw on the graphics card-- is it trying to run bitcoin mining software or something else or is that just a standard Unity thing?”
