The gameplay is described as having solid mechanics and an interesting concept, but suffers from implementation issues, such as floaty movement and frustrating mechanics borrowed from other games. While the game is immersive and enjoyable overall, technical shortcomings like resolution settings and pausing issues detract from the experience. Despite these flaws, many players find the gameplay fun and engaging.
“Solid hardcore platformer, decent graphics, interesting mechanics, and gameplay in general.”
“I enjoy the concept and the gameplay is fun.”
“It's a very interesting game with very good mechanics, although it needs some details... like resolution and audio settings. Sometimes my mouse goes crazy when I pause the game, and I can't go back, which is a bit annoying. But despite all of this, the game is so immersive that it makes those issues forgettable.”
“Game closes itself after 15 minutes of gameplay. I have an RTX 3060, Intel Core i9 (5 GHz), Windows 10.”
“It seems like the developer took mechanics from other games and just added them in without thinking about what made them good in the context of their original games.”
“The idea of the gameplay is solid, and generally the game itself is okay, but there are definitely shortcomings in the implementation of many gameplay mechanics.”

Overall, the visuals are appreciated, but the issue of artistic integrity has been raised.
“Great graphics and overall art style.”
“I'd say the art style is nice as a simplistic way to create levels fast as a one-man dev, but hey!”

“Looks like he stole the art style too!”

The game has low replayability due to a lack of choices, collectibles, and exploration elements, which limits players' motivation to revisit it.
“There isn't much replayability either, as there isn't any form of choice, collectibles, exploration, etc.”
