The gameplay is described as having interesting mechanics and a solid concept, but suffers from implementation issues, such as floaty movement and frustrating mechanics borrowed from other games. While the hardcore platforming and graphics are appreciated, technical shortcomings like resolution settings and pausing issues detract from the overall experience. Despite these flaws, many players find the gameplay enjoyable and immersive.

“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.”

The game lacks significant replayability due to the absence 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.”
