The graphics are widely praised for being impressive, aesthetically pleasing, and comparable to modern 3D games, providing a high-quality feel unusual for a free or early access title. However, some users note that bugs currently affect the overall experience.
- “I'm writing as this game is in early access, the game has amazing graphics, feeling, and dubbing, but most importantly, it totally does not look like a free game. It feels more like a game for which a small fee would be required; it was really a huge surprise.”
- “They are actually really aesthetically pleasing and on par with something you would see in a modern 3D videogame.”
- “Excellent graphics.”
