The game features deliberately retro, low-quality pixel art that appears outdated and lacks detail. Resolution options only scale up these simplistic visuals without enhancing quality, resulting in monotonous and mediocre 2D graphics that many find rough and uninspiring.
- “A choice was made to use obsolete, decades-old retro pixel art as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics.”
- “While there are options to change the resolution for the game, all this does is scale up the simplistic low-quality art assets, which makes little or no difference to the graphics quality.”
- “Without any other substantial graphics tweaks, it's not possible for gamers to improve the mediocre 2D visuals.”
