The graphics of the game have been widely praised for their unique and vibrant art style, reminiscent of 90s aesthetics and early CGI, which many players find charming and visually stunning. While the visuals are often described as a standout feature that enhances the overall experience, some reviewers note that the gameplay may not fully match the quality of the graphics, with concerns about the game's depth and content. Overall, the art style and graphics are considered a major draw, making the game appealing to those who appreciate distinctive visual design.
- “It has easily the most unique art style I've ever come across.”
- “The visuals are amazing and unique, and the levels feel so fresh and exciting to explore.”
- “This game has such a fantastic art style with unique gameplay.”
- “If you look beyond the gameplay and its well-crafted aesthetic, the game is unfortunately too barebones to be worth playing.”
- “The worlds are honestly amazing, some areas are empty; in a way, it fits the aesthetic, but in this case, it's simply because it's an early access game.”
- “At its current state, it's also missing several key customization options, such as graphics quality and mappable buttons.”

The gameplay of the game is characterized by its innovative movement mechanics, such as wall running and parkour, which provide a rewarding experience once mastered, though they can be challenging for beginners due to a lack of tutorials and unclear instructions. While the exploration is engaging and the aesthetic is visually appealing, many players find the overall gameplay experience to be flawed, with issues like awkward combat mechanics, bugs, and a lack of content detracting from the enjoyment. Despite these shortcomings, the potential for improvement and the satisfaction of mastering the mechanics keep players hopeful for the game's future development.
- “I absolutely love the movement mechanics and how it looks, but I took a really long time figuring it out, and I had to search it up and keep coming back to the guide.”
- “The controls and game mechanics, while hard to understand at first, are very rewarding and fun as you progress. I cannot understate how fun it is to parkour around the map looking for things to do.”
- “The hopping, wall running, and momentum systems make the gameplay feel incredibly zippy and leave a high margin of error as well as an incredibly high skill ceiling.”
- “If you look beyond the gameplay and its well-crafted aesthetic, the game is unfortunately too barebones to be worth playing.”
- “My problems with the game stem mostly from the fact that almost nothing actually works properly, and that the bosses slow the game down to a crawl in a way that makes the in-depth movement mechanics feel out of place.”
- “Game is cool, it looks good, but there are no settings and no tutorial, so you don't know how to do basic mechanics.”

The music in the game has received widespread acclaim for its atmospheric quality and ability to enhance the overall experience, with many players praising its unique style and fitting themes for various levels.

Overall, the soundtrack is considered a standout feature, contributing significantly to the game's vibrant aesthetic and immersive world.
- “The music is also very good and keeps you in the groove while moving to your next objectives and exploring the large environments.”
- “The original soundtracks are divine and the full game, when finished, will no doubt be an excellent addition to the gaming world!”
- “The movement system is superb, the game world and soundtrack are equally impressive.”
- “The soundtrack might have been trying to imitate older game's music, but it was just like 5 notes on loop forever and after an hour it was driving me insane.”
- “Repetitive music and 0 options screen (hope you like max sensitivity controls with no option to change it :d) will change my review if the game improves, I want this to be an awesome game.”
- “Dying turns off the music, you can clip through floors bouncing, trying to control wall running left or right seems up to luck (I've seen it go the opposite direction of what I'm holding).”
