The game's stability is heavily criticized, with numerous glitches reported, particularly related to the save system, which often fails and forces players to restart. Users have also experienced issues like falling through the map, indicating that the game is not yet ready for release. Overall, the stability concerns significantly detract from the gaming experience.
- “This game is not ready to be published; too many glitches. A couple of times I tried to save the game, but it didn't work, so I had to start over. The lights sometimes didn't work, so I don't recommend this game.”
- “Update 11/15/2020: I played the game after the update, but the save system is still buggy. I can only save the game twice or so, then I can't save my game anymore and have to play until I die or it crashes. I've fallen through the map a couple of times. Maybe check the save system for a bit because saving is really important in a game, or make an auto-save option.”
