The game has an interesting story and atmospheric music that create a good eerie mood.
Some players found the game fun and enjoyed the unique mechanic of buying bullets and extra lives in-game.
Recent updates improved collision detection, skippable dialogs, smoother movement, and achievable achievements.

Controls are loose and floaty, with sluggish movement and poorly designed double jump requiring precise timing.
Technical issues include lack of resolution customization, partial controller support, bugs like sliding glitches, and severe framerate drops.
Backtracking is excessive, dialogs cannot initially be skipped, hitboxes are vague, and the game's graphics and design feel low quality and generic.

The game's graphics are simple and cartoony, reminiscent of low-effort mobile apps, with no options to adjust resolution or customize settings. While the artwork captures an arcade feel, the overall visual quality is low and lacks the polish expected for a PC game.
- “Only thing I enjoy about this game was the artwork and the way they have added that arcade feel to Fallen.”
- “The game features simple, cartoony 2D graphics, of the type you normally expect to see in low-effort mobile apps.”
- “3D graphics programming requires a degree of skill and competence, and unfortunately not all developers have the budget or talent to deliver this, despite 3D graphics cards hitting the mainstream in the 1990s.”
- “There's no options to change the resolution for the game or customize the graphics settings.”
- “There's no way for gamers to try to improve the low quality graphics.”
- “Considering this is being evaluated as a PC game, having the graphics phoned in like this isn't going to result in a high quality, visually impressive game that PC gamers are used to seeing.”

The story is generally seen as minimal and somewhat unclear, with many describing it as basic or lacking depth. However, some find it interesting, particularly after completing the game, while the gameplay and atmosphere tend to be the main focus. Overall, the narrative serves more as a backdrop than a central element.
- “Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
- “Collision problems are mostly solved, dialog scenes are now skippable, movement feels smoother, soundtracks are good, story is kind of interesting once you beat the game, achievements are now attainable and not frustrating impossible levels (death race).”
- “It has a kind of interesting story.”
- “You run around these similar looking dark levels with random figures flying around hitting switches without much of a story.”
- “The gems also have no story.”
- “I mean, of course it has its ups and downs, but again, in my opinion, it's a pretty cool, fun, and hard indie game, with an alright story.”

The gameplay introduces an interesting buy mechanic for items like bullets and extra lives, adding a fresh element to the platformer. However, some players feel this feature lacks depth, as it’s unclear who the purchases are made from, making the concept feel somewhat underdeveloped.
- “The buy mechanic is interesting gameplay-wise, but at the same time it feels lazy because it's unclear who you are buying the items from.”
- “Overall a nice little platformer that introduces a new mechanic for buying bullets and extra lives in-game.”
