The game is widely criticized for its instability, with numerous reports of bugs affecting both singleplayer and multiplayer experiences. Many users describe it as unpolished and unfinished, highlighting issues such as glitches, lag, and game crashes that detract from overall enjoyment.

This game is excellent, and I can tell if they keep up with the same great stuff they have so far, I know I'm going to love the end product. Things I would change include adding online servers so we can meet others who play, and having teleporters work more like a switch so you can summon it, then turn it off with the rune (then cooldown) so I could explore a bit more or do more before it shuts down. I would add more control, but otherwise, I'm happy and bug-free.”
- “Awful, buggy, unfinished mess of a game.”
- “It was way too buggy and laggy to actually do anything.”
- “Just quite unfortunate that it can be rather buggy when playing on multiplayer, like sudden game crashes or weird screen of death.”
