The story mode is generally seen as a brief and somewhat cliché experience, featuring an amnesiac protagonist and a predictable narrative that lacks depth, primarily focusing on romantic tension between two robots. While it effectively introduces the game's unique world and includes a notable plot twist, many players feel it could have been more developed, with the main story lasting only 20-30 minutes. However, the challenge mode offers additional cutscenes that continue the narrative, providing some continuity beyond the main story.
“While the story itself isn't anything breathtaking, it does a good enough job of exploring aspects of this strange new world, which is just as alien to the protagonist as it is to us.”
“Even if the amnesiac protagonist trope is a bit overdone, I did enjoy learning more about the game's setting, especially the plot twist of one of the endings, which I will not spoil.”
“However, the challenge mode does have some cutscenes spread out here and there, which actually pick up where the story left off, so you aren't completely left high and dry with a dead narrative after completing the story mode.”
“The story of the game 'did serve its purpose,' but it's very short, doesn't have much depth outside of the romantic tension between two robots, and gives up on its own narrative when you just find out that 'the mcguffin was a myth and the true mcguffin was the friends you made along the way' or something like that.”
“Story mode has a story written by a teenager and animated by Flickr.”
“And much like everything else, the story has a lot of potential and I really wish there was more!”

The gameplay is praised for its polished and responsive mechanics, particularly the universal dash cancel, which enhances combat fluidity. While the customization options are extensive and allow for significant personal expression, some players feel that the lack of deeper RPG elements and resource management limits the gameplay's depth. Overall, the game offers a satisfying experience with a solid challenge mode and replayability, though it may feel short-lived without a strong multiplayer component.
“The art style is much more appealing, their animation improved a lot from their previous games and the gameplay is also much smoother.”
“With huge amounts of replayability, customization options, and snappy gameplay, it's a must buy in the current scene, especially for its budget price—less than $13.”
“The gameplay, in particular, shines as very polished and responsive, especially once one masters the universal dash cancel mechanic.”
“While I appreciate the addition of challenge mode to mix up the gameplay a bit and unlock more customization items, I feel like the idea could have used more depth.”
“There is no resource management in character creation, no draft, point pool, heat mechanic, or otherwise.”
“Then refund it after 2 hours because you will realize there is no one to play with and the gameplay loop is complete in 20 minutes.”

However, some users noted issues with certain animations and humanoid models that venture into the uncanny valley, resulting in mixed overall impressions. The game has been rated around 7/10 for its visual elements.
“The art style is much more appealing, their animation improved a lot from their previous games, and the gameplay is also much smoother.”
“Nice game, nice graphics, nice combos system.”
“The robot parts, story art, and stages are extremely well crafted, but there are some hitches with animations and the humanoid models fall deep into the uncanny valley.”

The music in the game is highly praised, with many players finding the soundtrack catchy and enjoyable enough to warrant purchasing it. Reviewers express a desire for a broader selection of stages, but overall, the sound quality is rated positively, with scores around 9/10.
“I also quite enjoy the music (enough to purchase the soundtrack), which makes me wish we had more stages to pick from, since the selection we do have is, for the most part, solid.”
“[*][b]Sound: 9/10[/b] - The soundtrack is very catchy, and I found myself whistling it while strolling around more than once.”

Players highlight the game's strong replayability due to its survival elements and the potential for varied opponents, enhanced by customization options. The combination of engaging gameplay and affordability makes it a compelling choice for those seeking a game with high replay value.
“I feel like survival would have made the game infinitely replayable, since no opponent would ever be the same, especially if the developers had added more customization options across the board.”
“With huge amounts of replayability, customization options, and snappy gameplay, it's a must-buy in the current scene, especially for its budget price—less than $13.”
